Rural house with private garden
Casa Almenara is located in Almenara de Tormes, a typical Castilian municipality 15 km from the historic center of Salamanca. Casa Almenara is a renovated house that manages to combine the traditional flavor with the most modern comforts. Stone, slate and wood are the materials that support it, while a multitude of details give it beauty and originality. Its patio and garden create a quiet and harmonious space. A few meters away, the bell tower of a Romanesque church from the 12th century provides a unique and pleasant view.
The traditional village of Almenara deserves some walks in its surroundings including its river. The Tormes rests here in the lagoons that an old gravel farm has formed. The Graveras de Almenara are famous for the great ornithological activity and forest diversity, which have given reason to create a center of environmental initiative of obligatory visit.

There are more cycle routes. Fishing and canoeing are activities that visitors can exercise in the river. Pediment adjacent to the house. Municipal pool 5 minutes walk.

Increíble casa
Estuvimos un fin de semana, pero lo suficiente para desconectar y disfrutar.
Todo estaba increíble y precioso tanto el encanto de la casa y dueña como el pueblecito.
Lo único que nos fallo es el internet que era uno publico del pueblo. E Iva un poco mal.
Por lo demás excelente. 💕
