BEFORE YOU MAKE A RESERVATION
We start our journey. October 2021.
Unfortunately we had to amend this heading in several occasions. Firstly it was Spring 2020, then we moved to Autumn 2020, Summer 2021, and finally, October 2021. We could envisage some delay due to burocratic needs and unexpected but reasonable adversities; but not a pandemic or the Filomena storm (the icing on the cake…)
We had to be cautious, and decided to mainly open at the weekends and long weekends. That is why our reservations system do not show as bookable most days during the week. The minimum stay is two days (or more days in certain long-weekends, Christmas and Easter). And no differences are made between high and low seasons.
Like all general rules, this allows exceptions. If you are interested in a different stay during the week or a professional retreat, just for a day or several days, please call us or write. We will be happy to organize it.
To take into consideration.
NO PETS ALLOWED
We apologize in advance, we have initially decided not to admit pets. However,. some guests have decided to leave their pets with experienced pet keepers in Ávila that we may recommend.
CHECK-IN AND CHECK-OUT
All rooms will be ready for check in from 16 h. If you plan to arrive earlier, please give us a ring. In any event you may drop your luggage and start visiting the “dehesa” or the Caserío. We will be introducing an on-line check-in system, quicker and safer.
Check out will be at 12 h. Although you may leave your luggage with us while you say goodbye to the “dehesa” or the Caserío (it will not be easy to say goodbye to a unimaginable place.…).
RESERVATION CONDITIONS
Even before opening the Caserío, the PSD2 (Payment Service Directive) changed the way in which payments are to be made, now requiring the need of a SCA (Strong Customer Authentication). This affects advance payments, cancellation policies or even the use of on-line payment interfaces by hotels.
The reservation and cancellation policies described below are aplicable to the reservations made directly with us through our e-mail, phone or Web. The reservations made through agencies or external channels may have their own policies for advance payments, cancellations, etc
If you directly phone us or send us an e-mail for making a reservation (that is, our preferred ways to be contacted, even in English), we will kindly ask you for an advance payment adapted to your concrete needs (days, groups, rooms, etc.). We will understand the reservation to be completed when we receive the requested 50% advance payment, usually by wire transfer in this route, and we send you a subsequent confirmation e-mail. Advance payment is also asked through the interface reservation and payment process in place in the Web (50% as a general rule).
Payment of the outstanding balance (in principle 50% for the stay plus additional expenses incurred) will be made at check-out through a credit card pin terminal.
As a general rule, no total prepayments will be required at the time of the booking. Such a general rule may be exempt in the case of certain dates of arrival and/or offers and groups.
Making a booking and related advance payment implies client´s acceptance of our cancellation policy.
CANCELLATION POLICY
Up to 7 days before the scheduled date of arrival, the cancellation will not entail costs, and we will reimburse the advance payment received. As an example, if arrival is to take place at 16h on a Friday, the cancellation will have to be communicated in writing before 16h of the previous Friday.
If the cancellation is communicated less than 7 days in advance to the scheduled date of arrival, there will be no reimbursement of the advance payment received.
If the cancellation takes place, or there is no show, on the very same date of arrival scheduled, or the cancellation takes place during the stay, the full booking made will be due.
Special cancellation conditions may be set up in the event of special reservations such as Christmas celebrations. Corporate offsites or other ad hoc budget petitions.

Just let us know in advance. Naturally we especially have in mind children after a long day. Regarding allergies, one of our daughters is allergic to several foods. We are especially concerned with and sensible of all allergies, intolerances and dietary needs.

In any event, experience shows that having flexibility on the times scheduled for meals is always a good recommendation.
