The staff were very friendly and very helpful. The room was absolutely beautiful and we had a great view. The location is remote, but that's what we were looking for. I was little skeptical about hiking at first, but I was wrong. We did the "Top of the World" hike: good views, almond blossoms and much more.

Excellent communication before arrival with the friendly, knowledgeable hosts, delicious food from the recipe available to buy and that was featured on the recent TV programme, stunning situation. I could go on and on...

We absolutely loved this property right from the moment we parked our car and met with one of the property owner (David). He was so very welcoming and warm. He showed us around the stunning property and showed us our room and explained how everything worked and when dinner/breakfast would be. His wife (Emma) who is also amazing would always be around during breakfast and dinners and it was a pleasure speaking to both of them about almost anything during our chats at the restaurant. They are always happy to help you plan out your day and suggest things you can do around the village or other villages around.

The evening meal was fabulous - very relaxed and delicious The location and the village are magnificent A huge kitchen and lounge available to guests with interesting books and details of mountain walks

Eva United Kingdom

Good breakfast,easy parking.Ideal location for walkers but we discovered that we are too old for stiff hilly mountain tracks.....but ideal for those younger than 76 and 75.Good situation for visiting Yegen if you know about Gerald Brenan.By car to Ugijar a worthwhile visit for us.

  • Hi! My family is coming to Spain in May and June of 2022 and initially, we were looking to do a volunteer farm stay so we could work and learn about agriculture, giving our kids an educational experience rather than just a holiday. Do you have the ability to teach and allow us to work too? Thx!
    Hello there! That certainly sounds interesting and an amazing project. We have worked with volunteers on a farm in the past. Please do give me a ring and we can perhaps discuss options
    Answered on 15 October 2021
  • Hello We are a family of 3 looking to stay for around 5 nights, is there any chance you would be able to accommodate us with an extra bed or sofa bed please? We are very keen to stay in your beautiful property. Many thanks.
    Hello. Yes of course! We have some lovely family rooms with a double bed and plenty of space for an extra single bed. The cost is 120 euros for the 3 of you including breakfast. Did you have a date in mind?
    Answered on 15 October 2021
  • Hi, could you please let me know if you will be open (including your restaurant) from 7 to 14 February 2022 as you are closed over new year?
    Hello. Our restaurant will be open from the last week of January onwards. We do have a large group for a week from 5th February who are coming for our almond blossom week so best to book a table in advance for that particular week.

Lots of people may have a loose understanding of the concept of customer service, but we actively promote it. Very simply, the needs of our guests come first. End of. That's why more than half the guests in our busy little hotel just keep on coming back. We could bang on about the astonishing views, the great and seasonal food, the cool decor and so on, but it's more than that ..... it's the human factor.
Bit odd to find keen windsurfers in the mountains, but that's our thing, I suppose. Cycling too, and skiing, as well as trekking. Also history and poetry, languages, politics and an unhealthy compulsion to follow the results of Blackburn Rovers. Add perhaps an even more unhealthy interest in wine and fine food.
If we could market silence as a commodity then we'd be made for life. That and big, empty spaces where the scale of things reminds you of your own insignificance. And things move sloooowly here. It's old. Think of London, then think of its antithesis in every single detail. Though we do have wifi...
