Peaceful and beautiful place
The property is amazing with some beautiful scenery. The surrounding area is very quiet and peaceful. Management communicated well throughout. Some of the extra charges are over the top so be careful and make sure to ask beforehand (I.e housekeeping). There are plenty of wasps at the property and specially at the swimming pool area. They make most outdoor activities difficult. It seems that on day one, they come to assess you. On day two, they try to intimidate you and as long as you don’t present a threat, they leave you alone. They are still very annoying and menacing and are constantly in your face. You are not able to enjoy the full potential of the property. If something could be done about the wasps, this will be an amazing place for a break. The gym equipment could do with an update or some lubrication. It would’ve been helpful if the local assistant could speak some English. Overall, we did enjoy our time at this location.

Silencio
Las vistas y la tranquilidad son espectaculares. Dos habitaciones son impresionantes y dos más convencionales. El gimnasio no es operativo. Lo mejor, Reme, la encargada de la casa que lo hace todo fácil.

Traumhafte Lage in absoluter Ruhe
Wir haben die zwei Wochen sehr genossen. Das Ferienhaus liegt Mitten in der Natur. Wer absolute Ruhe sucht ist hier richtig. Der Ausblick ist atemberaubend, der Sternenhimmel beindruckend. Das Ferienhaus ist sehr gut ausgestattet. Der Pool ist recht groß und liegt ebenfalls sehr schön. Das Haus verfügt über mehrere Terrassen von denen man unterschiedliche Weitblicke in die phantastische Landschaft genießen kann. Einziger Kritikpunkt ist der beschriebene Fitnessbereich. Die Geräte sind in die Jahre gekommen und nicht mehr brauchbar. Ansonsten ist die Ausstattung aber sehr gut. Es ist alles da, was man braucht. Zusätzlich gibt es einen Beamer für einen Kinoabend, ausreichend Internet, WLAN im Haus, einen Kicker, verschiedene Gesellschaftsspiele u.v.m. Empfehlen würden wir ein geländegängiges Auto, da der Weg zum Ferienhaus über einen buckeligen Feldweg führt. Der nächste Ort (Montefrio) ist ca. 25 Minuten mit dem Auto entfernt. Granada als nächste größere Stadt ist ca. 50 Minuten entfernt. Wir wurden sehr gut betreut. Am ersten Abend hat die gute Seele des Hauses Reme für uns eine Paela gemacht. Wenn wir ein Problemchen hatten, haben wir Reme per WhatsApp angeschrieben und kurze Zeit später war Sie bei uns. Das hat alles prima geklappt. Wir waren mit insg. 8 Personen vor Ort, haben uns hervorragend entspannt und sehr, sehr wohl gefühlt!

Wonderful Stay in Corijo Buijo
We have just spent two wonderful weeks at Corijo Buijio. The villa offered everything we could need in terms of cooking and entertainment. A well equipped kitchen, a lovely swimming pool, ping pong table and great outdoor dining space. We felt very fortunate to be up in the mountains, as there was always a cool breeze in the evenings and never felt too hot. We had Reme come in two nights to cook supper for us. It was a real treat and absolutely delicious. My son is still talking about the Paella. Location wise, the villa is completely secluded, quiet and very peaceful with views of Sierra Neveda and lots of olive trees. We were able to reach Granada in an hour and Cordoba in 1 hour 20 minutes. Both definitely worth a visit. We also went to Rio Frio (35 minutes away), where you can visit the Caviar center and if you book in advance take a tour of the Caviar river area. Fishing also possible here, but a permit must be obtained from a local authority, nearest in Loja. Our only slightly negative feedback is the number of wasps. They come out in the evenings and do not disappear until night fall. This is very off putting whilst you are having supper in such a magical spot.

Wonderful, peaceful, lovely Cortijo
We have had an amazing 2 weeks at Cortijo Bujio. There were 8 of us, 4 adults and 4 children. We had plenty of room in this fabulous place. The Cortijo is only a 15 minute drive from Montefrio, but feels as though you're in the middle of nowhere. The views are stunning and the pool is amazing. The house is lovely and we stayed cool enough despite the weather being very hot-the house is quite high up in the hills and there is often a breeze. The rooms are excellent and the kitchen is very well appointed although we spent most of our time by the pool or on the terraces. On a couple of nights we arranged for the housekeeper to come and cook. As well as being the most lovely lady she is an incredible cook, but make sure you've got a big appetite! We had no issues, but any questions we asked, by email, of the owners were answered immediately. Granada airport is half an hour's drive and the Alhambra another 20 minutes further on. If you are looking for a quiet, peaceful holiday in a comfortable, beautiful place away from it all then this is for you!

Hello, I am Robert. I studied economics in Berlin, Hong Kong and New Haven. I currently live in Berlin and founded my own start up there two years ago.

Why they chose this property

My family bought Cortijo Bujio in 2017. We fell in love with Granada many years ago. With its breathtaking views of the surrounding hills and snow-capped peaks of the Sierra Nevada, Cortijo Bujio is an oasis of tranquility. Our beautifully renovated 1877 estate is located in the Parapanda Mountains, 1,300 meters above sea level, nestled among olive groves and old Spanish oak forests. Lovingly restored and beautifully furnished, our Cortijo captures the magic of the Moorish influence we love so much.
