Parador de Oropesa

Description and location

Parador de Oropesa - The ancestral home of the Alvarez family of Toledo, the Counts of Oropesa, which was a refuge for soldiers, monks and nobles in other times, offers exceptional panoramic views of the Gredos mountain range. The historical value of the keep backing on to the Parador, the columns and arcades of the courtyard, and the swimming pool, with exceptional views of the flat lands of the Campo Aranuelo, form a very attractive whole. Decorative lamps, large wooden chests and curtains dominate the interior decoration, in which the spaciousness and brightness of the bedrooms and public areas stand out. Game and seasonal products are characteristic of Oropesa, where the cuisine of Toledo offers lamb, roast kid, and other specialities such as ''migas del Arañuelo'' (fried breadcrumbs. Tastier than it sounds!) and ''perdiz escabechada'' (partridge).
