Kitchen 

The kitchen at Molino Bajo has marble surfaces throughout, and local Andalucian crockery is provided for use by guests. French windows open out onto the sun terrace where the original conical millstones have been set into the ground to provide the base for a huge Moroccan mosaic outdoor dining table, perfect for barbecues or just relaxing in the shade with a cocktail. Next to the kitchen is the original olive weigh-bridge, which is still operational and surprisingly accurate.

​

Living Room

The living room is a spectacular 40ft long entertaining area that keeps nice and cool in the summer, and with a Moroccan-style open log fire and under-floor heating for winter use. Two 7ft high original olive urns, “Tinajas", which used to be used for olive oil storage, frame the fireplace and make a dramatic feature of this unusual room. Moroccan-style lighting has been used throughout to provide a variety of atmospheric lighting effects. There are three main seating areas in this vast room - one that centres around the fireplace and is ideal for pre or post-dinner drinks and board games, another with three sofas that make up the TV watching area (large Smart TV), and at the other end of the room a sunken, amphitheatre-style pit area. The room contains many modern and vintage Moroccan pieces of furniture and decoration and beautiful rugs complete the comfort and atmosphere of the room. The original olive press and two further Tinajas make up the entrance to the dining area.

 

Dining Room

The dining area is divided from the living space by two more enormous tinajas and the original olive press. In its centre is the “Knights of the Round Table” dining table, constructed from the original millstone, which can comfortably seat twelve or more people and makes a great setting for impromptu banquets. Above the table hangs part of the machinery of the mill from which Moorish lanterns are suspended. There is another seating area beside the dining table with scatter cushions and an original Moroccan mosaic table. Again, Moroccan lighting and furniture complete the look and feel of this unique room.

​

A beautifully lantern-lit corridor leads on from the kitchen to the downstairs bedrooms and bathroom, and stairs at the end of this corridor lead up to the upstairs bedrooms and bathroom. 

​

The bedrooms are all named after the local olive types that were used in the production of olive oil at Molino Bajo.

 

“Cornicabra"

The “Blue Room”, is the large downstairs double. With a large double bed complete with an original white ornate Moroccan bed head, it features a blue-washed painting effect and its own fireplace. A large chandelier above the bed is paired with Moroccan lanterns to provide an atmospheric lighting effect. Wooden beams are set into the ceiling and vintage Moroccan furniture and rugs set the tone of the room. French windows lead directly out to the sun terrace and pool area, perfect for those pre-breakfast morning dips. There is an Andalusian-tiled bathroom with a bath and shower next door.

​

“Arbequina”

The downstairs twin room, reached from the corridor next to the kitchen, Arbequina has two single beds and also features atmospheric Moroccan lanterns and furniture.

 

“Picudo”

The upstairs double and, although smaller than Cornicabra, it is many people’s favourite room. Complete with a large double bed and Moroccan headboard the room exudes light and has French windows that lead out to the upstairs sun terrace with its own table and chairs located directly outside and just a few steps away from the beautiful Moroccan gazebo. There is an unusual double-shower bathroom next door.

 

“Manzanilla”

The upstairs twin room features two single beds and Moroccan-style lighting and furniture. Manzanilla enjoys fabulous natural light, there are French windows leading from just outside the room onto the upstairs sun terrace.
