About this property

The rural accommodation "La Cateta" is part of the Arroyovil Estate dating back to the 17th Century. Set among hundred year old olive trees and holm oak covered hills, you will be able to enjoy the total peace and tranquillity of the area. Just a few kilometres away, you will find the monumental Cities of Úbeda and Baeza, and the Oil Museum, in the Laguna Estate.

During the months of November and December you are welcome to join in with the olive collecting process, and try our own extra virgin olive oil "Conde de Argillo", some bottles of which are given to our guests as presents. La Cateta has an apartment for six people in the Sierra Nevada ski resort in Granada, which is only an hour away.

Peaceful, beautiful, rustic farmhouse stay

We had a nice time staying at this property. It is peaceful and lovely. We stayed here for a paragliding competition at 7 Pilillas between Pegalajar and Mancha Real. We found that it worked well for us :) The nearest grocery store is about 20 minutes away in Mancha Real. We cooked dinner at the house most nights, and we had everything we needed. The accommodations are simple and not luxurious. You will find it's not perfectly clean and there may be flies and ants sometimes. It is a rustic old farmhouse, not a luxury accommodation. For us, this was good! The beds were firm and comfortable. We enjoyed the outdoor porch area. There is actually no pool. They should update the listing. The pool was empty and looked like it had not been used in a long time. The host was nice and helpful. Thank you for a good stay.

Stayed 12 nights in May 2023

Muy buena experiencia

La casa es, sin duda, impresionante. El trato dispensado por Elena, de lo más amable y cordial. Antonio nos hizo una interesantísima visita guiada por la fábrica y la embotelladora de aceite. Una estancia, en resumen, inolvidable que recomendamos encarecidamente. Lo único que consideramos mejorable son las indicaciones de acceso, algo confusas si no se conoce la zona.

Unos dias de descanso...

Estuvimos descansando en La Cateta esta Semana Santa con mi familia, y aunque no nos hizo buen tiempo, la pasamos estupendamente. Los dueños son encantadores, nos enseñaron la fábrica de aceite y nos explicaron como se producía, interesantísimo. También nos obsequiaron con una botella del aceite que ahí producen que es una maravilla. Muy cerca de allí esta el Museo del Aceite y también hicimos una visita. En resumen, que nos ha encantado, que en el sitio se respira tranquilidad y que tenemos pensado volver en otoño

Un entorno estupendo para ir en pareja

He estado esta navidad unos días con mi marido, y ha sido una maravilla. El entorno no puede ser más bonito, y además hemos coincidido con la recolección de la aceituna. Nos enseñaron como trabajan, la fábrica...todo. En resumen, un buen lugar para escaparte en pareja o en grupo! Volveremos en primavera que nos han dicho que hace un tiempo estupendo

¡fantástico!

Estuvimos mi familia y yo en La Cateta y nos pareció un lugar excepcional con mucho encanto, se respira paz y tranquilidad. Dimos largos paseos por la finca que la rodea y nos llevamos las bicicletas cosa que os recomiendo si os gusta, ¡una maravilla!, además está tan cerquita de Jaén que se puede bajar a cenar o a comer tranquilamente en alguno de sus estupendos restaurantes.Desde luego una cura para el cuerpo y la mente. La casa es una monada, tiene de todo hasta chimenea, y los guardeses te dejan pan recién hecho y bolleria a primera hora de la mañana en la puerta para desayunar cuando te levantes. Nosotros lo recomendamos. Margarita
