1. Introduction: Between Architectural Heritage and Contemporary Hospitality

In the heart of the estate stands this architectural gem, built in the 18th century under the commission of the Duke of Frías. 

Today, it combines its historical essence with modern facilities tailored to contemporary taste. From the outside, the house commands attention: stone walls, traditional architectural details, and eaves that speak of centuries of shelter and use. Yet, upon crossing the threshold, guests discover a space marked by thoughtful care—climate-controlled interiors, spacious rooms, cozy corners for quiet reflection, a spa that invites rest, and common areas designed to recharge both body and spirit.

 The contrast between old and new is no accident—it is intentional. The goal is to create an evocative atmosphere that speaks of history and tradition while enveloping visitors in the warmth and softness of refined, contemporary hospitality. ​

2. Common Spaces: Lounges, Reading Corners, Fireplace, and a Cozy Atmosphere

2.1. Welcoming Lounges and Fireplace

At the heart of the manor house are its lounges—spacious rooms with high ceilings, where classic elements such as noble wood and exposed beams blend seamlessly with elegant, comfortable furnishings. These spaces are ideal for gathering at sunset, whether to share hunting stories, enjoy good company, or simply unwind in a relaxed and trusting atmosphere.

The fireplace adds an extra touch of warmth and intimacy. Imagine the flickering light dancing over the stone walls, the gentle crackle of the fire, and the scent of burning wood… It’s the perfect setting for quiet conversation among guests, a toast to the day’s adventures, or a peaceful moment of reflection while listening to the embers glow. ​

​

2.2 El comedor: gastronomía y calidez humana

The dining room is another central gathering place in the house—a space where the aromas of home cooking mingle with the easy flow of conversation. It is here that the hospitality of the Coto truly comes to life: generous breakfasts before heading out into the fields, open-air lunches during the hunting day, and comforting dinners prepared with local ingredients upon returning home.

 In essence, the common areas serve as spaces for shared relaxation—places to socialize, exchange the day’s experiences, and reconnect after an active day in the field. ​

​

3. Rooms: Space, Tranquility, and Thoughtful Details

3.1. Size, Atmosphere, and Style

Each room in the manor house has been designed to offer guests a sense of spaciousness and serenity. 

High ceilings, generous windows, and décor based on natural materials—wood, stone, cotton, and linen—enhance the feeling of harmony with the surrounding landscape.

 The rustic charm is subtly complemented by contemporary touches: soft textiles, warm colors, and decorative details inspired by the hunting world and the Manchegan spirit. 

The atmosphere is peaceful and intimate, with soundproofing, individual heating, and adjustable lighting to match the guest’s mood and comfort. ​

​

​

3.2. Private Bathroom: Intimate Luxury

All rooms feature a fully equipped private bathroom, complete with a shower, plush towels, and high-quality toiletries.

 The bathrooms combine functionality with refined design—noble materials like wood and stone, bright spaces, well-lit mirrors, and carefully selected amenities for a superior experience.

 After a day of hunting, nothing is more rewarding than a hot shower or bath that soothes the muscles and restores both body and spirit. ​

​

​

4. Ultimate Well-being: The Spa and Restorative Moments

One of the defining features that elevates the stay at the manor house is its spa — conceived as a sanctuary for relaxation, recovery, and renewal after a day of hunting.

 The transition from the energy and excitement of the hunt to the calm serenity of the spa is intentional: it allows guests to disconnect, care for both body and mind, and end the day with a deeply restorative experience. ​

​

5. Service, Attention to Detail, and Genuine Hospitality

Beyond the walls, fireplaces, and comfortable beds, what truly defines a memorable stay is human service — the personal attention, the unseen details, the anticipation of every need.

 At Coto de Sotuélamos, attention to detail is present in every gesture:

 • A warm welcome and personal assistance from the very first greeting.
 • Staff knowledgeable about both hunting and the surrounding natural environment.
 • Flexible schedules tailored to each guest’s rhythm — hunting days, field meal times, or intervals between drives
. • In-house cuisine rooted in local gastronomy — traditional Manchegan dishes made with regional ingredients and adapted to modern tastes, designed to nourish after a day in the countryside.
 • Complementary and well-integrated services: transfers from nearby locations, logistical support (firearms, guides, dogs), and custom-designed packages.

 These elements ensure that guests don’t simply “spend the night” here — they live a complete, seamless experience from the moment they pass through the gates until their farewell. ​

6. Sensations, Disconnection, and Connection with the Environment

One of the unspoken promises of the manor house is its magical ability to make guests feel as though they’ve stepped back in time — a space where one can disconnect from the everyday world, leave behind the urban noise, and immerse fully in nature and the living memory of the land.

 During the stay, the senses awaken:
 • The silence of dawn and dusk, broken only by the wind, birdsong, and the soft rustle of branches.
 • The textures within: stone, wood, and natural fabrics that contrast beautifully with the surrounding landscape.
 • The changing light throughout the day — the first rays filtering through high windows, the brilliance of midday, the golden descent of sunset.
 • The scent of the countryside — earth, dry grass, wild scrub — greeting guests as they return from a day of hunting.
 • The deep sense of rest that follows physical and emotional exertion.

 This disconnection is, in truth, a reconnection — with nature, with oneself, and with the primal instinct of being outdoors, listening to silence, and even sharing it. ​
