Pet-friendly hotels and homes in Trujillo

Our stay in El Alzahar was simply fantastic. It is a former winery wonderfully nestled in the rolling hills of the Extremadura steppe and dehesa. The whole building is lovingly renovated and very stylishly furnished, you could say Scandinavian design meets Spanish tradition. Our huge bed was not too soft and not too hard and there were even custom-made blackout blinds for all the windows, for those who like it dark at night and in the morning. Breakfast could be taken very flexibly, from half past seven until eleven the kitchen was manned and if you popped in, there was a typical Spanish continental meal with homemade delicacies, fresh orange juice and cake for dessert. Because the weather was great, we could already sit outside and enjoy the view of the pool, flowering gardens and also the chickens. But even if it should be cold, the dining room is a very cosy space, complete with a stove. It was incredibly quiet and peaceful - and for us, as birdwatchers, additionally the ideal place. In the morning, we were woken up by the gentle hoophoop of the hoopoe, swallows were nesting on the façade and in the adjacent, huge "garden" with dehesa, small pond and flowering meadows, Azure-winged magpies, White storks, Woodshat shrikes and almost everything the Extremadura has to offer in terms of songbirds were bustling about. The pool has also been simply wonderful in the warm afternoons - just the right temperature in a very well-kept garden area. Dinner can also be arranged in the morning and was one of the best we have ever eaten - with products and typical dishes of the country. Laura and her colleagues are accommodating and cordial without being intrusive. Cold drinks can also be bought anytime. I can only recommend this finca and will definitely book there if we should travel to Extremadura again.

The property is stunning. Beautiful gardens and pool. Sitting out area with table and chairs. Parking at the property is a bonus. Being able to walk to the town and the sites and restaurants.

The apartment we stayed in was huge and with everything you could need. The bed was very comfortable and the views for the window spectacular. Parking was easy just outside in the plaza. Jose, the owner was charming and friendly. The town was lovely with lots of bars and restaurants. Our reason for visiting the area was to visit Monfrague national park and the apartment made a really good base and for visiting towns close by. Monfrague was nothing short of amazing. We would definitely recommend the apartment and the area.

Very well located. The owner also very helpful and took me to Train station as there were no táxis.

This is a rural property a few KMs from town. It is not a luxury hotel but was comfortable, especially if you want a break from the busy towns/cities. A good breakfast was available for a few extra Euros. The host was welcoming.

It was not far off the motorway

Very friendly owners, it felt like home right away. They even made baked goods for breakfast for us. The owner also speaks german which made the communication easier for us. Additionally we got to use the kitchen and the Garden/ Terrace whenever we needed.
