Nestled against the beautiful mountain setting and surrounded by centuries-old trees, this exceptional estate spans 1,500 acres of chestnut, oak, strawberry and many other species. The forests are home to deer, wild boar, and other wildlife. The sumptuous palace and chapels on site, built in the 14th and 15th centuries, bear witness to the history of this place.
This palace has been the residence of religious orders, Catholic monarchs, and modern millionaires. Queen Isabella of Spain even called it "her paradise" after staying there. The palace has been declared a national monument.
The walled property features beautiful Moorish gardens with fountains, a beautiful chapel decorated with Flemish frescoes and a Baroque altarpiece. A second chapel with Baroque details houses some of the most important Gothic paintings in the area. The exterior of the building is embellished with red-tiled roofs and elaborate carvings. The fourteenth-century Mudejar façade is one of the best examples of the period.
