    We went with a group of friends in November and we were very comfortable in the country house. The vacation home does not have great luxuries but it has everything you need to enjoy the company of friends. Good fireplace and plenty of firewood, good grilled chops and good chats by the fire. We did not lack for anything. The owner was very attentive but not hovering. Country houses Jaen

    This summer we have been in this rustic farmhouse for a whole week and we have found ourselves very comfortable. The house had everything and the owners were very nice. During our stay we made routes that were close to the holiday home and when we got to the pool, we paid for a dip and dinner. I recommend this accommodation for families and couples, as is our case. In addition, the rural house has a good location surrounded by nature. Country houses Jaen

    On the December long weekend we decided to make a rural getaway with two other families and we went to the Sierra Magina Natural Park, in total we were 12 people between adults and children. By chance we found this tourist house and the truth is that it was lucky. We rented the two full houses that are nearby, both were very clean and well equipped and the heating worked great. With the kids we did two excursions in the surroundings, one in the direction of the television repeater, which has spectacular views and we were lucky enough to meet two deer, the kids were amazed.

    We stayed with a group of friends for a rental weekend in June. We had two houses facing each other and the truth is wonderful. Between the pool and paddle tennis we spent the weekend, although we had time to do paintball next to the reservoir (this part is very fun and recommended to end the vacation with a multi-adventure). We also went down to the town for dinner and lunch and they treated us very well in one of the bars (Bar La Unión). Charming cottages Jaen

    We are a family with two children and we have been at Easter. Despite the bad weather that has hit us almost every day, we have been very good. The holiday home is very good, clean and has everything. The farm also has everything: ping pong table, barbecue, swimming pool and paddle tennis court. The owners are very attentive. We had a little problem with the fridge and they came right away to change it. Charming cottages Jaen

    This rustic accommodation is just 2 kilometers from the center of Pozo Alcón, a small town with a lot of life and charm that we wanted to visit. The owners have shared their extensive knowledge about the area with us, helping us to organize our trip during the days of July in which we have stayed. The most complete tourist home in every way, a huge proche to be able to have lunch and dinner with a large table, and then small details that greatly improve the stay of several days, such as the super pool, the children's park area , the fireplace in the great room, a tremendous oven and of course the table football in which we have had a great time.

    We spent 3 days coinciding with the weekend in the month of March, with my family. It is a unique place surrounded by olive trees and right next to the river. You breathe tranquility and calm and that makes it a relaxing stay and more than recommended. The town of Mogón is a few minutes away where you can enjoy the typical cuisine of the region, especially recommend the bar, Paso de Zebra. Holiday cottages Jaen

    We have enjoyed like never before; the sierra is incredible with all that has rained in the month of April. In addition, we were lucky with the weather and we were able to use the picnic area and barbecue of the house with the river passing less than two meters away. The vacation home can only have one qualification: spectacular in everything; location, orientation, design, equipment and comfort. Totally recommended, even more so at this ideal time for hiking.

Little more to add to the positive opinions of other visitors about the house, a wonderful environment, very well equipped, an incredible pool, and a haven of peace. It is true that the photographs do not do it justice and once you get there you are pleasantly and amply surprised from the beautiful entrance, the large land that it occupies and the options available whether you want to relax or have fun in the pool, basket of basket, petanque or with board games.

The rustic El Helao farmhouse is reminiscent of the country houses of our grandparents with that flavor of the countryside and for children it has animals and many types of plants that serve as an experience and a good pool and all luxury to thank the owner for his dedication and attentions.

    We are from Jaén and we had never visited the Sierra del Segura, we always stayed in the Cazorla area, this Pilar bridge we decided to come. This site is 100% recommended, the views, the landscape, the people of the town, the leisure areas, everything to avoid getting bored and above all to rest and have a good time with friends. The accommodation was about 500 meters from the town, and it was well equipped, the value for money was very good and the owner was very helpful, and from there you felt like nature was surrounding you.

None of the previous positive opinions exaggerate, it is a highly recommended vacation spot. The environment of the rustic farm is excellent for its landscapes and its tranquility, but nothing compared to the house itself, which is wonderful with all the details and comforts. We were in winter and despite the cold outside, it was luxurious at home due to its wonderful fireplace and even better heating. Holiday cottages Jaen

Where can you sleep?

Staying in Jaén, means doing so in a place full of history and places to visit. Both in the capital as well as in the nearby cities, towns and villages, they will reveal something about the history of Spain.

In the capital, you will most of the accommodation offer in hotels, which are fully booked more often than not, specially during spring and summer, which means that you will have to search accommodation in advance if you're travelling during that time.

But one o the experiences that we recommend the most is enjoying of a rural stay in one of the many accommodations scattered in the small towns and villages around the province. The best option to enjoy of this is, to begin with, the small town of Baños de la Encina, which has the oldest castle in Europe, Burglimar, offering one of the most spectacular views of the monument, especially at night when the city walls are illuminated.

The fortress of La Mota is one of the most famous ones in the whole country, in Alcalá la Real, a place full of history and where many important figures have left their mark on it, such as the Arcipreste de Hita, amongst many others.

We also recommend La Iruela, specially to nature-lovers, a place where they will find one of the best ways to access to Cazorla, Segura & las Villas Natural Park. A truly spectacular place.
