Where to stay in Villanueva de la Vera
Villanueva de la Vera is a small village, so staying in or close to the historic centre puts you within easy walking distance of the market and the pretty Plaza Mayor. Try Casco Histórico for the most convenient base, where rural guesthouses and casas rurales keep you right in the heart of things.
If you prefer a bit more comfort, the nearby town of Jarandilla de la Vera has a wider choice of accommodation and is just a short drive away. Jarandilla de la Vera makes a practical alternative, especially if you plan to explore the wider Vera valley during your visit.
