What a lovely place to visit! We visited the monastery as part of a circular tour round the Valle de Jerte and it was an excellent stopping off place...particularly as the temperature was rising and the cloisters were beautifully cool. The last monks were in...More

Worth a visit!

Arrived at 12, the entrance fee was a bit much I thought. Couldn’t enjoy a good garden view because the lake was under construction. We hiked around from their which was easy to do.

Calm, peaceful, and historical.

A restored monastery could go either way, this was a beautiful find. Beautiful drive, lots of unexpected historical significance, and just the right amount of restoration. Also not crowded so one can enjoy. Don't miss the relics and the crypt. The overall experience-well worth it.

Lovely building/Sin servicios en Julio???

Lovely building in a superb setting. Not much info about Carlos one of the most famous kings of Spain. The setting is superb. However the plae had its toilets locked in the heights of summer! Bagnos/Aseos cerrados en Julio???! Que desastre
