Cortijo Las Sasosa, Los Matreros
Set upon the slopes of the Sierra de Los Filabres, which lead down to the beautiful beaches and coves of the Andalucian coast line, Las Sasosa is a rural cortijo in rustic and wonderfully peaceful surroundings.
Las Sasosa is an old farmhouse which has been lovingly restored to its original country charm. It is furnished with a perfect fusion of contemporary and rustic, set against hand cast terracotta tiles, whitewashed walls, shuttered windows and beamed willow ceilings.
Experience the wild beauty of Spain from the villa, with the private terrace, pool and barbecue. The nearby rugged coastline presents handfuls of secluded beaches and coves that can be explored in solitude, especially in off peak seasons. More popular beaches are still relatively undiscovered around the area of mojacar playa and the quaint spanish town of Garrucha.
Sample the local cuisine in the nearby village of Bedar or venture to the elegant Spanish restaurants in Vera and Turre. Fresh seafood in the restaurants in fishing village Garrucha also worth a taste. For nightlife check out Mojacar Playa with its trendy bars, clubs and restaurants. Or simply stay at home and enjoy the peaceful haven that is Las Sasosa.
