    Lo que más me gustó es todo el espacio que hay para estar con perros. Tienes el río justo al lado para que se den un buen chapuzón. Hay una vía que llega hasta Plasencia que va rodeando el río.

Encinar del Abuelo is a unique rural retreat born from the love for a family home that, for generations, has been a place of rest and connection. We’ve preserved its rustic charm while equipping it with all the modern comforts to make our guests feel relaxed and at ease. The décor is warm and simple, with thoughtful details that reflect countryside living. What makes it truly special is its location: surrounded by nature, yet only 10 minutes from Plasencia and the stunning Jerte Valley—offering the perfect balance of peace and accessibility.
Welcome to Encinar del Abuelo! We’re truly excited to share our home with you. Hosting travelers allows us to keep the spirit of this house alive, and we love seeing each guest create their own memories here. We enjoy good conversation, paying attention to the little things, and seeing our guests unwind and feel at peace. We're passionate about nature, hiking, and discovering local products—so we’ll be happy to recommend authentic experiences and hidden gems in the area.
Guests love the calm and natural surroundings, the direct access to the riverside path, and the location—right between Plasencia and the Jerte Valley. In just 10 minutes, you can explore Plasencia’s historic center with its cathedral, lively main square, and traditional tapas bars. For nature lovers, the Jerte Valley offers hiking trails, natural pools, and the famous cherry blossom in spring. We also recommend visiting Monfragüe National Park, perfect for birdwatching. And if you're a foodie, there are excellent local restaurants nearby serving authentic Extremaduran cuisine.
