Introduction: Finca Santa Marta is a former olive oil mill which was converted into a country inn, situated in the heart of the outstanding natural landscape of the Extremadura dehesa. Finca Santa Marta's visitors praise the vastness of the surrounding "dehesas", the scenic views from the silent roads winding through unspoilt nature and the dazzling beauty of wild lavender and red poppies covering hill after hill in springtime.
Full Description: For those eager to experience an authentic country atmosphere, the Finca is surrounded by a unique landscape of dehesas and a fascinating community of birds. Scenic views can be seen from the hilltops around Finca Santa Marta during one to four hour walks, with the charming village of San Clemente and its small white-washed church huddled against the olive grove covered slopes. Further on, views extend towards the profiled crest of Trujillo or on remote villages like Herguijuela or Conquista. Immersion in the unspoilt nature inspires tranquility of the mind and enhances your sense of complete relaxation. Finca Santa Marta is the Extremadura version of a 'cortijo', composed of two country farms surrounded by olive groves, vineyards and orchards, which until only 15 years ago produced top quality olive oil and wine called 'pitarra'. The two farms, Santa Marta and Santa Teresa (left), are now partially converted into a country inn. Breakfast and dinner are served in the ancient olive oil mill with its 19th century hand-driven olive press Please see our web site for more information Click Here to go to the Website
