Extremadura
This attractive, modern family-run country house sits on a wide-open plot gazing out to the sierra. All rooms are bright, comfy and enticing, with personalised colour schemes – some come with beamed ceilings, others sport floral motifs. Orange-toned room 9 has stunning mountain views. It's signposted off the EX203, 2km east of Villanueva.
Dotted around are intricate wall murals, pottery pieces and ceramic leaf-shaped sinks by the architect's wife.
