The origins of Hacienda Fain Viejo date back to Arab times. More than 500 years ago it was a religious residence, and later, numerous legends began to circulate about this enigmatic place, such as that there was treasure or that there was an underground room with golden columns under the courtyard.
Over the centuries, Fain Viejo has undergone countless changes: from a monastery to a Jesuit residence, from a prison during the Napoleonic invasion to the olive plantation of the family that lives there today. The current owners have carried out a major restoration in recent years, transforming this place into a beautiful country house equipped with all the amenities needed to celebrate any kind of event.

The transformation of the pasture into a cereal field led to its renovation, and in 1990 it was restored as the estate’s main house.
