Mombeltrán is a small villege located in the Barranco de las Cinco Villas, very close to many hiking trails. It owes its name to the famous noble and politician Don Beltrán de la Cueva. Its main attractions are the Castle of the Dukes of Alburquerque and the St. John the Baptist Church. If you visit Mombeltrán you have to taste the typical chuletón de Ávila with a glass of Rueda Wine.
Here are the best places to stay in Mombeltrán.
Our first suggestion is the Casa Rural Los Olivos, a spacious and bright country house with large wooden windows. There are two floors and the first one has a big dining room for common use.
The Balcones de la Villa is another country house for up to 18 people. It’s perfect for all kinds of events and it has a swimming pool, a barbecue and a wine cellar.
And last, but not least, the Hostal del Duque, a hostel located close to Parque de la Soledad. It has 8 rooms on 3 floors, with rustic decoration and hardwood furniture. A cot is available upon request and you can taste traditional dishes in the coffee bar.
A little further south of Mombeltrán (10 km) you will find the Retiro de San Pedro, on the outskirts of the village of Arenas de San Pedro. It’s located in the Sierra de Gredos and in the middle of the Tiétar Valley, surrounded by nature. It offers 7 spacious rooms with comfortable beds, even if the decoration is a bit extravagant.
