Las Salegas del Maguillo

Castilla-La Mancha


High up in the hills above the road 11km southwest of Riópar, beyond the Nacimiento del Río Mundo carpark, this place consists of a collection of handsome stone buildings set amid the woods. Some of the villas have fireplaces and there is an outdoor swimming pool. It's rustic, tranquil and comfortable. Prices are lower from Sunday to Thursday nights.

The on-site restaurant serves excellent Manchegan cooking (menu of the day €18).
