Mother and daughter, Sally and Kate Bullivant welcome you to one of the very few family-run cave guest houses in this beautiful area of Spain.

Together with Sally's Mum, Kath, they moved to Castillejar in the Granada province in February, 2005 and then spent the next few months renovating an old fashioned cave home into a family home with an entirely separate one-bedroom cave home for Kate and two, purpose-built en-suite guest rooms. The guest rooms have been newly built in what was the corral. The corral, with its colourful pots and window boxes full of geraniums, now makes a private shady courtyard, perfect for al fresco dining.

Indulge yourself with our 'Spanglish' breakfast. Help yourself to croissants, cakes, toast and preserves, cereals, fresh fruit, yoghurts and fruit juice whilst we prepare you a beautiful cooked breakfast made with fresh local produce.

Ideal for a romantic or spiritual break, recharging your batteries in the fresh mountain air, hiking, fishing, photography or for curious folk just wanting to see what cave living is like!

For ONLY 50 euros per room per night

There is a short ladder at the bottom of the path with three wooden steps that land you on the flagstone porch and the front entrance to Kokopelli's "digs."
