Eating

Lovingly & freshly prepared meals

“What a wonderful holiday we had with you, the first time it’s felt like a holiday since having B. As a massive foodie, the food was a highlight for me and felt like I was dining out at my favourite restaurant every night.”

Kate, Stu and Bea, September 2024

Home-cooked Mediterranean meals

Simple food done well

Food is a highlight at Caserio del Mirador and nothing pleases us more than seeing our guests tucking into our homemade dishes, as laughter drifts through the warm Mediterranean breeze from our alfresco kitchen, surrounded by breathtaking valley views in every direction. We pride ourselves on sourcing the freshest local produce to give us the healthiest, most nutritious and flavoursome meals and happily cater to all dietary requirements.

Breakfast

Every morning, a breakfast hamper is delivered to your front door where you’ll wake up to the smell of warm croissants and sun-ripened fruit, with a supply of yoghurts and Weetabix left in your apartment upon arrival.

If you’re an early riser, borrow a basket and collect some freshly-laid eggs from our chickens to take back and cook in your room. At Caserio del Mirador, what’s ours is yours.

Kid’s Teatime

Keeping children holiday-happy at mealtimes can be tricky, but not at Caserio del Mirador. We offer a relaxed children’s teatime five times a week, serving familiar favorites to help them feel relaxed and confident, sausages, pasta, and always broccoli and carrot sticks. The more adventurous enjoy some typical tapas choices, prawns and calamari, meatballs and tortilla, and paella is popular with the little ones. And while they tuck in, parents enjoy a drink or two. Don’t forget to ask for scraps to feed our pigs Peppa and Daisy too!

“The children’s meals were fantastic, with such variety, so that every child could find something they liked. During this time, Sarah and Johnny kept the parents drinks topped up, which helped the conversation to flow.”

Andy Carridge – 2017

We offer meals five days a week, with most guests staying Saturday-Saturday. Expect a private supper on your terrace on Saturday evening, Sarah’s famous paella Sunday lunch, and candle-lit communal dinners on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays, with cocktails and hors d’oeuvres, perfect for when the little ones hit the pillow.

Guests are welcome to opt-in to dining for the duration of their stay or on a request basis. We’ll gladly recommend local restaurants or supermarkets should you fancy whipping something up in the privacy of your own apartment.

Relaxed Dining

Home grown & locally farmed ingredients

Our kitchen garden provides us with the freshest seasonal sun ripened fruit and vegetables. Come and see it for yourself, sample the produce and collect eggs from the chickens. We irrigate with our recycled water and use animal manure to keep the soil healthy and chemical free. The local weekly markets support local farmers, and this gives us another source of healthy sustainable food using less transport and less packaging. 

The Honesty Bar

We want your family holiday in Spain to feel like staying with friends so you’re welcome to raid our 24/7 honesty bar by the pool that is piled high with chilled beers, wine, spirits and ice-cream.

There’s complimentary ice, fresh fruit and snacks, tea and coffee-making facilities and a filtered water tap should you want to refill any bottles. Pull up a stool and make yourself at home.
