Los 10 mejores rentales vacacionales de Cazorla

If you are looking at a vacation rental in Cazorla, the first thing you should know is that the town is divided into two well-differentiated areas when it comes to sleeping. The old town, around Plaza de Santa María and the church of San Francisco, is ideal if you want to walk everywhere: bars, shops, and the stroll along the wall. Here, accommodations are usually renovated stone houses, with steep streets and little parking; if you drive a large car, consider whether the charm is worth the hassle of maneuvering. The other area is the lower part and the road out towards the natural park, where you will find more modern apartments and hotels with easy parking. From there, the center is a ten or fifteen minute walk, but the uphill return is tiring if you go with children or elderly people.

The main difference between one option and another lies in tranquility and access. In the historic center, the atmosphere is more authentic, but in high season there can be noise at night. On the outskirts, on the other hand, you will sleep better and have easier access to head out towards the Sierra de Cazorla, Segura y Las Villas, which is the main reason to come here. If what you are looking for is nature, you should look at accommodations on the road to La Iruela or even in the town of La Iruela itself, two kilometers away, where the castle is and the views are spectacular. However, there are fewer services there and you definitely need a car.

As for prices, the low season (from November to March, except long weekends) is when you find nights from €57. The average for the municipality is €111 per night, and in summer or Easter week it rises considerably, especially in apartments with a pool. To get there, the most common is to go via the A-32 from Úbeda or the A-319 from Jaén; there is no train or airport nearby, so a car is essential to move around the park. Before booking, check if the accommodation has heating (in winter it is really cold), if the kitchen is fully equipped for cooking, and if the price includes bed linen and towels, because that is not always the case. Also review the cancellation policy and whether they charge an extra cleaning fee, which sometimes does not appear at first glance.
