Since a few months ago we have a new helper who has appeared by surprise, his name is “Manchitas” and we can assure that he is the earliest riser of all. Before the first rays of sunshine he is already at the door of the garden waiting for us.
The garden is his territory, and he can just as easily be on top of a tree, under a chair or crossing between your legs. But he likes to keep his distance, so he always stays a couple of steps away from everyone and loves to be played with.
Our castle is an accommodation that admits your pets, do not hesitate to contact us when you want to make a reservation.

On December 16, Bulbuente Castle hosted an important literary event: the meeting between the renowned writer Luis Zueco and more than 60 members of the book clubs of the Campo de Borja region belonging to the towns of Ainzón, Borja, Bulbuente, Fuendejalón, Magallón, Maleján and Mallén. The day included an attractive cultural program that included a guided visit to the Palace Castle, currently converted into a charming lodging where Luis Zueco himself is the director.
Subsequently, the different reading clubs were presented and an enriching sharing of their functioning and objectives took place. Special emphasis was placed on the importance of municipal public libraries as a support for the reading clubs and their role as cultural promoters.
The main event consisted of an interesting analysis by the writer on the presence and weight of the female figure in his literary universe, with special attention to his latest novel El tablero de la reina (Ediciones B), which has been the second best-selling novel in Aragon in 2023, and one of the most outstanding in Spain.
At the end of Luis Zueco’s speech, attendees were able to exchange impressions with him and ask questions, and the day was completed with a fantastic outdoor concert by Marta’s Way, during which members of the book clubs were able to continue exchanging experiences and enjoying a closer relationship with Luis Zueco. This day organized by the Comarca de Campo de Borja was financed by the IAM, within the framework of the collaboration agreement signed with the regional entity.

On Saturday, December 16, a first class literary event will be held at the Castle of Bulbuente, with the participation of members of the reading clubs of the municipal libraries of the Campo de Borja region and the writer Luis Zueco.
This conference organized by the Comarca de Campo de Borja is funded by the IAM, under the collaboration agreement signed with the regional entity. Attendees will be members of the book clubs that meet regularly to encourage the relationship between people interested in literature, promoting dialogue and exchange of opinion on the selected readings and providing different points of view from respect to their attendees.
The cultural event will begin with a guided tour of the Castle Palace of the Abbots of Veruela, a fortress restored and refurbished as a charming accommodation and venue for various cultural events, of which Luis Zueco is the director. Since the first novel by Luis Zueco was published in 2011, his career has been consolidated in the national scene as one of the main references of historical novels with wide international repercussion, having been translated into several languages.
The day, designed as a meeting of coexistence between the different book clubs, puts the focus on the female figures that populate the work of Luis Zueco, especially his latest creation “El tablero de la Reina”, which will be the subject of the talk-colloquium.
The final touch will be provided by the musical performance of the Ainzonera group Marta’s Way.
The collaboration of the Municipal Public Libraries of Ainzón, Borja, Fuendejalón, Maleján, Mallén and Magallón and the Reading Club of Bulbuente, the host municipality of this event, is worth mentioning.
The municipal public libraries are an essential cultural resource in the life of our municipalities, the driving force behind various initiatives, among which are the management or support of reading clubs and the proposal of events of a regional nature, such as this one, which is intended to be perpetuated over time.
