ALAVERA DE LOS BAÑOS ^*

In the San Miguel district, at the beginning of the plain, a stone's throw from the Arab baths, this small, country-style establishment has a tiled roof and whitewashed facades. Inma (Spanish) and Christian (German) rent out a small number of very cozy rooms in muted tones, of various sizes and with Moorish-inspired decor to guests who come to enjoy a peaceful, green setting. Beautiful swimming pool, fountain, terrace and landscaped garden overlooking a purebred horse farm. The house is full of character, with terracotta floors, wood panelling and a walkway overlooking a beautiful living room. The bathrooms are also very pretty, with no television (better for relaxing!) and a few fans in case it's not cool enough in the evening. At breakfast, homemade lemonade, good jams and seasonal fruit will get you in shape for strolling around the city. Outside the walls and below, you'll have to do some climbing to see the city, but in exchange you're in a very quiet area.
