“Delightful and majestic 18th century mansion, overlooking the valley in this historic hilltop village. Eclectic, bohemian interiors give the spacious rooms plenty of character. The hotel opens out around the central, colonnaded, plant-filled patio. Enjoy the views from the rooftop terrace. ”

Hotel review

This theatrical 18th-century mansion in the heart of the Casco Antiguo, is perched high on the gorge’s edge, flanked by two historic churches. Its imposing front door opens into a light-filled central patio, with white marble pillars. All the rooms are en suite with wooden beamed ceilings, original floor tiles and earthy colour washes. The roof terrace has sweeping views of the surrounding countryside and is the ideal place to enjoy a romantic sundowner.
