CLUB HÍPICO MOLINO DE FUEGO
The Club Hípico Molino de Fuego, in Estación de San Roque, is almost a place of worship for horses. It is a country estate with history and soul and is going through the early stages of renovation and development at the moment.
At the end of 2017 the estate started going through an extensive refurbishment of the pre-existing facilities to turn them into what they are now. The new owners were clear from the beginning that the place where the horses lived had to offer in the best conditions and comprehensive horse care. It is the ideal place to learn horse riding and be part of a big family who love nature, sport and a healthy lifestyle.
The estate dates back to the early 20th century and a great part of it was dedicated to cattle farming. These 13,000 m2 of land are becoming a reality as a project in the present and for the future, under a rigorous construction plan where the original construction elements have been respected to the fullest. The vision of the owners has materialised into an impeccable space in an Andalusian style with a British influence.
The new Molino del Fuego Club is a project with character and a vision for the future. With everything is focused on horses, it is impossible not to appreciate the surroundings. This is an estate where learning and enjoying nature with the family is possible and to keep building up the arguments of a club will make history.
