Secret Garden Casita
Bolonia, Tarifa
“My favourite place in the known universe. Its energy and beauty takes your soul away and leaves you speechless. I love it.”
Set within the extraordinary landscapes of the Parque Natural del Estrecho, this peaceful retreat sits on a 27,000 m² private estate surrounded by ancient rock formations, Mediterranean vegetation, and sweeping views towards the sea. It is a place where nature feels close and the rhythm of the day slows down. From the house, a 15-minute walk leads down through the landscape to the beautiful wild beach of Playa El Cañuelo, where the Atlantic meets unspoiled coastline. The setting is remarkably quiet, with only birds, wind in the trees, and the distant sound of the sea. The house itself has been designed to feel bright, open and connected to its surroundings. Large windows bring in natural light throughout the day and frame views of the gardens and the landscape beyond. The living space flows easily between the kitchen, dining and sitting areas, creating a relaxed atmosphere for cooking, eating and spending time together. The property comfortably sleeps four guests, with two bedrooms; one double and one twin, and two full bathrooms. A fully equipped kitchen allows for easy living during longer stays, while the open plan living and dining area provides a welcoming space to gather after a day exploring the coast or the park. Outside, a private garden offers shaded seating and space to relax beneath olive trees and Mediterranean plants. Guests can also wander up to the main gardens of the estate, a beautifully natural 5,000 m² landscape where ancient stones, lawns and trees surround a tranquil lake. Reached by a short walk up a set of steps, this peaceful area is perfect for quiet moments, reading, or simply enjoying the atmosphere of this unique place. The estate hosts three rental houses (two of which are on this site) carefully positioned to maintain privacy while sharing the exceptional surroundings. This is a place for those who appreciate nature, simplicity and space; somewhere to disconnect, walk to the beach, and experience one of the most beautiful corners of southern Spain.
Can be rented with the Secret Garden House to sleep a total of 12 guests.

“A lot of magic between those stones and those gardens... unique and incomparable space!”
“Wonderful and magical without words... unique and unmatched experience. Highly recommended.”
“The most beautiful place I've ever been. Dreamlike, unimaginable. You can not imagine and its secret garden does not make you imagine that you are in Tarifa because when the Levante blows it is protected and has a microclimate. It's frog pond with an island included, I can't explain it.”
“Dream place, far from civilization and 10 minutes walk from the beach of Cañuelo, one of the most beautiful and little crowded coves of Cadiz. Perfect when there is a strong levante wind. Indescribable the paradisiacal garden. It is certainly worth spending at least a week here. You will not regret it!”
“Staying in this location put me into a deep state of relaxation, which is exactly what I was looking for. The setting is probably the best in the area - private, removed with absolutely breathtaking views of forest, ocean, beach, and mountains. But close enough to a nearby village to go out for a great dinner or to tour the local sites. Best of all, it's just a 10 minute hike in a trail to one of the most beautiful beaches I've ever been to. The home itself is perfect for 2 people. It has pretty much everything you need to make for a comfortable stay. My favorite part was the upstairs bedroom which had a huge window, allowing you to open it fully at night to capture the ocean breezes and sounds of the waves. I slept so well. And those views - spectacular. There is a lovely terrace and veranda in the front, perfect for dining and morning coffee. The host met us upon arrival. She was perfectly pleasant and helpful, showing us the features of the home and offering suggestions on dining and touring. And when questions came up during the trip, she was always available quickly by text message. Terrific hosts!! I recommend this property to anyone looking for a relaxing beach vacation on one of the most beautiful spots in the world!”
