Set on the banks of the Río Guadiaro and at the foot of the Sierra de Grazalema mountains, this lush Spanish country estate is a true oasis that benefits from the valley’s unique microclimate.

The Spanish property was built on the site of a Roman villa from the first century, and the Roman ruin of a “columbarium” can still be seen next to the house.

The cortijo, a farmhouse or traditional rural dwelling found in the southern half of Spain, has been meticulously restored by the renowned designer Duarte Pinto Coelho, creating an elevated living experience with Andalusian soul.

Built around a traditional Spanish patio, El Cortijo del Moro offers 4 bedrooms and 5 baths, with a spacious master suite on the ground level that opens out to a private landscaped Mediterranean garden.

Amenities include a gourmet kitchen with Miele and Gaggenau appliances, a wine cellar, and a spa area with gym, Turkish bath and jacuzzi.

The elegantly appointed living spaces have been beautifully restored and feature authentic beamed ceilings and large windows that open out onto the covered porch and a swimming pool area, offering beautiful mountain views.

Nestled in 69 acres of lush grounds, the cortijo comes with a fenced area with a horse shelter, a chicken coop, and an organic vegetable garden, in addition to a palm tree grove.

Close to Andalusia’s famous white villages and just a 3 minute drive from the Cortes de la Frontera railway station, Cortijo del Moro is just 50 minutes to the historical town of Ronda, and just over an hour to Gibraltar international airport.

An outstanding country estate, with its designer-appointed residence and beautifully landscaped grounds, Cortijo del Moro has been one of the best-kept secrets in green Andalusia—until now.
