Rural Boutique Hotel & Restaurant

Set in the fertile Lecrin Valley at the gateway to the Alpujarras, this is a beautifully restored 16th-century mill converted into a flourishing rural hotel and restaurant. Blending heritage, comfort, and Andalusian charm, the estate offers a unique lifestyle and business opportunity. With 16.500 m² of land and over 1,000 m² built, the property combines traditional Andalucian  architecture with extensive guest facilities, established branding, and an enviable reputation.

The complex is arranged around courtyards, gardens and terraces, offering a warm and authentic guest experience:
▪ 15 guest rooms and suites in varied styles, each with en suite bathrooms and traditional décor.
▪ Main Molino building (463 m²) with restaurant, bar, commercial kitchen, dining areas, and guest rooms across three floors.
▪ Two additional accommodation blocks (197 m² and 227 m²) providing further guest rooms with terraces and open views.
▪ Independent library building (42 m²) for relaxation or workshops.
▪ Warehouse (219 m²) used for storage and operations.

The interiors combine original stone walls, wooden beams, and rustic flooring with modern comforts, creating a character-filled yet functional hospitality setting.

Outdoor Living and Facilities

The estate is designed to host both hotel guests, diners and events, with facilities that make the most of the Andalusian climate:
▪ Swimming pool with solarium and shaded terraces.
▪ Landscaped gardens and patios for outdoor dining and weddings.
▪ Large covered marquees for events and workshops.
▪ Stable building and greenhouse offering scope for expansion or alternative uses.
▪ Parking areas for guests and staff.

Land and Setting

The property is set amidst olive groves with views of the Sierra Nevada foothills, offering both privacy and accessibility. The property is laid out in three bands: 

• the lowest band where the hotel facilities are located in lush gardens, and where there is a spacious greenhouse, ideal for growing vegetables for the hotel’s tables.

• a second band with shaded areas, hammocks and an outside hot tub; 

• and the upper band which is left natural and which has formerly housed a horse. There is a stable on this part of the land. Also on this upper part there is space for 4 camper vans to park. There is an overnight charge for them to do so. 

Services

Mains electricity is connected and there is a new 15Kw array of solar panels as the primary energy source. Town water is supplied and the property has two wells for irrigation purposes. Domestic water is heated using solar panels backed up by a gas boiler.

Location

Located a short distance from one of the prettiest villages of the Lecrín Valley, just 25 minutes from Granada city and 30 minutes from the Costa Tropical. The Sierra Nevada ski resort is just over an hour away, while Málaga airport is reachable in 90 minutes. This central location ensures year-round appeal to both national and international visitors.

Lifestyle and Business Potential

The property is a fully operational hospitality business with established branding, website, and client base. It currently functions as:
▪ A boutique rural hotel with excellent reviews and repeat clientele.
▪ A restaurant and bar, popular with locals and visitors alike.
▪ An event venue for weddings, retreats, and workshops.
▪ A base for rural tourism activities such as hiking, cycling, yoga, and wine tourism.

With its scale, facilities, and unique historic character, the property offers immediate continuation of a successful business, as well as scope for expansion — for example in wellness, gastronomy, or destination events.
