My husband and I just returned from two weeks in Andalucia, and La Posada de Alajar was without question the highlight of a wonderful trip. While preparing for our travels, e-mail correspondence with Lucy and Angel was friendly, informative and conscientious - we walked to Alajar from Aracena, and Lucy made certain we knew how to get to the start... more

A simple and comfortable inn in a peaceful and a charming and very friendly village with intensely fragrant mountain air, unusual restaurants, and breathtaking views. Angel and Lucy will take good care of you, with advice about where to eat, where to walk, what to see and who to buy from; and the lovely Sofia will show you some of... more

We stayed for a week in early April and were enchanted with La Posada. Run by Lucy and Angel, it feels more like a home in which you are welcome friends than a hotel. The atmosphere is very relaxed and the location in the village centre but with day long walks from the door is just perect. We enjoyed a... more

Just back after spending six nights in this delightful, very comfortable, family-run posada in the heart of a lovely village. Our hosts, Angel and Lucy could not have been more welcoming or helpful and the breakfasts were delicious. more

After some pretty intensive partying in Granada, Cordoba and Sevilla, we were craving some peace and quiet in rural surroundings. We'd found La Posada de Alajar through their own well-maintained website and it looked like the right place with the added bonus that the small village of Alajar boasted some very good restaurants. Hosts Lucy and Angel were delightful, helpful,... more

We stayed in this little, delightful hotel for three nights and enjoyed it very much. The rooms are small, but there are excellent beds and looking from the small balcony we were right in the middle of this small village. Lucy and Angel were so helpful to give us best advice for trips, walks and restaurants (at that time they... more

We have just returned from a walking holiday, staying at La Posada. Angel and Lucy couldn't have been more helpful, advising us on our walks etc. The evening meals taken were very good and excellent value. What a good idea to have tea/coffee facilities, although not in the room but just outside ours. The rooms were small but more than... more

A "Posada" in Spanish is apparently a humble country inn. It might be humble but you will struggle to find a warmer welcome anywhere. Lucy and Angel make you feel at home straight away and are more than anxious to give you as much help as possible so that you can enjoy this beautiful area. Yes rooms are a bit... more
