Fodor's Expert Review Camino Real
Calle Monje 27, Guijo de Santa Bárbara, Extremadura, 10459, Spain
Editor's Note: This location is no longer in operation.
In a village in the highest valley of the Vera, this former mansion has rustic guest rooms with exposed stone walls and wood-beam ceilings. There's a sitting room with fireplace, plus an outside hot tub. The owners organize local excursions and can arrange equestrian outings, golf, guided fly-fishing expeditions, and much more.
PROS
- sprawling terrace with gorgeous views over the valley
- family activities organized
- lavish breakfast buffet included
CONS
- those great views of Extremadura's plains also make for windy, cold winters
- few modern perks
- no online bookings
