Casa del Alfarero
About the home
Ensemble of 2 separate, independent farmhouses in the Cortijo "Tejar Siete Olivos", one of the most wind sheltered places of Tarifa, at seaside, tranquilly located in a nature park. The beach 'at your door step', but only 700m walking distance to the old centre of Tarifa.
CASA DEL ALFARERO for 4 persons.
Ancient potter house (early 19.C), tastefully restored in its historical flair.
As in all authentic cottages of the region you first will come to the patio (courtyard) with flowers and grapes, centre of family live. From here you reach the kitchen house with original oven (formerly to prepare bread) and authentic stone floor.
Andalusian kitchen house, modern equipped kitchen (4 ring hob, large fridge and freezer, crockery and china).
Modern, well equipped shower room.
The main house has 2 entrances. The first one - after passing the small entrance hall (with large, antique wardrobe) - leads to a modern, attractive fitted shower room and 2 separate bedrooms (2 beds each).
Both are cosy, one with Moroccan flair. The second entrance leads from the patio directly to the living/dining room, structure of 19th century, beamed ceilings. Seats 6 and sofa, cupboards, secretaire, SAT-TV, radio/CD-audio tape player, books.
2 terraces with magnificant views of the ocean and the Moroccan coastline and a small woodland belong to the house.
