Cortijo Rural Bacares

Cortijo Rural Bacares is a traditional farm where the buildings have been converted into three rural guest houses. These can be rented together or individually (Bacares I, II and III). All the accommodation currently available corresponds to the different facilities the farm had when it was operational: house, pens, hay lofts and pigsties. The traditional construction method and original materials were respected when they were restored.

The themed rooms in these houses stand out in particular and have been based on the natural resources in the area, i.e. what a farming family used in their immediate surroundings, while the furniture is comprised of restored and reused pieces of furniture that tell the story of farming.

Company’s commitment to conservation of biodiversity and local development

At Cortijo Rural Bacares we take a number of actions to minimise our impact:

We’re fighting against the desertification of the local area through our project to plant 20,000 trees with our own resources in different parts of the municipality.
We reuse and restore materials in a clear and decisive commitment to using resources and the environment sensibly.
We use clean energy thanks to installing solar panels for both electricity and hot water consumption.
We promote local culture through our themed rooms.
We contribute to the local economy in three ways: firstly, by purchasing everything the business needs from local shops, secondly, by recruiting the staff we need from the local area, and thirdly, by encouraging our guests to buy and consume products from local establishments.
