Posada Finca La Fronda

A little rural hotel in the Sierra de Aracena

The situation of the Posada Finca La Fronda is quite simply a paradise for nature lovers, located in one of the remote corners of Spain, the province of Huelva at the far western end of Andalucia. Deep in the heart of the Sierra de Aracena & Picos de Aroche Natural Park,

the hotel is right out in the country, with spectacular views all around. Posada Finca La Fronda is also a 10 hectare working farm mainly cultivating cork oaks and edible chestnut trees.

Starting from a run-down farm with even more run-down buildings, owners Charles and Reyes have brought the place to life, at the same time putting considerable effort into incorporating the building into the surrounding environment, using rustic exposed brickwork,aged tiles and warm colours. The building is ranged in a U around a typical Andaluz central patio where there are orange trees and a pond stocked with fish. Out in the garden there is a swimming pool with fantastic views and an ample sun terrace, while covered terraces provide shady sitting areas.

The hotel has two sitting rooms, one large and comfortable and the other smaller and more intimate. There are seven bedrooms, most with king-size double beds, one with twin beds and one very large one fully adapted for a disabled guest. For even more space and privacy, one or two of the bedrooms can be combined with the smaller sitting room to provide a one or two bedroom suite.

Restaurant:

Charles and Reyes are proud of their ample breakfasts. For a small extra charge, they can provide a cooked English breakfast or a local speciality Jabugo breakfast including world famous Jabugo air-cured ham. In the evening, if you don't feel like going out to visit one of the numerous excellent restaurants in the area, the hotel will provide a light meal of your choice.

A Word From the Owner:

“We bought Finca la Fronda in the year 2000 with the intention of taking early retirement in this Sierra we love so much. This was after a working life in England, Peru, Germany and many years in Madrid, Spain. We moved here in 2004 and set about creating the Posada “Finca la Fronda” in an effort to make the farm profitable and give other nature lovers the opportunity of enjoying this little paradise."
