Hotel Spa La Senda de los Caracoles


The Hotel

There are some hotels which are ideal to be able to forget the world, this is the case, at the end of the path, at the end of the Little village of Ayllón. We are north of Segovia, close to the Burgos side of the Duero bank, in a remarkable landscape where the roe live in the juniper, thyme, rosemary and rock tea, strewn hills. And where the limestone adopts capricious shapes, like giant wild mushrooms, at the foot of which is the big house where the rural hotel with spa is located. A good offer of massages, meeting room with a fireplace and a restaurant with a Castilian menu, also with a fireplace as also the living room has. The river Aguisejo, an affluent of the river Duero, rises from the hotel itself. Round the corner from one of the rocks, which make the landscape so special, some griffon vulture’s nest, neighbours of royal owls and vultures, to name some of the singular birds found in the area.

Beatriz, Belén and Pablo make sure we have everything we need. The hotel has 15 rooms, each one with a different decoration, wooden ceiling, land line and without TV, so as to secure a total wellbeing. Some of the rooms have a view onto the limestone rocks, others onto the garden and the hills. The hotel also offers two balneotherapy-spa rooms with hydro massage tubs, three rooms for massages and body treatments, Turkish baths, contrast showers and a swimming pool with Jacuzzi, jets and swan neck hydrotherapy with enormous windows onto the countryside. Amongst the therapies, as well as hydrotherapy, chiropractic sports massage, myofascial and cranio-sacral
