About this property

Originally built in 1914 and fully restored in 2004, Cortijo Leontino is a registered rural hotel operating across three independent houses, set within 24 hectares of certified ecological land in the hills above Taberno. With a licensed capacity for up to 18 guests, it is already earning its keep, and the south-facing facades, 60cm stone walls, and double glazing ensure it does so in considerable comfort. A 64,000-litre galvanised water tank, natural spring well, satellite internet, and saline electrolysis pool system mean this is no romantic ruin, but a fully self-sufficient working enterprise.

Every bedroom has its own en suite, beds run to 160x200cm, and central heating via a Ferroli low-consumption oil-fired boiler keeps the winters honest. One room is fully adapted for disabled guests in line with current legislation, fire alarms are fitted throughout, and the whole rehabilitation was carried out under a signed-off architect and quantity surveyor project endorsed by the Official College of Almería. It holds official registration in the Andalusian Tourism Register under number CR AL 00075, meaning the hard bureaucratic work is already done.

Taberno itself sits 6km away, a village of 700 with bakery, pharmacy, health centre, restaurant, municipal pool, and fibre optic broadband. The nearest beaches are half an hour, Almería city just over an hour, and the Cabo de Gata Natural Park an hour and a half. There is also 400m² of urban land around the houses with potential for additional construction, should an ambitious buyer fancy expanding the operation further.
