Finca Al Mansour in Monda, is set amongst the most dramatic and stunning scenery of Andalucia in the foothills of ‘La Sierra de las Nieves’, its municipal area forming part of the natural park, and retains the hallmark of its Arabic past in the shape of its steep, narrow streets lined with whitewashed houses standing in the shadow of the castle, built on the ruins of the former Arabic fortress, now a Hotel with Restaurant.
Monda Castle is an ideal setting for the cultural events held there, including opera, or flamenco evenings including dinner. It’s also an ideal venue for pre dinner drinks which enables you and your family to enjoy the breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside.
Also worth a mention is the Marbella Gun and Country Club, that is two minutes outside the village and apart from the obvious, clay pigeon shooting, crossbow, and air pistol target shooting, there are quad bikes and horse riding too.
The streets between the old white houses are narrow, and the facades of the houses are typically overloaded with flowerpots full of blooming geraniums hanging from the walls or the small balconies.
Monda is a lively and traditional Spanish Pueblo, still filled with enchantment and life as it was years ago. It is not a rarity to see farmers passing through the village with their donkeys on their way to cultivate their olive and orange groves.
Monda has a smattering of typical Spanish bars, restaurants, a pharmacy, village shops, fish mongers, top quality butchers, and many other small businesses. Basically everything you may need if you don’t fancy popping down to Marbella or to Coin which is the next town only 10 minutes drive away. Coin it’s self has all the amenities one requires, including a commercial centre with multi cinema that also show films in original version at certain times of the day.
Monda is an ideal place to explore the surrounding white villages and to taste the traditional andalucian cuisine.
The house is only two minutes drive from the main road to Marbella and you can access the airport in Malaga in 35 minutes, Ronda which is a very nice day trip of one hour and thirty minutes, home to the oldest bull ring in Spain and many other tourist attractions. Granada and Seville each being roughly a couple of hours away making them ideal day trips.
The most accessible golf clubs are just twenty minutes drive away in Alhaurin el Grande and Alhaurin de la Torre where you have two fabulous 18 hole courses with superb lunch time menus at reasonable prices. Also you can drive down to Marbella to access the numerous other courses on the coast.
The views from the finca are breathtaking over the countryside and surrounding area. All in all, it’s the ideal place to enjoy a break, in natural surroundings, away from the hustle and bustle of the coast, but near enough to have access to it when you wish.
The finca is located on a hillside that is accessed by a cemented track that runs up the mountain side , so it is very private and not overlooked. (please note if you have never been to Spain and driven off road before in your own country, this is an off road cement track and has around 400 meters of up hill driving)
The pool is 11 meters long, free form and designed with kids in mind. Walk-in and a large surface area of shallow water. Cleaned weekly (in bathing season) complete with sun beds etc..and out door shower.
We have a large private African BBQ House which is where we have enjoyed many memorable BBQs. This area is where many people spend most of their time in ‘the bar’ complete with additional drinks chest refrigerator so you have plenty of room to store all your cool drinks. We supply the logs for the bbq to enable you to enjoy outdoor summer living! We have plenty of tables outside for eating on the covered terrace.
