La Cazalla de Ronda

25/01/2026

There IS something very special about Ronda, the highlight of southern Spain…

While no visit to Spain is complete without seeing Barcelona and Madrid, you’ll want to make time to discover the small towns in Spain, too. Not only are these places often as vibrant and as picturesque as their big-city counterparts. They’re also portals into Spain’s sacred traditions—from siestas to sobremesas—giving visitors a primer on the country’s easygoing, pleasure-filled way of life. https://cntraveler.visitlink.me/8AOUj0

On Wednesday, 26th November 2025 we started our olive harvest. We knew it would be a good year as every single tree was laden with plump olives, and we welcomed anyone who offered to come and help us get them off the trees and in to the nets. It was a lot of hard work, but such a joyous experience, surrounded by our friends, (and our animals!) we chatted and laughed and, by the end of the week, we were deliriously tired! We gathered 1,497kg, took them to the mill in 3 cars, with 2 trailers and returned with 254 litres of cold-pressed, organic, extra virgin olive oil to share with our friends, family and of course, La Cazalla’s lucky guests!

An interesting article in The Sunday Times today about olive oil - ‘The liquid gold that took over the world’.

We just managed to harvest La Cazalla’s olives between the recent torrential rains, and took them to our local mill 5km away in Ronda. The harvest was 30% down on last year, but thankfully still enough for us, our family and friends and of course, La Cazalla’s lucky guests!

Under the late September Tuscan sun, the leaves of 25,000 olive trees rustle gently in the breeze. Among them are clusters of gently ripening fruits, mostly green, some beginning to turn black. They are all shapes and sizes: some small and pointed, others fat and luscious. In the distance hazy blue....

LA Organic has finally opened its Philippe Starck designed museum dedicated to the liquid gold that is olive oil. Spain is the world’s largest producer of olive oil and 75% of that oil comes from Andalucia. At LA Organic they offer tastings of their oil along the same lines as a wine tasting experience, interesting! The new museum has long been a controversial project for Ronda and something of a ‘love it or hate it’ building…we’ll be popping in shortly to see for ourselves! Watch this space!

We are so sad to have lost our lovely Basil yesterday. He met many of our friends and guests, a star member of our team, he could squeeze through fences and find his way on to laps and in to dishes! He loved everyone and everyone loved him. We’ll all miss him terribly, a tiny dog who will leave a huge hole. Rest in peace Basil ❤️

“The best things in life are the people we love, the places we’ve been, and the memories we’ve made along the way.”

Memories of holidays and good times spent with family and friends often centre around food and drink - a wonderful meal in a quintessential Mediterranean square in the sun, or finding a tapas bar known only to the locals, or toasting an incredible sunset - these are the moments that stay with us. If you’re planning a visit to Ronda, we’ve already tried and tested a fair amount of the more than 250 restaurants, bars and cafés in and around Ronda, so take your pick of our Top 25, bring the people you love to the table and make some more memories!
