800 ha sized lakeside
wildlife park
Dreams do come true! Have you ever dreamt of riding a wonderful
Andalusian without regulating groups or strict agendas? Let us fulfil your dreams.
Spanish
horses have a long tradition of every day farm work and game warding. On this
800 ha large Finca the horses are used for herding sheep, surveilling the iberian
wild pigs, checking the fences and especially controlling game animals.
As
the horses have to go "cross-country" during their chores they are extremely
sure-footed and of a calm disposition. Shying deer or fluttering partridges are
no scare. The wild animals are used to the riders and this allows for great observing
from one of the many gametrails.
A few guided rides at the beginning of your
stay will get you acquainted with"your"horse and the area. From then
on you are free to go on outings in groups or alone to over 100 km of signposted
riding and hiking trails and 80 km of soft cork paths. A reservoir and a river
are within 15 min. riding distance. The perfect place to wade or actually go swimming
with your horse. Often enough non-riders will join the group for a campfire, a
barbecue or just a short hiking break. Outside the finca you can also take several
long rides to the next village ( 30 km ). These old cattle trails lead you through
different estates, olive groves and cork oak forests. Have some tapas and vino
tinto in the village before heading back.
The finca Cerillares is about an
hours drive northeast from Sevilla, in an undeveloped area near a reservoir (
swimming allowed ).
Accomodations consist of 10 apartments for 2 or 4
persons. They are of comfortable size each with a living-room area, 1 or 2 bedrooms,
a kitchenette with a microwave, coffee maker, sink, fridge and satellite T.V.
Every room has central heating.
The flats are grouped around 2 large patios
with olive, orange and laurel trees and an atrium: a typical andalusian style
of building. Each apartment has its own terrace with deckchairs, a sun shade and
garden furniture. Ideal for sunbathing, reading or just dreaming. |
