THE LODGE is a fully-furnished charming house that is available as a holiday let, self catering, however, we do offer the option of half or full board to overseas visitors.

This is a newly-built house that has been finished to a very high standard. It has two double bedrooms, a bathroom with a large walk-in shower (even a hair-dryer), a large lounge-dining room, a fully equiped kitchen (with washing machine), and a big veranda with a built-in Bar-B-Q (see pictures). There is a HDMI TV, with satellite connection and English channels. DVD player. Outside there is an attached car-port for 2 cars.

THE LODGE stands as a detached property in the same grounds as our own house. We have plenty of space as our land is 4500 square metres, which on one boundary meets the Rio Ceballos River. The land is fully fenced, with access through an electronically operated gate. There is also a beautiful 4 by 9.5 metres swimming pool, exclusively available to our guests. The pool has stunning views of the mountains, for you to enjoy while you swim or sunbathe.

THE LODGE is situated in the Sierras Chicas, Cordoba Province. We are, approximately, 30 miles from the Province capital city: Cordoba....a University city which offers many cultural options as well as colonial buildings. The Sierras Chicas is a perfect area to enjoy mountain tours, by car, bike or walking, bird watching, horse riding, Polo playing, moto-cross, butterfly spotting. Go out for a day trip to see the Andean Condors, go paragliding, fishing, visit some mystical villages that have preserved their historical identity....or (maybe) have UFO and paranormal experiences (if you believe in this!) at the well known, (to UFO followers), "Uritorco Mountain". If you are interested in any activity we haven't mentioned, just ask and we'll organise it for you.
