Hotel
Posada de Valdezufre is an historic manor/farmhouse dating from the end
of the 19th century, set in the rolling hills of the Sierra de Aracena
just east of the charming town of Aracena.
The property
has recently been most tastefully restored. The original structure was
kept and the house decorated with an intriguing mix of traditional country
style furniture.
|
Modern
facilities have not been overlooked and your comfort is assured.
This is
the ideal place from which to discover the rural charms of this region.
Don’t
miss nearby Zufre, perched high on a volcanic plug and overlooking a lake,
or visit some of the many castles along the road to Portugal.

History:
A very
wealthy person, rumour has it that she was the illegitimate daughter of
King Alfonso XII, built the house as a residence on a large estate. However,
she died without heirs and left the house to a family originally from the
region. They owned and occupied it until the 1950´s. Later the estate
and the house were sold separately, and as the latter fell into disuse
the village used two rooms as a small chapel. Subsequently, a local person
from Aracena realized it had potential as a hotel and proceeded to make
it what it is today: a charming personal hotel. He also added a small garden
and a pool. |
