Finca Fuente Techada is one of the 'insider tips' in the centre of Spain: Only a hundred kilometres north of Madrid, in rural remoteness at the foot of the Sierra de Guadarrama, which cools wonderfully on summer nights, with a view of the Romanesque church tower of the small village of Sotosalbos, about two kilometres away. Behind the gate at the end of the earthy driveway passing freely grazing cows lies a haven of relaxed generosity, good taste and attentive hospitality, just like at a friends' house. The cordial hosts Cristina and Alejandro 'are there' and at the same time 'not there'. Not more than a handful of spacious rooms with exquisitely laundered beds. We stayed for about eleven days and would have liked to stay longer. Sun, shade, swimming pool, walks, plenty of impressive scenery, culture and gastronomy within a radius of no more than 2 to 40 kilometres - and if needed, a bit of 'finca office' in one of the lounges of the spacious house. We want to come back, whatever the season! Dear Cristina and Alejandro: ¡Muchísimas gracias! Teresa + Florian from Berlin (July 2021).
