Los
Millares is located in the centre of a 10,000 hectare
shooting estate, covered in stone oak trees and vast
meadows of wild flowers and despite its slightly remote
location, it is well worth finding. We have stayed in
so many hotels in Spain over the last three years, each
one totally unique, this one was by far, one of the
very best.
You
will find Los Millares just above Ayamonte and Huelva,
close to the border with Portugal, in one of the most
peaceful settings in Spain. If you enjoy the countryside
and want to unwind, then this is the place to be.
The
cortijo is a working farm and still produces its own
Iberian pigs and sheep for sale all over Europe. During
your stay, the huge estate is yours to explore either
on horseback, by cycle or in one of the farms 4x4 vehicles.
If you stayed here for a year you would not see all
the estate. |

The
estate also has a selection of lakes for fishing. The
lakes are well stocked and fishing tackle can be provided.
During
the hunting season the hotel organises its own shoots.
The hotel has its own stables with horses for use on
the estate.
The
hotel has a spacious and comfortable lounge with a log
fire in the winter months, a games room with a pool
table, two bars and a restaurant.

One
thing you notice about the hotel is the friendly atmosphere
and the staff will make you feel welcome the minute
you arrive. You will receive individual treatment at
Millares.
The
restaurant serves a wide selection of quality meals
at very reasonable prices. Many of the meals comprise
of their own produce, such as the highly recommended
pork or lamb chops.
The
cortijo has been tastefuly furnished throughout with
period furniture and all the rooms are decorated with
various hunting trophies and pictures.

Our
opinion
One of the best hotels we have stayed in during our
three years and we would recommend Cortijo Los Millares
to anyone. The staff were very friendly and are dedicated
to the satisfaction of the guests. We didn´t want
to leave.
The
hotel is totally unique and benefits from a beautiful,
peaceful setting which will always remain unspoilt.
Everywhere you look you will see wildlife in its natural
habitat.
