Cortijo rental near Seville for large groups: up to 30 people in the Sierra Norte

Cortijo Los Tomillares is an Andalusian cortijo rented in its entirety to groups of 10 to 30 people, 1 h 15 min from Seville, in the heart of the Sierra Norte de Sevilla Natural Park (a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve and Starlight Reserve). Nine double bedrooms, a loft for the kids, a 13×8 m infinity pool facing the hills and 250 private hectares with nobody else around.

For more than ten years it has been rented mostly by groups of friends with children, large families and celebrations. More than 200 Google reviews with an average of 4.7 tell the story better than we can.

Who this cortijo is for

  • Several families with children. A loft for about 12 kids (the "sleepover" of the reviews), playground, giant trampoline, games room with billiards, table football and table tennis, and a farm with goats and hens: mornings are for milking and collecting eggs.
  • Groups of friends. Large living rooms with a fireplace, a big kitchen with a semi-professional coffee machine, stone barbecue, griddle, wood-fired oven and paella pan. Smart TV with sports channels. And the pool with its Balinese bed for the afternoons.
  • Celebrations and family reunions. Birthdays, anniversaries, cousins' get-togethers, stag and hen weekends. Absolute privacy: the house sits at the top of the estate, 4 km from the village, with no neighbours.
  • Retreats and company groups. Nine bedrooms, WiFi across the estate, room to work and silence. If you need catering or activities, we'll put you in touch with local providers.
