Castronuño is in the middle of the Natural Reserve for birds in the Duero river. From the pointview you can see the sunset, storks, young eagles, lapwings and other birds singing like in a symphony.
The river takes lila and mauve colours and it seems like something is going to break at that time.
From the observatory in the documentation centre you can watch birds in the lake.
You also can ask for information at the centre.
You just have to lie down on the ground, close your eyes and hear the trill of the birds and the light breeze which swings the branches of the black poplars.
The direct contact with the earth gives you plenty of an unusual energy and, when you open your eyes and discover the blue sky, you realize that you come back from a refreshing journey and, when you get up, it seems like you feel happier.
Activities
HORSE RIDING:
- Riding horses is a pleasure. But if any violence is used and we only look for the communication with the animal, we can establish a relationship which develops sensitiveness and personal growing (Integral magazine).
- The riding school is placed in the middle of the Reserve. You can ride by the sandy paths in the pine groves, go up crests and distinguish the Reserve and the river.
- Riding classes are taught into the riding school and the fees are 6 euros (40 minutes).
- The fees for just walking are 12 euros (one hour and 15 minutes).
WALKING:
- You can walk by La Senda de los Almendros route (The Path of the Almonds) (pictures). This path goes to San José dam, borders the Reserve and goes up to Castronuño drawing a circle.
- There is other longer route (GR-14). Call us if you need more information.
There are also other non official routes.
AGROTURISMO:
- You can visit us to our farm (3 kms from the house) and pick the natural products of our vegetable garden (tomatoes, zucchini, pumpkins, watercress, peppers, egg plants, lettuces, plumbs, cherries, apples, pears, grapes, nuts, walnuts, melons, watermelons).
- You can come to the garden, DO THE SHOPPING AT THE GARDEN and so enjoy seeing your products just reaped or we can SERVE IT TO YOU to the house if you prefer doing anything else (swimming-pool, walking, biking, excursion). (We can set up for you a picnic, for example).

La casa es maravillosa así como los propietarios, encantadores. Hemos estado tres familias 6 adultos y 8 niños, todos encantados, los niños felices con su apartamento y nosotros con la tranquilidad que esto conlleva ,relajados.
El lugar es precioso, el restaurante la malvasia exquisito. Un sitio para recomendar.
Hemos estado 13 personas en la casa 6 adultos y 7 niños, la casa es un lujo, le faltan algunas cortinas de plastico para que las moscas no entren en la casa, asi como una pequeña ducha o mangera para refrescar en el patio. Pero por lo general la recomiendo ya que como he dicho es un lujazo de casa asi como los alrededores, al lado del rio Duero, una maravilla.
Casa Rural preciosa, todo muy cuidado y cómodo. Apuesta segura. Muy amplia y con detalles como deyuno, fuente de frutas, TV planas en todas las habitaciones de agradecer.La dueña muy atenta da facilidades para todo. Obligatorio para los amantes del vino. Las cata de vino se hace en la propia casa y no te la puedes perder.Esteban eres un crack!!Sólo por la cata vale la pena ir.Volvemos seguro!!
Todo perfecto,

Hemos estado quince personas, 7 adultos y 8 niños, toda la Semana Santa. Todo genial.. La casa preciosa, limpísima; el desayuno de Mª José delicioso; la cena de "La Malvasía", un lujo; la planta de arriba para los niños, perfecta. Una casa llena de detalles, muy acogedora y muy calentita, con el frío que ha hecho estos días.
Sin duda, una casa para recomendar.

Acabamos de volver de pasar el Puente de los Santos en esta casa y, la recomendamos por encima de todo. Hemos estado 9 adultos y 3 niños, y, después de estar en bastantes casas rurales, esta es la más limpia con diferencia. Aunque intentaras buscar algún resto de suciedad en la casa era imposible encontrarlo. Ya con eso gana un montón de puntos, pero si encima le añades que no le falta ni un detalle en cuanto a utensilio de cocina, mantas, toallas, etc. la casa es perfecta. Además Mª José es un
