Summary: Everything was fantastic. Clean warm house, no hassles to get everything working. Good directions to get there. Beautiful scenery and wonderful walks nearby. Weather was a bit wet, but c’est la vie, it didn’t spoil our enjoyment at all. Thanks.

Summary: I seriously don't even know where to begin our stay at the Old School House was that amazing! The drive to the house was spectacular, as we got to see fields of green and the quaint little village of Espinaredo. When we drove up the lane to the school house we couldn't believe how beautiful it was. The grounds were very well kept as there were cherries on the cherry tree, wild blackberries & strawberries, apples, pears everywhere. The creek was the icing on the cake! The school house was had everything one needed in it. Everything was in prefect working order, you could tell how much work & love the owners put into this place. We honestly felt it was a home away from home. The owners even had games & beach toys in the garage that my girls loved to play with. Everyday we would wake up to the sound of the creek, sound of the bells on the cows & horses in the area, eat some cherries, and think how lucky we were to find such a magical place for our stay. Marc & Lisa put so much effort into making this school house a place of tranquility. Thank you so much for letting us share a piece of your Spanish treasure. Con mucha gratitud, Tadd, Molly, Meadow, & Violet

Summary: This is a beautiful house in a remote hillside location. The scenery and views are fantastic. There is a stream at the end of the garden which you can swim in.The house is well equipped with garden stuff and cooking stuff- it is very comfortable. You can travel from the house to activities such as Kayaking and go karting (both of which I wold recommend); it is about 20-30 mins away. There is also lovely beaches about 40 mins away. The drives are quite mountainous I should warn you, but the views worth it. The local town Infiesto is lovely with nice square and cafes/restaurants. There you also get a local train to major cities. Also try and brush up on a little Spanish

Summary: Our French family stayed last July in the Old School. We enjoyed our stay. The surrounding nature, the house itself with the quality of its equipments: books, cooking. We really felt like in our own holiday cottage. Kids enjoyed the river, fruit from the trees and the big garden to play. For the parent, view from the balcony is so relaxing when you have the opportunity to observe wild animals. You must go there for the surrounding nature, the quality of the house... We definitively recommend that house.

Summary: Our third visit to The Old Schoolhouse and we have enjoyed it as much as ever. Beautifully presented and well-equipped, it is hard to imagine a more tranquil, relaxing place. And there has even been a major improvement to the road surface of the single-track lane that leads to the house! Great weather and always a delight to revisit the friendly little town of Infiesto close by. This year we went to Llanes on the coast for the first time and enjoyed it very much. It can be crowded with people out of Madrid in the high summer but at other times you can find parking quite readily and it's free. Less than two hours from the ferry at Santander, the house was a real haven after weeks of non-stop drilling at a property development opposite our home in crowded, noisy south-east England. Many thanks to Mark and Lisa once again. We will go back next spring.

Summary: This little house was a dream come true. Beautifully and thoughtfully equipped and in a fantadtic location, we were soothed to sleep each night by the sweet steam, spent peaceful days relaxing in the garden or exploring the stunning surroundings. Even a spot of jam making using plump golden plums from the fruit trees! Utterly blissful way to unwind and forget our hectic lifestyles in a magical and rural retreat. We WILL be back!.

Summary: This was our second stay at the Old School House, an absolute gem in a beautiful hidden valley not far from the very pleasant Asturian town of Infiesto. A small mountain river runs through the garden and the views are magnificent. Generally the only sounds are of running water and cow bells - and sometimes the mooing of cows. They are the only other life (apart from horses) regularly going up and down the narrow (and increasingly potholed, it has to be said) lane. Perhaps best not to take your prize Porsche, unless you are comfortable having it surrounded by large cattle with very big horns! Nearby there are lovely, deserted beaches, stunning mountain scenery and the fine city of Oviedo, the Asturian capital. Worth the fabulous drive alone is a visit to Leon, and the city itself, with its superb cathedral is most pleasing. Don't come to this part of Spain without a phrase book, and, if possible, a little Spanish, though everyone is most friendly and helpful. Above all, if you like all day breakfasts and sunburnt, drunken Brits, this area is definitely not for you. But if you want lovely scenery, tranquillity and great food, this is definitely the place to be.

Summary: The school house is a beautiful property in a really beautiful area of Spain. The owners are very prompt in replying to any inquiries and queries you might have. It is a very homely home from home, well equipped and has got a large garden with orchard. Our kids (5 and 3) enjoyed splashing about in the stream. From the house you can easily make day trips to the stunning mountains of Picos de Europa and to the lovely beaches at the coast (Vega beach was our favourite for surfing). You're only 20-30 min away from Ariondas where you can organise all sorts of outdoor activities. There are some supermarkets in Infiesto which is about a 10min drive from the house We can recommend this place if you are looking for a rustic holiday in a quite location with amazing scenery.

Summary: The house is well equipped and very comfortable. It is sited next to a narrow road that serves a few houses further up the valley, so traffic is minimal - more likely to be cows than cars. There are great views from the front and side down and across a picturesque valley that is lush and secluded. The house has an adjacent mown orchard area which slopes down to a mountain stream with big boulders, where we splashed about to cool down in the hot weather. My only observation is that if you have small children, you need to be out in the orchard area to supervise as the house does not overlook it and it is gated. Our children are teenagers so this was not an issue. Facilities are in Infiesto which is about 10km away. Beaches, mountains and museums etc all within easy driving distance as well as glorious walks on the doorstep. Owners were very helpful and provided local information.

Summary: A well maintained, clean property in a quiet location, with stunning scenery, about 7km from nearest town. Fully equipped inside, and secluded orchard/garden for relaxing on the garden furniture with a good book and wine! The owners provide a good information pack and point you in the direction of a really good restaurant at Infiesto. They respond promptly to any booking queries. There are several local walks from the house and there is a lovely wooded picnic area La Pesanca (with car park) where you can also walk, above Rifabar. It is an easy drive to visit the Picos de Europa or the north coast.
