Antigua Posada

Extremadura


Occupying a lovely old 18th-century dwelling in the heart of Tornavacas, towards the top of the valley, this exceptionally welcoming and good-value place has colourful well-kept rooms with sloping wood-beamed ceilings, and a home-away-from-home feel. It can offer great sightseeing and walking-tour advice on the surrounding valley.
