Old flour mill, restored and enabled as a rural house for holiday tourism, located in Sayalonga, in the province of Málaga, Andalusia.
The mill was built on the ruins of a medieval construction burned in 1572 by its owners during the conquest period. The result of the restoration has been this rural house whose walls convey confidence due to their resistance to the passage of time, while ensuring protection against climatic excesses. They highlight the rustic decoration that harmonizes with the environment, while showing respect for the past in the conservation of traditional elements.
The generosity of its square meters makes it ideal for hosting large groups of family and friends. The rural house is the combination of two large rural houses, each with 20 beds and can be rented in its entirety or separately.
Both rural houses have a perfectly equipped kitchen, large living rooms with fireplace, dining room with a large table so that all guests can eat at the same time and enjoy happy after-dinner meals. Of the 25 bedrooms, one has a double bed, while all the others have single beds. One of the bedrooms has a private bathroom and is fully adapted for people with reduced mobility.
All bedrooms have an electric radiator, the use of which has an extra cost.
Its privileged exterior is honored by the passage of the Sayalonga River, with the vegetation and fauna that accompany it, and that have politely offered to be your hosts during these vacation days. For your leisure moments, on the terraces you will find a basketball court, swimming pool and barbecue.
Access from the town is possible through a 1.5km lane, of which 750 meters are concreted and the rest is dirt lane.
For large group reservations, please remember that the house can only be accessed by vans with a maximum of 9 people, as it is located after a bridge that makes maneuvering difficult for a bus.
According to the owner, private parties such as birthdays or weddings can be held for the end user. Macro holiday celebrations are prohibited.

The drive to the house was terrifying, we had people cancel day trips and plans because they didn’t want to drive the road to the house. One of my family refused to go in the car to Sayalonga and walked to the town every single time to avoid the scary drive. We were unable to use both pools on any of the days, it was one or the other and they were cloudy for most if not all of our stay. Not enough washing machines, refrigerator space, beds were uncomfortable, no a/c in the house, we had to buy about 20 fans so people could sleep. It was a nightmare and has tarnished VRBO for me personally. I have lost trust in your site. Shocking really

Die drei schönsten Tage unseres Lebens in einem einzigartigen Haus und Umfeld.
Ein perfekter Ort, um mit Freunden und Familie zu teilen.
Die anderthalb Kilometer der Straße, wenn es langsam geht, sind kein Problem.

Sehr großes Anwesen mit 23 Schlafzimmern, die mit Einzelbetten ausgestattet sind, 2 Pools, 2 großen Outdoortischen und 2 großen Tafeln indoor. Wir haben beide Häuser mit 40 Personen für ein Teamevent belegt und waren sehr zufrieden mit der Lage und dem Haus an sich.
Die Ausstattung der Küche & die Stühle für außen gehören sich erneuert, dafür waren die Pools super sauber und genau so wie auf den Bildern.
Kommunikation mit der Vermieterin vorab tadellos - Anfahrt etwas abenteuerlich aber haben wir mit 6 VW-Bussen auch hinbekommen ;)
