"Rest, retreat and restoration in a Christian Setting"
Cortijo Carranque is a rural Holiday and Retreat House - an ideal location for those who enjoy peace and quiet, surrounded by beautiful countryside and abundant wildlife.
Nestling in the rolling Andalucían foothills, surrounded by abundant citrus orchards, Cortijo Carranque, with its “dove-cote” tower, is a 400 year-old farmstead which has recently been lovingly restored to provide a beautiful, spacious house with many unique features.
The rural hamlet of Carranque, near Coín, Malaga, is a place where the rhythm of life continues much as it has done for centuries, revolving around the changing seasons: winter rainfall and summer irrigation, spring-time orange harvest and autumn olive harvest. There may be a few more cars than 50 years ago, and tractors and trailers are gradually replacing the donkeys and carts, but the place still retains its ambience of peace and tranquillity.
