When most people think of Spain, they picture sizzling summers, sun-soaked beaches, and long evenings spent outdoors. But there’s a whole other side to Spanish life waiting to be discovered - especially in the beautiful Castellon countryside.

If you’re searching for the best winter stays in Spain, let us show you why Casa de Olivos near the Costa Azahar is your perfect escape.

Why Choose a Winter Stay in Spain?

Forget the idea that Spanish winters are cold and grey. Here on the Costa Azahar, winter feels more like a gentle English spring or autumn. From October to April, you’ll enjoy mild weather and plenty of sunshine - ideal for getting active or simply relaxing in nature.

Explore the Real Spain - Out of Season

Step away from the pool and discover the rugged beauty of Castellon’s interior.

Winter is the perfect time to explore charming villages, hike through the stunning natural parks of Sierra d’Irta and Tinença de Benifassà, or take a scenic road or mountain bike ride.

Our quiet roads and breathtaking landscapes offer something for every level of cyclist and walker.

A Foodie’s Paradise: Winter Gastro-Tourism

As the seasons change, so does our cuisine.

The region is famous for its winter delicacies—think truffles, mushrooms, nuts, and artichokes. Follow the Ruta Sabor (flavour route) to sample the best local produce, or join a tour at Acietes Peset to see ancient olive trees and taste world-class olive oil. Wine lovers will enjoy a visit to Clos, where you can experience the journey from vine to glass right at the vineyard.

At Casa de Olivos, guests can even join our Olive Harvest Experience - help us bring in the crop and learn how we’re restoring our historic olive groves.

Our local restaurants are a year-round delight, with chefs serving up seasonal, zero-kilometre ingredients. Don’t miss the Michelin-starred L’antic Moli, or nearby Casa dels Capellans in its historic setting.  And a visit to the artichoke festival in Benicarlò, where you can savour chargrilled artichoke hearts with fresh bread and local wine is a genuine gastronomic fiesta.

Your Cosy Winter Retreat at Casa de Olivos

After a day of adventure or indulgence, return to the peaceful sanctuary of Casa de Olivos.

Picture yourself unwinding by a mesmerising log fire, wrapped in a cosy blanket, or watching the sunset from The Perch. Enjoy a lazy barbecue in our new Sevillenca Club, or let us serve you breakfast on your private terrace.

For a true taste of Spain, try our authentic vegetable paella with a jug of our own, secret-recipe Sangria.
