Cheap hotels in Cabeza del Buey

An oasis in a truly unspoilt area of rural Spain with the vast steppes of La Serena on one side and the Sierra de Tiros mountains on the other. The refuge is historic with bags of character and the rooms are almost cloister-like set around a small courtyard with an orange tree in the centre and reached by stone steps. Tamara could not have been more helpful and you're given a phone number to ring for an access code that you key in to let yourself in - all this went smoothly. The room was cosy, clean and the bed very comfortable, the shower functional. Tamara kindly opened the kitchen in the adjacent restaurant to cook just for my wife and I - a tasty and hearty pork steak with fries. Breakfast was a self-service buffet with croissants, toast, ham, cheese, jam etc with coffee or tea, simple but plenty of it. The refuge is next to an old and historic church and surrounded by mature trees. It was tranquil and lovely when we were there. In minutes, you can then lose yourself in La Serena, perfect for those who love the outdoors and big landscapes. I hope to visit the area again and will happily use this as a base.

Charming house, decorated with many genuine antiques, modern kitchen and bathroom.Juan Felix the owner was very kind, he said his Mother had kept all the family antiques and displayed them in the house very artistically.It is like a small private museum.There is a very pretty garden with a swimming pool which was covered when we stayed.There is an outdoor barbecue area, with a pizza oven, and outside toilets.That facility would be good for a large gathering, or family group.We did not use any of the facilities, except the microwave and the coffee machine just to boil water.
