Finca Alto del Cenador takes corporate events, product launches, conventions and weddings from 50 guests in its smaller halls to 5,000 under marquees, with lodging, a spa and in-house catering on the estate. The finca covers more than 600,000 m² in Seseña, in the province of Toledo, at kilometer 42 of the A-4, about 35 minutes south of Madrid.
Seminars and company events
The estate sells large-format company events: product launches for vehicles and machinery, live demonstrations and technical exhibitions, hands-on training, conventions, strategy meetings, team building, sports events and filming. The open grounds allow vehicles and equipment to be shown outdoors. The glazed main hall is fitted with a stage, a multimedia projector and a sound system for presentations. The grounds are fenced, with CCTV and access control, and the estate can arrange helicopter or hot-air balloon arrivals for special occasions. Smaller groups use the secondary halls, and the estate also hosts retreats, yoga and mindfulness sessions.
Weddings and receptions
Weddings are the other main activity. Civil ceremonies take place in the stone amphitheater, under the covered Cenador or, in bad weather, inside the glazed hall. The welcome drink is served in the cocktail area by the lakes, followed by the banquet in a hall or under a marquee. A chill-out zone with Balinese beds is used for the late part of the evening.
Rooms and capacities
The glazed main hall is climate-controlled and seats 50 to 500 guests, for banquets or ceremonies. Secondary halls with views of the lakes take 50 to 150. El Cenador, a covered outdoor space, seats up to 400 for a ceremony. The natural stone amphitheater takes up to 2,000. The cocktail area, with gardens and access to the lakes, holds up to 1,000. Marquees on the grounds bring the total to 5,000 guests. Large parking areas sit inside the estate.
Accommodation
The estate has rustic, high-end lodging in bungalows and cave-style houses, including a suite. Guests also have a spa with sauna and Turkish bath and a heated indoor pool open all year. The site does not state the number of rooms, so the share of a large group that can sleep on site is confirmed on request.
Catering
Catering is handled in-house by La Chalota Catering, which cooks on the estate rather than in a central kitchen. Menus range from traditional banquets to signature menus with wine pairing, live cooking at the cocktail (ham, cheese, sushi, oysters) and themed food stations. Menus adapt to celiac, nut-allergic, lactose-intolerant, vegetarian and vegan guests, and a private tasting is held on site once a booking is well advanced.
History and setting
The finca stands on high ground with views over the Aranjuez area. Its gardens, lake and waterfall, meadows and open land give room to stage the ceremony, the cocktail and the dinner in separate areas, and to run several spaces at once.
Getting there
From Madrid, the A-4 leads directly to the entrance at kilometer 42, a drive of about 35 minutes. Aranjuez, which has a rail station, lies a few kilometers to the south, and Madrid-Barajas airport is reached by the M-50 ring road.
