Blue Flag!
When we talk about Blue Flags, you probably picture beautiful beaches in Ibiza or spotless beaches on Spain's eastern coast, with everything a beautiful beach entails....
Well, I invite you to a beautiful spot far from where you'd imagine: "Extremadura"
Yes, Extremadura! It's not just history, where you can see incredible things such as Roman Extremadura
The old town of Cáceres, the third best-preserved medieval ensemble in Europe: fabulous and well worth a getaway.
Or one of our favourites, in our opinion one of the most beautiful main squares in Spain, birthplace of the conquistador Pizarro.
Here we have a customer and friend who offers food and lodging to all travellers wanting to discover this beautiful corner of Extremadura: Apartamentos Arquillo .
But let's not get sidetracked, because if we start talking about Extremaduran cuisine.... that could fill many posts.... Ham, Torta del Casar cheese, cherries... mmm, the list is endless.
What we want to tell you about is an unusual fact that deserves the attention it merits.
Right in the heart of inland Spain, when it seems that all sun-and-beach tourism is the monopoly of other places, there's an incredible spot
The first inland beach with a Blue Flag!! With the same amenities and services as any beach in Spain.
Here you'll find a fantastic place to enjoy the wonders of a freshwater beach with a Blue Flag, and a base for discovering many of the marvels Extremadura has to offer
Hotel Rural Orellana is located in the centre of Orellana la Vieja, in the province of Badajoz.
An ideal place to immerse yourself in Extremadura's nature. Orellana is a town flanked by hills covered in pine, oak and olive groves and reflected in the Orellana reservoir, a dream spot for water sports, fishing and birdwatching. The hotel can be a starting point for numerous excursions in the surrounding area or for visiting iconic cities and towns in Extremadura such as Mérida, Guadalupe, Medellín, Puebla de Alcocer, Villanueva de la Serena, etc.
Here in this dreamlike place you'll also find our small contribution:
