Fodor's Expert Review La Casona

Ctra. Navalmoral (EX392), Km 15, Jaraíz de la Vera, Extremadura, 10400, Spain

This rustic estate with spectacular views of the Gredos mountains has six cozy rooms in the main house and six log-cabin bungalows. The main house, made of stone, is surrounded by a huge terrace and gardens and has a wood-burning stove. Bungalows have wraparound porches; three have whirlpool baths. Owners Miriam and Sergio are terrific cooks; let them overserve you house specialties like goat and lamb stew, migas, and suckling pig. Breakfast, an assortment of cured meats and homemade pastries, is a steal at €5. With a paddle tennis court, outdoor pool, and farm animals, this is a lovely spot for a family. Horseback riding, hiking, fishing, cycling, and canoeing can also be arranged.
