This large holiday villa in Extremadura is at 3 km. from the village of La Calzada de Oropesa, where basic supplies can be found. Larger shops, restaurants etc. can be found at nearby Oropesa de Toledo and Navalmoral de la Mata, just across the border with Extremadura.
The surrounding landscape is very varried and attracts many bird species, with the endless Extremadura plains with olive groves and the typical holm oaks set against several mountain chains, from the Montes de Toledo and the Sierra de Guadalupe on the south to the Sierra de Gredos in the north. It is an ideal area for long biking or horseback riding tours. At about 5 km. is the beautiful lake Valdecañas in the Tage river, and the Isla de Valdecañas golf resort, with a beautiful 18 hole golf course and many other sports activities offered.
The cortijo is also well situated for exploring the cultural wealth of the region, such as the monumental towns of Oropesa with its Parador-Castle, Trujillo with its conquistar palaces, the Guadalajara monastery, The city of Cáceres, declared World Heritage site by the UNESCO, and the Yuste Monastery, where Emperor Charles V spent his last years. There are also several areas of great nature interest, such as the Monfragüe National Park and the Sierra de Gredos.
