We are a family of 4 with two children 8 and 10. While they are happy to travel with us, we need to give them some fun time. They love swimming and I am trying to find a low price hotel/hostal/rural house that is either in Chinchion, Aranjuez or Teledo - where they can cool off. The web site for Hostal Chinchon is not working -I sent an e mail -no reply - is it closed -any other ideas? Can we use camping site pools -are there public pools in these areas. We want to stay around for about 6 days.

Aaaah... I'm guessing you have a POP-UP BLOCKER installed on one of your browsers. When you go to http://www.hostalchinchon.com/ a pop-up pops-up with the information of the website which has FLASH menus. I just tried it myself and saw a fast "BLIP!" and noticed that a pop-up had been blocked from the site, I UNblocked the site, and reloaded the page. THAT'S when I saw what was happening.

As for the non-reply of your email, not sure to which email address you were sending the message. Their website says it's hostal@hostalchinchon.com .

Please let us know if you continue having problems connecting to the website - which is only in Spanish, by the way.

Oh, and yes, they have a swimming pool.

Yes - I have managed to get the site...thanks -I have sent another e mail -perhaps I'll get a friend to write in Spanish - my Spanish is dismal so far. It looks like a nice place that might keep everyone happy for a few days - and is close to the other things we want to see and do.
