Charming spacious barn with swimming pool in beautiful tranquil scenery

Our beautiful barn is in its own grounds of 1 hectare at Finca al-manzil. It has its own entrance and complete privacy.
Furnished with care, interesting objects and paintings.
Really spacious with upstairs bedroom, a double height sitting/dining room of 45m2 with sofa, armchairs, dining for 6; wood burning stove; plenty of books and dvds, smart t.v.; fully equipped kitchen with door to terrace with outside dining table on covered porch. A wood burning stove keeps the whole space really cosy in the cooler months.
Sunny bathroom with roomy shower and views of meadow.
Long covered terrace with views over the olive groves and up to the peaks, a lovely place for dining and watching the birds.
The grounds surround the barn for complete privacy, a magical copse of old holm oaks are perfect for hammock siestas and star gazing dinners in the
warm, clear Extremadura nights.
Lovely walks in all directions. FANTASTIC FOR BIRD WATCHING... an eagle owl is nesting in the woods, flocks of azure winged magpies, magical hoopoes plus the usual eagles, hawks and griffin vultures circling up in the crags.
A path leads from the barn to the wonderful pool surrounded by beautiful shrubs and extensive views.
The pool is shared with the cortijo of Finca al-manzil IF it is rented but it is in its own special place not belonging to either house, there is plenty of space and privacy for everyone and the barn has its own private terrace with loungers and shade. Pool opens on May 15.

Wir wohnten im August 2019 3 Wochen in der Scheune. Sehr liebevoll umgebautes und eingerichtetes Objekt in wunderschöner, ruhiger Umgebung. Idealer Ausgangspunkt für Wanderungen, ebenso für Ausflüge in die schönsten Städte der Extremadura. Pippa und Manfred sind sehr freundliche und umsichtige Gastgeber. Herzlichen Dank für die nette Aufnahme in der Scheune.
