El Chalet de los molinos, Los Molinos Overview
El Chalet de los molinos is located in Los Molinos, Spain. Rated 9.6 out of 10 based on 1 guest reviews.
El Chalet de los molinos in Los Molinos, Spain, is a countryside base on Calle de los Siete Picos, suited to travelers who want space, outdoor time, and a calm rhythm away from the city. The stay is rated 9.6/10 based on a small number of guest comments, with visitors highlighting the overall comfort and the way the property supports relaxed days in the mountains. The outdoor setup is a big part of the appeal: you can cool off in the swimming pool, unwind on the terrace with outdoor furniture, and use the BBQ facilities for simple meals when the weather is good. Indoors, the home is designed for group living with multiple bedrooms and living areas, so everyone can spread out without constantly sharing the same space. A shared lounge/TV area also helps when you want an easy evening at home.
Location-wise, Los Molinos is a practical starting point for nature excursions, with Embalse de El Atazar about 18 km away for lakeside scenery and Peñalara Natural Park roughly 35 km from the property for higher-altitude hikes. For more rugged granite landscapes, La Pedriza is around 45 km, while Madrid’s major landmarks like El Escorial are about 55 km for a day trip.
This is best for families and small groups who value privacy, pet-friendly stays, and outdoor amenities, and who don’t mind planning around a rural setting. Check-in runs from 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM, and check-out is at 12:00 PM.

Should You Book El Chalet de los molinos?
Worth booking if you want a quiet countryside base with outdoor space and a calm pace, as the property is rated very highly (9.6/10) by guests. The main trade-off is that the rating is based on only 1 review, so you’re betting on consistency rather than broad consensus.
Best For
- Families needing room to spread out and a relaxed setting, with family rooms available
- Pet owners traveling with their dogs, since pets are allowed
- Groups or friends who want to cook outdoors and enjoy shared downtime, with BBQ facilities and a shared lounge/TV area
- Nature-focused travelers using Los Molinos as a base for day trips to Embalse de El Atazar, Peñalara Natural Park area, and La Pedriza
Not Ideal For
- Travelers who rely on lots of nearby dining options within walking distance, since only a few nearby restaurants are listed
- Those who need frequent airport-to-hotel transport options, as the closest major airport is Madrid-Barajas Adolfo Suárez Airport (55 km) and the area is more regional/countryside
- Lightly risk-averse bookers, since the 9.6/10 score is based on just 1 review rather than many independent stays
What to Expect
You arrive to a countryside feel on Calle de los Siete Picos, settling into a non-smoking room in a calm, outdoor-oriented setting. The terrace and outdoor furniture make it easy to slow down, and the swimming pool adds a simple, relaxing routine during downtime. In the shared lounge/TV area, you can keep things low-key after a day of exploring nearby nature spots. The single available review points to strong overall comfort, suggesting guests leave feeling well looked after and at ease.
Location Intelligence
Los Molinos positions you for day trips to Embalse de El Atazar (18 km) and larger nature areas like Peñalara Natural Park area (35 km) and La Pedriza (45 km). Madrid skyline viewpoints in the Manzanares valley are about 60 km away, and El Escorial Monastery is roughly 55 km, making it workable for planned excursions. With Madrid-Barajas Adolfo Suárez Airport at 55 km, expect a drive for transfers rather than relying on walkability.
