15th Century Palace and
Castle
The stately home of the Álvarez
de Toledo, Counts of Oropesa, once the home of soldiers, clergy and noblemen,
enjoys exceptional views of the Sierra de Gredos.
The historic value of the
Torre del Homenaje, a tower attached to the Parador, the columns of the
courtyard, and the pool with outstanding views over the plains of Campo
Arañuelo, make up a very attractive hotel.
|
|
|
| The interior is dominated
by lamps, chests and curtains, with large, bright rooms, lounges and work
spaces.
Game and seasonal produce
are features of Oropesa, where the cookery of Toledo offers lamb, roast
kid and other specialities such as migas del Arañuelo, a bread-based
dish, and confit of partridge.
