In the town of Camarma, just 30 km from downtown Madrid and 25 minutes from Madrid’s airport, ECM has a multi-use building that has served a great many purposes since it was opened in 2003. It has 5 bedrooms to house up to 10 guests and a full kitchen and dining room. There are also 2 offices, along with 2 meeting spaces—one that can hold a meeting of up to 25 people and another for a smaller group of 5 or 6.
