Rural living, creative encounters & authentic stays in Andalusia
In a nearly forgotten village in Andalusia, we plant the future in ancient soil.
Welcome to Barrio Fuente — a small Andalusian neighbourhood with a big story.
Since 1996, we’ve been breathing life back into old houses and creating a place where heritage meets inspiration. Whether you’re here for a peaceful stay, a creative film workshop, your own project, or to take part in rewilding initiatives, Barrio Fuente is where people come to earth, connect, and help shape the future.

Eclipse Event 11 - 14 Aug
A few minutes of eclipse. Nights of stars. A memory for a lifetime. Four days around the 2026 eclipse in and around Barrio Fuente.
On August 12, 2026, up to 97% of the Sun will be covered above the skies of Almería as it approaches the horizon. Daylight will soften, shadows will lengthen, and for a brief moment the landscape will seem suspended between day and night. The eclipse takes place during the peak of the Perseid meteor shower, when falling stars regularly cross the summer sky. *info

Located near the unique Tabernas desert landscape and at the foot of the Sierra Filabres. The surroundings are an integral part of what we do..
