The story
On the road EX-203, just outside Jaraíz de la Vera, Villa Xarahiz is both a rural hotel and a restaurant rooted in the landscape of the Comarca de la Vera. The property blends rustic charm with modern comfort – a place where meals are served in a relaxed dining room or, when the weather allows, on an outdoor terrace. The kitchen draws on the region’s culinary richness, using fresh, local produce to create dishes that speak plainly of Extremadura.
The restaurant offers two tasting menus that let diners explore the kitchen’s range. The Menú Degustación La Finca presents nine courses for 55€, while the more extensive Degustación Villa Xarahiz runs to thirteen courses at 80€. Both change with the seasons and the market, but the approach remains consistent: honouring the ingredients of the Vera comarca with careful technique and clean flavours. No dish names are listed on the menu page, but the promise is one of authentic, regionally inspired cooking.
In 2026, Villa Xarahiz earned a Michelin Bib Gourmand – an award that recognises good quality, good value cooking. For a restaurant that lets the local landscape guide its menu, the distinction feels natural. Whether you come for a long lunch after exploring the surrounding countryside or for a multi-course dinner, the cooking here is direct, generous, and rooted in place.
