Well the answer is easy, in Casares! The owners of this Country House had been looking everywhere to find a property, surrounded by nature, yet at easy reach of the coast. Both of them work in Estepona. Their search criteria were simple: They wanted a finca with lots of trees, a house where the singing birds would wake them up in the morning, a home where they could truely experience nature, private yet not isolated!
Living in a private forest in Casares
‘We were drawn to the countryside to really experience nature’ says one of the owners. ‘Especially the trees were important to us and this 15.000 m2 plot counts with dozens! You will find all kinds of different oak trees, like the ‘alcornoques’, ‘encinas’, ‘quejigos’ as well as carob trees and of course pine trees. It feels like living in a small private forest.’
Fruit trees are present as well! The land counts with a variety of olive trees, almond and fig trees as well as orange and lemon trees, chirimoyas, avocados and ‘nisperos’. Can you imagine the amount of birds this little forest attracts? Especially now in spring you will be enchanted by the chirping and singing of the birds!
Private but not isolated and close to the beach
The plot is big enough to be absolutely private and to go exploring. There is a little stream that borders the finca, el Tintorero, where you can hear the water running in winter and spring. It gives the finca a magical atmosphere!
The climate is special as well. Due to its proximity to the coast the influence from the sea is noticable. It takes the extreme heat off in summer and the cold in winter. And on top of that, since you are at approximately 400 m above sea level the air is superclean and fresh. The mountains provide this crisp clear air in winter and the green forest provides natural shade and coolness in summer.
Stunning scenery tucked in between natural parcs
Living here means experiencing nature. You actually see the seasons change. After the warm and dry summers the grass starts to grow again after the first raindrops in October, not much later you will see the fantastic colour change of the leaves on the chestnut and walnut trees and the amount of wild flowers in spring are impressive. On top of this the porperty is tucked in between two natural parcs: The Sierra Crestellina and the Sierra Bermeja. Not only do they provide an impressive scenery yet if you like hiking through the mountains this is the place to be!
