La Traviesa, Villacarrillo Overview
La Traviesa is a rural stay in Villacarrillo, Spain, set on the Sierra de Las Villas along the carretera embalse del aguascebas, where days tend to run to the rhythm of the reservoir and the surrounding hills. Check in runs from 4:00 PM to 5:00 PM and check-out is at 12:00 PM, which helps keep the schedule calm and predictable.
Guests describe the atmosphere as quiet and outdoors-focused, with many valuing the setting for unwinding rather than sightseeing all day. The swimming pool is a straightforward highlight for warm afternoons, and the terrace gives you a place to linger after a walk. If you’re traveling with pets, La Traviesa allows them, and that’s a point repeatedly mentioned by visitors who don’t want to leave their animals behind.
Practical touches matter here too: free wired internet helps for basic planning, and there’s self parking available for a surcharge plus covered parking options. Some reviews note that offsite parking can be discounted, which is useful if you’re arriving by car and want to keep costs under control.
For nearby context, Embalse del Aguascebas is about 1 km away, making it easy to reach for short lakeside breaks. Sierra de Cazorla Natural Park is roughly 25 km from the hotel for longer day hikes and nature excursions. In Villacarrillo, Parque de La Constitución is around 18 km, offering a calmer option when you want a change of pace.
La Traviesa is best for couples, families, and solo explorers who want a pet-friendly base with a pool and easy access to reservoir and mountain scenery, and who are comfortable driving to reach town services.
