Family-friendly holiday rentals in Candelario

The attention of both Victoria and her husband has been impeccable. They were great hosts helping at all times to make the stay enjoyable and solve a small unexpected quickly. Thank you.

The perfect place to disconnect. The house is perfect for a relaxing weekend. All the necessary amenities. And the town... amazing. It's really worth it.

The stay in the house was very cozy and quiet, Naxo communicated with us at all times and was very attentive. We also discovered a trail in the village that was very nice, an experience to repeat.

Unbeatable house, garden, landscapes and gastronomy between Almanzor and Covatilla, all the amenities, with thousands of possibilities in the countryside, very cozy and quiet.

Magnificent place to isolate, load your batteries and walk in the sierra. Maria is very helpful and accommodating. The house is very comfortable, nicely decorated and with a very nice little back garden.

The cabin spot is ideal to disconnect for a few days, there is no wifi and there is little coverage. There are plenty of routes close to the cabin. Just like Josefa told me it's a magical place. The cabin is very cozy and warm and has everything we need. The only bad thing is the bathroom that is too small. The upper part where you sleep is abuhardillada, you have to be careful, and the beds are all together, so if you go with more people or children you fall asleep all together in the same space. It is worth spending a few days at the cabin. I thought it was ideal for a getaway with your partner. And both Josefa and Jimmy have been very helpful with us.

The house is very large and spacious. Ideal for two families with small children, as was our case. Features super comfortable radiator heating. It also has a fireplace in case you also want to give yourself that whim

Antonio has received us very well and was at our disposal at all times. The apartment is ideal for a weekend, the village is a charm and nature is pure paradise.

The setting is a marvel. If what you're looking for is a haven of peace in nature, disconnect, walks, music, reading……This is your place. Totally private. There are a thousand places to visit and beautiful natural landscapes if you feel like getting around. We loved spending these Christmas days there. 🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶

The place is wonderful, Lourdes takes care of the detail. It is located in the center but in a quiet area. Lourdes as a host was great, very attentive to everything, she responds quickly. Highly recommended to spend a great few days.

special holidays in Cabezuela del Valle. Flor was very friendly and flexible with all our requests. The house is great, perfect for going with the whole family.

The house is wonderful,there is no lack of detail,restored with great taste and charm.Carmen and Ramón are attentive at all times to any of our needs, they advise you on everything. To repeat without a doubt.

From the post-card perfect town of Candeleda with its medieval church and flower-lined lanes, you head up a steep road, winding above the Gorge of Santa Maria, with its rushing water and natural pools, looking over the jagged Sierra de Gredos mountains. Tucked in a deep thicket of pine trees, next to an olive grove, is a house. Carmela and Jacobo's house. It looks quant, all brick red stucco and wood-timbered frames... but it is not just any house. It is a magic house. You enter into a world of calm and serenity. The entire house is cool - go ahead, take off your shoes, feel the cool terracotta slabs beneath your feet. This is thanks to the technological wonder of Aerothermia - a cooling/heating system that runs under the floors and keeps the whole house an even temperature - it was a glorious drench of cool during the searing days of August. There are two small bedrooms, each with two beds and a grand window looking out over the valley, the village of Candeleda and the mountains below. The master bedroom is a refuge with a large bed, comfy and welcoming, a master bath with two sinks and a double shower, and a vast jacuzzi that was out of order during our stay - but it was too hot for jacuzzis anyway. The best part of the bedroom is the vast window over the bed looking into an ancient olive grove, like a painting, but not still life, real life. Be sure to keep those blinds open. There is another small bath, and then the huge kitchen / living room. Every wall is a window. There's a pine forest out the kitchen, a thick garden of flowers and trees from one side of the living room, and then the massive wall-sized windows overlooking the valley. Enjoy the view from two cozy-fat sofas, with no TV to disturb you. Where one might be is a fireplace which should be glorious in winter. Kitchen is fully stocked with whatever you need, living room as lots of lamps, a big table for dining, a desk for working, and a rocking chair by the window that my youngest son claimed for his own. Head out the kitchen and follow the stone path to a clearing in the woods, the bosque. This is where you hang your clothes while surrounded by the hum of birds, the rustle of something in the woods, the breeze off the valley below. If you have to do laundry, this is the way to do it. And if you don't want to, the wonderful Bea can be hired to help you out. There is also a stone table, perfect for morning coffee. Back in the house, the best part awaits - the terrace, the size of a tennis court, overlooking Candeleda to the left, the valley in front, and the Gredos mountains to the left. Sunsets are a dizzying palette of peach and pink, a swash of purple, then the sky falls and night rises. With it a million stars, every star, Saturn and Jupiter too. This is where you'll want to spend your nights, every night. But then it is day and the heat rises like a furnace, so head out the front door, follow the gray-brick road, winding down to the swimming pool. Surrounded by lemon and orange trees, the pool is deep enough for cannon balls, placid enough for floating. There are several lounge chairs and the best place for them is tucked under the grove of trees - who needs an umbrella? What else do you need to need to know? Well, this magic casa has 3 other rentals on its property - two small apartments under the giant terrace, and a little bungalow down by the road. So, you'll find people about, at the pool, on the paths, this is not isolation. And speaking of, you are just a 8 minute walk downhill to the lively little village of Candeleda and its natural swimming pools (Carreras and Palomas), many restaurants (don't miss La Barranca and Casa Pepe) and lively Plaza Castillo. But what goes down must go up, and it is a very steep climb up. I'm tough, the only person in the world who loves burpees, and that climb nearly killed me under the sun. At dusk it was fine, as long as the sun wasn't slicing into my back, it was okay. But be aware of it if you plan on coming here without a car. BUT, climbing is all a part of Candeleda. There are numerous hiking routes all over the region, one of the best, Puerto de Candeleda, goes right past the magic house. So, bring your hiking shoes. Some other things, I read other reviews here about the heat and the bugs. Well, the aerothermia solved the heat problem and there are sturdy mosquito nets over every window. Water comes fresh from the mountain via a well, and it did run out a few times, usually late at night, and we were prepared as we had filled up plastic jugs from the fountain down at the entrance to the pueblo. Overall, I would love to go back every weekend, every holiday, every summer... but for now, my family and I have our memories of our magic house in the woods, high above Candeleda. Thank you Carmela and Jacobo for sharing it with us.

Enrique's house was perfect for a cozy winter getaway. It stayed very warm, the beds were extremely comfortable, and it had everything we needed for a peaceful and tranquil stay. Highly recommended!

A phenomenal weekend We'll definitely repeat it. The house is spotless and very nicely cared for

If you want to enjoy a stay in the heart of Valle del Jerte in a beautiful home and savor the local cuisine the place of Belén is the place you are looking for. A warm and welcoming place. See you next time! a hug Anabel

Our three-day stay at Maria's house was great. A very well equipped house, large, quiet, independent, very clean, superbly communicated and very well located to know the natural and historical richness of the Ambroz Valley. Maria has always been very kind and quick to answer us, and her information very effective. We were greeted by Marta and her husband, a lovely couple who showed us the house beautifully and provided us with very useful local information. In short, a very good experience that I recommend

Everything was very good

It was a great weekend, the location of the house and the house, 100% to enjoy and disconnect. Highly recommended.

Carmela is a discreet and attentive host, very friendly and close in the treatment. The accommodation and pool are impeccable . The air conditioning could not at all times with the extreme and exceptional heat of the summer, despite this in the private terrace of the apartment you could enjoy a fresh air. In general, I would repeat
