Holiday studio for rent in Ronda

Casa Canada Real is a 17th Century Inn on the Camino Real. The Camino is the ancient route from Jerez to Ronda for shepherds and their flocks although nowadays only parts of the Camino remain, this part is still very much in use for livestock and is a public footpath for ramblers and naturalists as well. This can still be walked from here into Ronda and is also a route to Old Ronda and the Roman Archeological site of Acinipo.

Amidst the mountain oak trees (a protected species) and in a small canyon with river running through, it is situated 12 Kms from Ronda off the Seville Road, although in Malaga Province it is ideally located close to the Cadiz border and is surrounded by National Parkland, including the famous Grazelema, which accords this property spectacular views of the surrounding mountains.

There is a garden flat attached to this large house just 15 mins drive from Ronda, comprising 4 private terraces, ranging from the private entrance off the Camino with magnificent panaroma across the canyon towards the peaks of Grazelema, down a few steps to the entrance of the flat. Both terraces have shade and sun and can be used for relaxing, al fresco dining, or watching the eagles and vultures soaring overhead.

The Barbecue terrace and pool/sun terrace are accessed down a sweeping stone stairway leading directly from the accommodation. Surrounded by mature acacia and pine trees, some over 100 years old, the feeling is of being in a woodland.

The interior comprises of an open plan living/sleeping area with double bed, two armchairs and a fixed foldaway table for indoor dining. The fitted cupboard and wardrobe covered with old pine doors are built into a recess which was the original entrance to the courtyard of the Inn. The newly fitted kitchen and bathroom are through an archway off the living area. All rooms have windows with wooden shutters and in the lounge there are antique wooden and stud double doors leading on to the terrace. All windows and the doors are fitted with insect screens. The spanish style wood and wrought iron furniture is handmade in the Philippines and was shipped out by the owner.

It can get chilly in the evenings and early mornings as we are situated approx 3000 ft above sea level. In the winter it can snow as this area is surrounded by the Sierra Nieves Biosphere, Serrania de Ronda mountain range and the Grazelema peaks rising nearly another 1000 ft above . From the Camino Ronda is seen resplendent on the Gorge. At anytime of day it is a spectacular sight.
