La Bobadilla Hotel

In the very heart of Andalusia, among the legendary Cities of Granada, Córdoba, Málaga and Sevilla, lies this magnificent 1,000-acre private country estate sanctuary. Reminiscent of a romantic recreation of a tiny Moorish Village with its own Mediterranean Chapel, the Hotel's rambling sections are interconnected by a labyrinth of quaint overhangs, flowering courtyards, vaulted passageways and a soaring marble colonnade.

La Bobadilla is not just a Hotel, it is a philosophy created by Jesús del Valle, an architect from Granada. It is bucolic and exquisite. This private, 350 hectares estate of varied and unspoiled countryside has rolling hills and valleys covered with wild flowers and fragrant culinary herbs, forests of Holm-oaks, olive groves and almond tree orchards, it is a paradise for animals, birds and game.
