It has 44 homes, a hotel, a church, a school, a swimming pool and even a barracks building which used to be used by the civil guard.
Originally built for the workers at a nearby reservoir in the 50s, it fell into disuse after the workers left in the late 80s. It was bought at the start of the noughties and the plan was to turn it into a tourist attraction.
