Casa de Pasaron.
c/ La Magdalena, 18, Pasaron de la Vera, (Caceres).
La Casa de Pasarón is truly a family house: when it was built in 1890 it belonged to the great-great-grandparents of the present owners. Now, since 1998, it has been carefully restored and turned into a little hotel. Fronting onto a tiny village street, it nevertheless enjoys superb views across the countryside and mountains.
Visitors enter into an impressive hall with a rose window and and a granite staircase leading to the first floor. Beneath the vaulted ceilings of the ground floor there is a comfortable lounge ideal for a quiet read or a long chat, and also the dining room where you can enjoy delicious home cooking of dishes typical of the region. Outside there is a garden terrace with superb views, where breakfast and dinner can be served in summer. The swimming pool has a large terrace and lawn, and walnut, fig and cherry trees provide comfortable green surroundings to repose in peace and contemplation.
The first floor has 8 double rooms, each with twin beds, telephone, television, heating and an en-suite bathroom. The rooms are simply furnished with the products of local craftsmen, but warm and welcoming. The second floor has four larger rooms with beamed attic ceilings, double beds, air-conditioning and all the same comforts of those below. A third bed can be added if required. The roof windows up here draw your eyes to the stars, which are especially bright and twinkling due to the clear air of Extremadura and the lack of light pollution.
This is a charming hotel, at once welcoming, comfortable, quiet and homely. It's beautifully placed for touring the relatively unknown area of Extremadura. There are historic villages, the Yuste Monastery, the Jerte valley renowned for the cherry blossom, the city of Plasencia and the National Park of Monfrague which is of special interest for birdwatchers.
We Say
Casa De Pasarón is a delightful little hotel from which to explore the beauties that Extremadura has to offer. Truly a historic family house.
A Word from the Owner
The Vera region, Pasarón village and our house; they are all delightful and very special to us. For lovers of the real "real Spain", this is an ideal place, and above all it's a quiet spot where you can breathe in the ambience of an Extremadura village.
