We were lucky to find this hotel shortly after it reopened with a new owner-manager. The new owner is a charming, generous guy and a good cook. The hotel is in an old building that stays remarkably cool in the summer. The bedrooms and fittings are all modern and of excellent quality. Little details in the common areas show a restrained good taste. Our room had a beautiful view over the mountains to the north. We chose this place because it offers a short but adequate dinner menu, so no need to drive around dark country lanes looking for a restaurant. The food is all fresh and the Spanish omelette is particularly good. Breakfast starts with freshly squeezed orange juice, then a couple of local specialities prepared by the owner’s mother, plus toast, genuine ham, jams and good coffee. For a breakfast included in the room rate, it is very generous. You can walk directly from the hotel onto farm tracks up into the wooded hills or down to the hay meadows. The hay had just been cut when we were there, wonderful odours reminding me of a distant childhood! Ten minutes by car is the village of Vegaquemada, where there is a lovely riverside walk leading to the next village. We are casual birdwatchers and we found the area very rewarding, both in quantity and variety. Tripadvisor says that commentaries must include something negative; sorry, but I really can’t think of anything! A wonderful weekend, hopefully to be repeated soon.
