Casas Rurales Las Tobas - Self-catering apartments in Huelva
Ctra. Estación de la Junta Km 2, 21220 Higuera de la Sierra, Huelva
Andalusia,
Spagna
This back-to-nature retreat, just an hour north of Seville, is wrapped in ancient landscape: six hectares of Mediterranean dehesa (pasture) peppered with mature holm and cork, mighty oaks, wild olive trees and limestone rocks. You're in the heart of the Sierra de Aracena and Picos de Anoche Natural Park, where kites, eagles and vultures are commonly seen. At night, stars blanket the skies, thanks to a total lack of light pollution.
Three whitewashed, one-storey properties, built using local stone, are privately positioned to soak up panoramic valley views. Each includes two bedrooms (a double and a twin), a spotless shower room, compact kitchen and an open-plan living/dining room, plus a shaded outdoor space with a barbecue and bench on the gravel.
Days will be spent feeling languid, lounging in the shade of the trees or floating in the shared pool. You're just 2km from the local village for restaurants, a bakery and weekly market.

Local points of interest from Carlos Roldán Ordóñez:
Punti d'interesse locali da
Carlos Roldán Ordóñez:
- Share with the locals the walk from Las Tobas to Higuera and enjoy authentic moments of rural Andalusian life, while enjoying the calm landscape.
- Take your time while having breakfast in the sun and listening to the birds singing, and after 50 minutes drive, enjoy Seville, the city/monument that will make you fall in love.
- Pay attention to Bilbo Baggins: ‘It is dangerous, Frodo, to cross your door. You put your foot in the road, and if you don't watch your step, you never know where it may lead you. And immerse yourself in the immense network of paths in our Natural Park.
- Prepare your palate to savour the local cuisine of the famous Iberian pig. In restaurants, markets, bars... or at the Las Tobas barbecue, you can enjoy the best acorn-fed Iberian ham and the tastiest meats. As well as mushrooms, cheeses, stews, wines...
- Do you want to see the most impressive places in the region? Villages, caves, castles, viewpoints, birds... We will give you all the information you need! And if you prefer, we have the best local nature and culture guides to accompany you.
- Come up to our ‘era’ and enjoy the night sky awarded as a Starlight Reserve. 360º views in one of the skies with the least light pollution in Spain. The sensation is unique.
