“The farm and the landscape were amazing”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 March 2011

The Finca is an authentic Spanish property with family history. Our room was really sweet, in the evening was a bit cold since the heating was just put on, but on request, Joaquin lighted a large fireplace and the room became immediately warm and nice. The bed was comfortable and the environment peacefully (the main road is 7 km away). The bathroom was large and clean.
We loved the different walks possible in the property (400 hectares), it is possible to see different types of astonishing sites, with trees and small lakes, with no trees and gently hills all the way up to the horizon (in the direction to Brozas).
All sort of animals can be meet in your walks like white storks, hawks, bulls, cows, horses, and a lot of Spanish pigs (the ones of the famous jamon de bejota). For the first time I saw a fox and a monk vulture near by and that was very nice.
During my stay I ate twice in the hotel restaurant and the cook prepared very nice local dish prepared in the traditional style, the meals were served next to a big fireplace.
The breakfast was simple but nice.
The things that we liked the most have been the special atmosphere (like the old times) and the authentic charm of a real country environment. We were travelling with our pet and we had no problem to bring the dog to the Finca Vaqueril.
Furthermore travelingaround the area we discovered very nice pueblos like Garrovillas and Alcantara that we recommend to visit.
Be aware that to reach the hotel you need to drive on 7 km of unpaved surface, the road is easy but if you have a sport car can be unconfortable.

“A fascinating experience”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 June 2008

Certainly the hotel has all the makings of a great experience. The room was fine. However we were the only couple there. The couple left in charge spoke no English and altho the young man was helpful he was insistent that we ate at 8.30pm-45 minutes after our arrival. There was no menu , a la carte or otherwise. The dinner was mediocre. whilst breakfast was spartan. We didn't use the Swimming Pool which required a good clean out. Even allowing for it's remote location, there was something missing.

“The most romantic place I've ever been!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 February 2008

El Vaqueril is an ideal place to discover the nature in Extremadura, to relax and to enjoy a tipical "Spanish finca". In addition the it is charming and an unusual place to visit.

  • Liked — The natural surroundings, the French decor, the tranquility and the traditional food of the region
  • Disliked — It is a charming hotel but lacks the comforts of a city hotel
