Casa Rural El Tomillar
About
Casa Rural El Tomillar is a cottage located in the village of Pasarón de la Vera, in Extremadura, approximately 220 km west of Madrid. The village sits at the entrance to the comarca of La Vera, at the foot of the southern foothills of the Gredos mountain range, in a valley crossed by gargantas — fast-flowing ravines with rushing waters — and flanked by cherry trees, chestnut trees, and plantations of smoked pimentón. The property has several bedrooms and accommodates groups; guests have returned for their annual collective stays year after year over several decades. The interiors are spacious, clean, and decorated with elements that reflect the region's characteristic rural stone architecture. The amenities are maintained to a high standard, compared by several guests to that of an upscale hotel at a significantly lower price. The immediate surroundings are quiet, as Pasarón de la Vera is not crossed by any high-traffic roads. The management is praised for the quality of its hospitality and the careful cleanliness of the spaces. The Monastery of Yuste, where Emperor Charles V retired following his abdication, is reachable in under twenty minutes. The historic villages of the comarca — Cuacos de Yuste, Jaraíz de la Vera, Losar de la Vera — can be visited within a thirty-kilometer radius. Casa Rural El Tomillar holds a rating of 4.7 out of 5 based on 87 Google reviews.

Loved this place! Cozy, quiet, stunning surroundings and beautifully decorated! Would be back for sure, anytime!
Excellent customer service and extremely clean rooms. We stayed over a week, the amenities are clean and done to high standards. Best way to describe its like a 5 stars Hotel for a fraction of the price. Location is great and surround by nature!! The best retreat ever and highly advisable. Only recommendation is to book early as they are always pretty busy... Thanks for your warm welcome and your attention to detail. We will be back again 👍🏻
We spent four days with a group of friends with whom we've been running our "Autumn Camp" for over 25 years. We all loved it. When we opened the door, we found a clean, spacious, and beautifully decorated house with a variety of styles. It was equipped with a bathroom in each bedroom, plus one in the entrance hall, a living room/kitchen where we could gather around the table, comfortable mattresses, and a bathroom with everything we needed. Furthermore, Mari Luz (the house manager) was incredibly kind and attentive throughout our stay. In a few days, you'll find our #digitaltip on our blog.
Our group reservation has been cancelled after it was confirmed and we paid the required amount. Reason: “overbooking” IMPORTANT⚠️ Don't take reservations for granted; they can cancel at any time.
With the reservation confirmed and everything arranged, they called to tell us it had been canceled. I've never had an experience like this before, and I don't like to leave negative reviews, but it seems unprofessional that a confirmed reservation would be canceled two weeks later due to "overbooking." If that were the case, I wouldn't have been able to make the reservation in the first place and would have looked for another option.
