Gather together in the unique sitting rooms, including one built around a rock and another on the top floor with breathtaking views.
The Matarranya region, known as Aragon’s Spanish Tuscany, represents the best of traditional Spain’s food and customs. It’s a scenic drive to traditional villages and medieval towns with prehistoric sites. Adventurers can hike the Els Ports National Park’s trails and climb the rugged cliff faces nearby.
This family-friendly holiday villa is 140-150 km from the Rues and Castellon airports, near the village of Fuentespalda. Matarranya is a small corner of the country known as the ‘Spanish Tuscany’. Although you are on the edge of the dramatic Els Ports Natural Park with incredible hiking trails, it’s only just over an hour to the coast so there is that wonderful Mediterranean climate. Here the three kingdoms of Catalonia, Valencia and Aragon meet. The countryside is a patchwork of almond and olive groves interspersed with beautiful meadows of wild flowers.
It’s a part of Spain that has only recently been discovered by the Spanish themselves who come to see a part of the country where the traditional Spanish values remain. Here the locals work the land for a living and the villages preserve their medieval past
As well as the beautiful landscapes, which Picasso captured in his youth, there is also some of the best wildlife in the country. Ibex with huge horns come down to the almond grove and right onto the front lawn in the summer evenings, and the vulture-feeding centre nearby has been rated as one of the top 5 wildlife attractions in Europe.At Torre Caballe the focus is on creating a tailored experience for each group of family, friends or colleagues. Luis, the property manager, is on hand 24 hours a day and has a vast amount of knowledge of the local area, and can arrange many activities to suit guests needs.
An evening trek up the mountains to watch the sunset is a must, and when it gets dark Luis can drive up to meet you with drinks and a telescope to gaze up at the milky way, or alternatively the moonlight is often bright enough to guide you back home. There are cycling trails along old abandoned railway lines, past rivers and onto natural springs, feeding into beautiful lakes surrounded by the forested mountains.
Many of the cliff faces visible from the terraces of Torre Caballe can be scaled in a day of rock climbing, with different sections to suit all abilities.
