Finca Mirlo Blanco

About Finca Mirlo Blanco

Finca Mirlo Blanco sits in its own grounds of some 7 acres high up in the hills close to the village of Guaro commanding the most spectacular views across the almond and olive clad slopes of The Sierra de las Nieves, but at the same time is only 20 minutes from Marbella and the Costa del Sol.

This charming one bedroomed bodega is attached to, but completely separate from, the owners house ( they are not always in residence) and is extremely private and secluded with its own two patios, one in full sun and the other in the shade.

Steps from the parking area lead you down across the first patio to the front door. This opens onto a charming rustic style kitchen and dining area. The kitchen is well equipped with a fridge, gas hob, combination microwave with oven and grill plus a good selection of crockery, glasses and cookware. An archway takes you through to the delightful and comfortable living room where you will find a satellite t.v.a video player, music centre and a WiFi connection.

From the living room a door opens into the double bedroom which has a double brass bed and a very good sized fitted wardrobe. The full bathroom leads off the bed room.

Outside a short path takes you from the shady patio, which is provided with four chairs and a table for alfresco dining, to a patio in full sun where there are sunbeds and a barbeque. A few steps lead you onto the pretty garden where the well maintained swimming pool is set, surrounded by the most wonderful natural scenary.

Finca Mirlo Blanco has been designed and furnished with ease and relaxation in mind and is an excellent combination of comfort and rustic charm. A very efficient gas heater (fuel included) makes this an ideal and cosy winter retreat as well as being a perfect and quite delightful summer holiday home. A good selection of books and videos have been thoughtfully provided.

Owner's Tips

The village of Guaro is about 1km away from Finca Mirlo Blanco. It is a typical friendly Andalucian village and here you will be able to find all your daily requirements along with a selection of tapas bars. Monda is a larger village roughly 7 minutes away by car and boasts a Gun and Country Club, a Moorish Castle and a variety of bars and restaurants.

The countryside surrounding Finca Mirlo Blanco offers some beautiful, peaceful and relaxing walks and for bird watching enthusiasts there is much to get excited about as Booted Eagles, Short Toed Eagles, Griffon Vultures, Beeaters and Nightingales are just a few of the species you can expect to see.

If you tire of all the peace and tranquility then a 20 minute drive will take you to the cosmopolitan holiday resort of Marbella on the Costa del Sol with all the shops, restaurants, beautiful beaches and nightlife associated with that area.

Going inland there is yet more to see and explore with the historic town of Ronda, about one and a half hours away plus many picturesque villages and much lovely scenary on the way.

About us
My name is Ruth Polak and I live with my family near to the village of Casares in the mountains of Andalucia. We bought a run down Finca of 30,000 sq m. of land in 1992 and my husband, being a builder, renovated and built the house up.

I began renting an apartment on our Finca and our house in the village of Casares about 6 years ago and since then I have taken on other peoples villas and apartments to rent for them.

I thoroughly enjoy helping people to organize their holidays and using my knowledge of the area to help them to get the most out of their holiday on the Costa del Sol. I also work closely with my owners to ensure that their properties offer holiday makers good quality accommodation at reasonable prices.

What we love about our property
I hand pick all of the properties I represent to ensure that they offer good quality and value for money and hope that you have a very enjoyable holiday on the Costa del Sol.

Year we bought the property: 1992
