Where to stay in Botija
Botija is a small village, so accommodation options are limited locally. Your best bet is to stay in Town Centre if you can find a rural house or guesthouse, or base yourself in nearby Cáceres and make the short drive out for market days.
From Cáceres you get comfortable hotels, good restaurants, and easy access to the surrounding area. It's a practical choice that lets you explore more of Extremadura while keeping Botija well within reach.
