Asturias holiday farmhouse: Pico Los Rozos

The Farmhouse: La Cumbre accommodates up to 5 people in a two-story, 4 bedroom, 1 bathroom farmhouse. Lovingly restored with many of its original features this house makes for a comfortable stay in a quiet, rural setting. Found on an organic smallholding we, the owners (Spanish and American), keep a few cows, sheep and chickens. La Cumbre was first renovated as our own home therefore the kitchen is well-equipped for those fond of cooking and fresh herbs and flowers are available for the picking. The open downstairs is spacious, sunny and comfortable with great views and a wood burning stove and plenty of firewood to keep it warm on chilly evenings. Upstairs are the 4 bedrooms and the full bath with bathtub. The house is nicely furnished with a mix of antiques and traditional Asturian pieces all working together to make it feel like home. We pay special attention to good beds, reading lamps and those othere details that make a place feel like home.

Clean and Organic : Because we are committed to protecting the environment and enjoy our organic lifestyle our linens are washed in natural soaps and sun dried. The house has features which save on energy and we encourage recycling. The chickens are the first step in the composting process. We do not own a tractor or heavy farm machinery therefore the place is doubly safe for children since there is no through traffic. Organic dry food items are available for purchase and we are always happy to share the seasonal abundance of the garden. Our enthusiasm for Asturias is obvious and we are happy to help you with translations, reservations and tips on where to eat and what to see. There is a great deal of information in the house about Asturias as well as in the library. We appreciate hearing about what you've found along the way. Asturias is full of pleasant surprises.
