It is situated about 200 meters above sea level, bordering to the north the LOS ALCORNOCALES NATURAL PARK, at the foot of the SIERRA DE OJEN, with magnificent views over the STRAIT OF GIBRALTAR and the BAY OF ALGECIRAS.
Due to its altitude, it enjoys a milder climate for summer stays, which inspired the construction and layout of the estate. The estate has direct access from the national highway A-7 (formerly C.N. 340 from Cádiz to Barcelona). It is excellently located just a few kilometers from Tarifa and its beaches, and a short distance from Algeciras, Gibraltar, Sotogrande, Costa del Sol, etc.
