Our School of Nature offers so much to do…and then some.
Walking Order one of our picnic-filled knapsacks, grab a hat off the peg, and off you go.
Bird-watching World-renown for spotting the kestrel, buzzard and red kite. Read more here.
Nature photography We would politely deter guests from hunting with guns but would encourage them to hunt with binoculars and cameras. We think this is much kinder.
Local flora and fauna the area hosts a very rich variety of wildflowers in widely diverse habitats, some species growing nowhere else. Bring that camera.
Beekeeping Colmenar’s heritage is on the doorstep. A local expert will give lectures and demonstrations.
Wine appreciation Andalusia is an interesting wine producing region and Spain is home to some of the best, oldest and well known wines available. Courses are run by local experts.
Olive-oil production The landscape of olive groves is a striking reminder that traditional harvesting methods are still much in use. Learn, taste, bring some home.
Regional cookery We offer informal cookery classes on classic Andalusian cuisine. Fun and filling.
Flamenco dancing and musicianship Get those toes tapping. Andalusian performers run small courses for our guests. Yoga There will be dedicated yoga and meditation weeks as well as bookable sessions for individuals and groups.
Mediterranean gardening We offer informal seminars and talks on how to recreate our gorgeous Persian garden.
