Parador de Jarandilla de la Vera

The Parador de Jarandilla de la Vera is a 15th-century medieval castle-palace. At the heart of the orchard of La Vera and El Tiétar, among water gorges, natural pools, chestnut and oak forests and natural landscapes of unusual beauty that reaffirm the richness of its historical and monumental surroundings, stands this building, which was the home of Charles V. From its architecture, the towers, the courtyard and its swimming pool, with olive and orange trees, stand out. Inside, you will find an atmosphere of tranquillity and intimacy, majestically decorated with large paintings and windows that emerge from the stone walls like viewpoints. In its restaurant, discover the cod with mousseline and the exquisite cuisine of Extremadura: tomato soup, revolconas potatoes, migas, cuchifrito de cochinillo, caldereta de cabrito and, as a sweet ending, wild strawberries from the warm forests with meringue milk ice cream. Rediscover the serenity and flavour of Extremadura in this spectacular castle.
