Picture a derelict 17th century old olive and flour mill converted into a beautiful country residence, set in stunning landscaped gardens scented with fruit trees and just five minutes from the historical mountain pueblo of Ronda, and you have a good idea of the brand new Hotel Molino del Puente.
The mill has been lovingly converted into a 10-bedroom rural hotel, retaining all the old features where possible to create a unique atmosphere.
The present owners, Ian & Elaine Love, are already well-known on the Costa del Sol having run the very successful Harbour Lights restaurant at Puerto Cabopino, Marbella. They built up an enviable reputation for their mouth-watering, creative European cuisine.
The surrounding area
Molino del Puente is just 5 minutes from the historic centre of Ronda famed for its amazing gorge and Arabic architecture.
It is also only an hour from Jerez, Cadiz, Seville and coastal resorts on the Costa del Sol and Costa de la Luz making it a perfect location to explore.
The mill is situated on the edge of 2 natural parks making it a very popular base for walking, bird watching, horse riding, cycling and for people interested in enjoying rural Spain. Also a popular spot with house hunters – those wishing to escape the coast and relax in their country retreat.
