Rural house in La Pedriza. Wellness, disconnection and nature.

Close to rock climbing, birdwatching, and more, this family-friendly chalet brings it all within reach. Let your feet make short work of the 14-minute walk to Castle of Manzanares el Real or easily tackle the 17-minute drive to Ermita Nuestra Senora del Rosario.

After you return, you can unwind by the outdoor pool or sip a drink in the garden; you may also like the deck or patio and firepit. As for the great indoors, you can try your hand at foosball and table tennis, or enjoy the free WiFi and cable/satellite TV.

As you settle into the place, you'll find a living room, a BBQ grill, a fireplace, and air conditioning. Bathroom amenities include a hair dryer, a bidet, and towels. Prepare a home-cooked meal in the kitchen, complete with an oven, a stovetop, and a refrigerator, as well as a coffee maker, an electric kettle, and a lobster pot. And there is a laundromat nearby so you can pack a bit lighter.
