Traditional Asturian Finca, Nature Lover's Dream
Tranquil Location in Idyllic Mountain Setting
Sleeps 2 (1 Bedroom)
|
|
Set in beautiful walking country, the house provides an increasingly rare opportunity to experience unspoilt rural Spain. It is ideal for the independent-minded traveller who enjoys the natural world and is looking for something a little bit different. Perched on the side of an exquisite valley, the house commands spectacular views. Very much in the old Asturian country style yet with modern amenities and recently rewired, the accommodation is all on one level directly accessed from the drive. The centre of the house is a pleasant family kitchen with small utility room, from which wooden stairs lead to a storage loft space upstairs. There is a small sitting room, one double bedroom and a modern bathroom with wc. Below the accommodation floor is a barn space which is used to store wood.

Guest comments
Have really enjoyed staying in your mountain hideaway, it was close enough to the beach and the weather was mostly kind. Earl and Ellis, Amsterdam.
We are in the finca and it's better than the pictures, smells and sounds lovely out here. Thank you. Alison Sykora/Cowal Peninsula.
Thank you for renting out your lovely home to us for the week, we found it compact and wonderful-just the right size, looking forward to visiting again. Russell and Jane Perth W. Australia (London).
Thank you for renting us your villa. We love the remote location and peaceful countryside. What a relaxing pace of life people live here! Ruth and Gordon/England.
We had a lovely stay here at 'El Bechegal' we felt like the only humans that existed-it was great! Alan/Lyn/Rowan and Carol/ Andalucia.
We had a lovely stay at El Bechegal. It suited us down to the ground, never had a mountain valley to ourselves before so it's something we'd like to repeat! Thank you. Matt and Esther St.
Owner profile
About the owner
I live in the beautiful west of Scotland, but I grew up in Spain in the 1960s. I work as a designer and my husband is an architect.
Why the owner chose a home in this location
I fell in love with Asturias because it reminded me so much of the unspoilt Spain in which I grew up. Tourism has barely reached the areas where we have our properties. It is an astoundingly beautiful country and we have found the Asturians to be warm and generous spirited people, rich in their traditions, and respectful of the natural world. The geological contrasts within the country are extraordinary too, as the land sweeps from the Picos de Europa mountain range down to quite wonderful bays, where you can still find yourself the only people on the beach.
