About Finca el Moro
Finca el Moro is a charming family run farm, hidden away in a peaceful valley in Southern Spain. The farmhouse and 3 traditional stone cottages are set in 70 acres of land with sweet chestnut, cork trees and olive groves.
Each cottage has a swimming pool and pretty terraces that overlook the hay meadows and glades of ancient cork trees. Idyllic spots for watching the sun go down over the rolling hills, listening to the bird song and star gazing.
The Finca is also home to Andalusian horses and guests can take day rides, a wonderful way to explore the region.
Retreat programme
Built on the centuries old threshing circle, Finca el Moro's fully equipped shala is breathtaking. Nestled amongst the trees, it offers panoramic views and constant birdsong.
Lara will offer a Scaravelli inspired retreat with classes each morning and evening in this magical space. The classes will be suitable for all levels and yoga experience.
Each day will begin with a morning class of meditation, pranayama, somatic movements, chanting and asana. The afternoon class will be a more restorative class to delve deeper into the postures. Between yoga classes there will be the chance to explore the surroundings or simply relax.
Things to do
The peaceful location lends itself perfectly to a week of rest and rejuvenation. There will be time set aside each day, between yoga classes, to simply relax by the pool or take a massage with a local therapist.
You can also head out for long walks to take in the stunning beauty of the countryside or get a feel for local life in the traditional village of Los Marines, a 45 minute walk away. A day ride on the Finca's very own Andalusian horses is also a magical way to explore.
Accommodation & food
Finca el Moro offers comfortable and charming accommodation in three traditional stone cottages each with their own kitchen, living area, swimming pool and terraces.
There are double, twin and triple rooms and a very limited number of single occupancy rooms. All have en-suite bathrooms.
Throughout the day you will be offered a delicious vegetarian brunch after morning yoga and dinner each evening. The meals are prepared using the Finca's own organic produce as well as locally sourced ingredients.
Tea and coffee making facilities are included in each cottage and the Finca's farm shop is stocked with snacks if you are looking for something between meals.
