Wonderful self-catering holiday accommodation built inside the ruins of a 1779 historic building just 10 minutes walk from the bustling White Village of Jimena de la Frontera, on the edge of The Alcornocales Nature Park.
‘La Real Fabrica de Artilleria de Carlos III’,
which manufactured cannon balls used during the Great
Siege of Gibraltar 1779 – 1783 and the Indies wars,
hence its name:
“La Fabrica de Bombas”.
It is situated on the outskirts of the bustling village of
Jimena de la Frontera, one of the famous ‘White
Villages’ of Andalusia, with the river Hozgarganta
(which was channelled to drive, via a water wheel, the
machinery of the factory) flowing in front. There is a
backdrop of dramatic craggy rocks, the top of which is
crowned by a ruined Moorish Castle.
