Peaceful location
This is a lovely finca, very clean, well equipped and nicely furnished and in it’s own grounds. Had lovely walks with our dog and very often accompanied by a lovely greyhound who must live nearby. The location is remote and very peaceful and relaxing. No Wi-Fi or English tv in the guest finca though so take plenty of books (there are also plenty of books in the finca) and make sure you shop before arriving. Large Carrefour in Palencia about 20 minute drive. Local town worth visiting and also has shops and a bar. Also check out the website as recommendations for local places to visit are excellent and a good alternative to the bigger cities. . Favourite was the Roman mosaics. Would recommend and definitely book again if we visit this area again

Tranquil Retreat in a Beautiful Setting
Using the Finca as a weekend retreat for friends to reconnect after a long COVID quaratine, Cristina has assembled a beautiful property in the Castilian plains. The rooms were tastefully decorated and the pool was refreshing on the hot June days. Please note that the Finca is isolated and there are not many tourist sites in Palencia (although I highly recommend the cathedral in Palencia which is relatively unknown even in Spain). Well worth the trip.

Picture perfect.
Our stay in Cristina’s guest house was everything we had imagined and more! The house itself was fully equipped with all life’s essentials, a book shelf with every classic known to man, lots of space (excellent for families with kids) and the pool was picture perfect. Cristina was a wonderful host, so kind and caring, she showed us around her home which was an incredibly intimate walk through time, we were absolutely mesmerised by the art and furniture from her ancestors which she so incredibly maintains and restores. She even gave us her home made tomato chutney and honey which was so delicious. Our children loved saying their daily “Holas” to the chickens, donkey and dogs that live on the property. We even managed to squeeze in some day trips to Bilbao and to La Rioja for some wine tasting in the Basque region. For anyone that would like to stay in a tucked away cottage surrounded by fields of gold and yellow (so many incredible sunflowers growing like patchwork’s on a quilt) to rest in the calm and quiet of a small town (though Palencia is not far away for some shopping and wandering) this is the perfect getaway. I can’t recommend this place enough. Thank you Cristina for everything. X

A supremely wonderful experience
The House is fantastic in the most glorious setting. The host was terrific and ensured everything was perfect for us. It is winter and temperatures as low as -6 but the house was beautifully warm and comfortable. She allowed us to stay with our dogs that loved the outdoors and the 50 hectares of the Finca. It really was amazing and I am looking forward to returning one day soon. Anyone who stays there I think will consider themselves to be very, very fortunate. There cannot be as many places as wonderful as this.

Todo perfecto
El alojamiento cumple ampliamente con las expectativas, es una casa muy agradable y acogedora. Ideal para viajar con perro. Nos han encantado el ventanal del salón a la finca. Cristina se encarga de cuidar todos los detalles, haciendo que tengas en la casa todo lo que necesitas y más. La finca es enorme y tiene diferentes caminos para recorrerla. En definitiva, un lugar al que volver.
