Mal ubicado camino de tractor. Desayunó pésimo
Cons:

Para llegar es un camino de tierra de unos 6km que es para máquinas agrícolas. Destrozas el coche. Imposible de andar un vehículo normal

Disappointment in remote Extremadura.
Pros:

Location very remote. Arriving in monsoon, directions disappeared close to destination. Two phone calls to proprietor only got answering service. He later said he did not believe in sitting around waiting for calls.

Cons:

Accommodation very basic. No internet access in room. Television non functional and a request to proprietor via cook yielded no response. We were the only residents for the night. Dinner commenced at 21.30 along with other diners. First course arrived 22.15 and final course 23.45. Food fine. We were warned about large quantities. Good wine. Following morning, shower convertor on bath non-functional and in any event, no hot water. We left without taking breakfast.

Pros:

I did not stay at the property because it was in my opinion totally different from what was on the advert.
.

Cons:

The owner told me he will cancel the booking but his manager whom I never met and who could not speak English wrote what seems to as AI generated messages made the booking payable...I took more than 20 photos and will take this further with Booking.com
I will not recommend this place to anyone.

Relax entre vaquitas
Pros:

La zona es preciosa rodeada de naturaleza, animales (vacas, burros, ...), super relajante. La piscina está nuy bien y el restaurante muy agradable y comida riquísima. El dormitorio nuy amplio y confortable. Personal muy amable

Cons:

El camino para acceder es dificil de encontrar y hay que estar muy atento para no pasar de largo.
El restaurante por la noche estaba lleno y solo habia un camarero, tardaron bastante en atendernos.

Hay que probarlo
Pros:

Es un lugar muy chulo de ver, se trata de una especie de cortijo antiguo que han rehabilitado en hotel, y está muy bien, tienes los animales (vacas, burros) muy cerca del hotel, con lo que la experiencia es muy rural. Además pudimos estar con nuestra perra suelta en algunos espacios y disfrutó de lo lindo.

Cons:

la única pega que tuvimos es que el día que cenamos ahí había bastante gente y la cena tardó mucho, pero estaba muy buena y a buen precio.

Volver al siglo pasado
Pros:

La disponibilidad de piscina

Cons:

Acceso por camino de más de 6 km, que aunque aparenta estar liso, tiene muchísimas corrugaciones que destrozan las suspensiones.
No tiene aire acondicionado, en la provincia de Cáceres. Días de hasta casi 40 ºC
El desayuno no tiene proteína de ningún tipo, ni fruta, ni zumos. El café estaba bien.

Classic Spanish ambience and food
Pros:

Dinner was excellent- staff excellent - location excellent- ambience excellent- breakfast excellent- coffee excellent

Cons:

Bed too small for a double- bed linen was not cotton but polyester - needed to be a simple duvet and cover - towels very old and grey looking- light in bathroom not working properly - these are minor compared to ambiance, food and setting

We really enjoyed our stay. The place is just great being so remote and only nature around. Also really great to enjoy the stars at night. The hosts are just lovely and we can also recommend both breakfast and dinner very much.
