Introduction: At a thousand meters above sea level, Cortijada Los Gazquez is an 'off-grid' destination for creatively minded travellers high in the mountains of Andalucia. In the heart of the 'Parque Natural Sierra Maria-Los Velez', this ‘eco-chic’ guest house and 47 acre farm resides within a place of extreme natural beauty, profound peace and tranquillity and an awe inspiring wilderness, in one of Spain’s most dramatic alpine deserts. Cortijada Los Gazquez combines two of the principle ideas fundamental for people who love peace, inspiration and the natural world. Ecology and creativity. As a guest house Cortijada Los Gazquez has a benign influence on the earth making power from the sun and wind, cooking and heating with wood and recycling everything. As a creative retreat Cortijada Los Gazquez is a place for the expression of art, design and creativity in all it’s forms. It is a place where one can withdraw from everyday life and focus on one’s creativity in a culturally stimulating environment.
