Location description
The beautifully conserved and ancient Moorish town of Ronda with its world famous gorge, oldest bullring in Spain, and delightfully winding cobbled streets is just on your doorstep… as are the charming white Andalucian villages (Pueblos Blancos) typical of the region and where a slower, more traditional way of life still pervades.
Andalusia’s six most visited cities are all within a 1 ˝ - 2 hour drive from the farm. Aristocratic Jerez famed for its sherry, fine horses and flamenco; Cordoba’s breathtaking Mesquita, arab baths and teahouses; Granada’s world famous Alhambra: a vast Moorish fortress-palace complex; Seville for its pervading perfume of orange blossom, its Moorish Alcazar and superb cathedral; Cadiz with its naval history, fresh seafood delicacies and annual carnival and finally Malaga famed for its Moorish Alcazaba fortress, newly opened Picasso museum and vibrant old town…all a short stroll from the beach.

Directions
Leaving Malaga airport head towards Malaga. Once on the main dual carriageway you will soon see a big blue sign for Antequera. Take that turning towards the A331 Antequera road. 1 or 2 kms later you will have to turn off again this time following the sign to Cártama/Universidad A357.
After this turning the road will ‘fly over’ to the Campillos/Cartama road and also to other exits. Just make sure you end up on the A357 Campillos/Cartama road. Carry on driving for about 40kms driving past Ardales village on your left.
About 4kms after Ardales turn off this road on to the A367 Ronda/Teba road which will be marked. Go on for about 7kms until you get to a T junction. Turn left here towards Ronda, which is marked. Carry on for about 36 kms until you arrive at the outskirts of Ronda. At the first roundabout junction/traffic lights turn right on to the A374 Seville road. Do not go into Ronda. Continue on the Seville road for about 6kms until you see a small turning on your right marked Badillo.
There will also be many other hotel signs including a blue Hotel sign for “Hotel Fuente de la Higuera”. Take this turning and follow the road which, after about 1km, will bare left and take you under a small railway bridge. Continue for about 400 metres until the road forks.
Take the left hand fork marked ‘Hotel Fuente la Higuera & Hotel Molino de Arcos’, and after about 200 metres you will come to a small bridge over a little river. Cross it and immediately afterwards take the left hand turning on to a little lane which runs roughly along the river.
After about 1.3kms you’ll come to a big stone wall which curves to the left. Follow it and after about 100 metres the lane turns sharply left. On this bend, opposite, are Finca Retama’s gates. Enter here and the holiday let is at the end of its private 200 metre drive.
If you are coming from other directions follow signs to RONDA. Once you have arrived at the main roundabout with the traffic lights pick up our directions (see above) from there.
