Hostería Palacete
Rural de la Seda (tourist hotel)
Veredera de Catalán, Pedanía de Santa
Cruz
Tel: 968 87 08 48
Palatial house dating from the XVII century which was,
initially, the centre of a grape-growing and wine industry
before becoming, after a terrible plague of phylloxera,
the place for the cultivation of the silk worm cocoon,
a flourishing industry and one of the main resources
of the municipality until the XX century. The Palacete,
also known as the Hospedería Rural de la Seda,
is a museum in which the furniture, upholstery, stuccoed
ceilings, chapel, gardens and setting make it a place
which deserves a visit. There is also a restaurant where
you can sample some of the delicious dishes on offer.
