Description

Near Cudillero fishing port, atop the mountain known as El Pito, or The Whistle, this stately house built by indianos evokes the pride of those Spaniards who made their fortune in the Americas during the late 19th century. Thanks to the respectful work of Montse Abad, the colors of the past welcomes travelers today from the gated entryway, to the neoclassic façade and the creamy interior spaces. Oranges, burgundy and brick. Whites and greens. Ocean blue. The pleasant proprietor of indiano exoticism with her gardens filled with camellias, magnolias, oak and araucaria trees, pampers her house with more than just flowers. The principal living room divides its space between reading and restoring, always alongside the heat of the fireplace. While the breakfasts room transforms into a living room and game room. There is a new glassed-in gallery used as the summer living room, and at times a meeting hall for small company gatherings. Annexed apartments distributed on two floors along a corridor inherit their structure from the old stables. These have a more rustic build than bedrooms in the main house and featuring wooden floors and original lamps. Families often prefer the apartments because they have their own little gardens where the children can release all of their joviality. Sweetbreads, donuts and fried milk for breakfast. Delights and flirtation is this mansion of Asturias, born in 1877. If the night is clear, it’s a nice walk down to the restaurant El Pescador: dinners are not served at the house.

Hotel recommendations

This stunning house built in 1877 seduced the present-day owners with its typical indiano architectural style and contiguous gardens enlivened by camellias, magnolias, century-old oaks, araucaria and maple trees.

Located the beautiful marine town of Cudillero, the house maintains the essencial indiano style, only without the ornate atmosphere that characterized 19th-century mansions. The house is decorated in a colonial style that blends warm colors and printed upholstery of modern likings to achieve a homey atmosphere in each room.

Just a few months ago, the building was embellished with a glass gallery that now allows some rooms to enjoy a sitting room. The additions also incorporated a small meeting hall for company or professional gatherings.

The bedrooms are completely outfitted with elements of comfort, taking special care in all the little details.

In the living room the comfortable sofas invite guests to enjoy the natural light flooding in through the windows by day, and the crackling fireplace by night. In the sitting room there is a library with an assortment of current literature for quite afternoons, and a bar for meeting up with friends.

THE BREAKFASTS
The views of the landscape from the mansion inspires guests to explore the handsome environs, but not without first savoring the breakfast buffet with an assortment of sweet and savory goods. Among the carefully crafted meal includes delicious traditional torijas and donuts with anisette, fried milk and a variety of sweet breads. And if that doesn’t arouse interest, indulge in filled frixuelos with ricotta cheese and honey, a variety of cold cuts or freshly prepared eggs.

THE SURROUNINGS
Just outside the front door, a downhill path lined with pine trees leads to the seashore in the secluded port of Cudillero. The views while heading into town are exceptional.

Cudillero is surrounded by beautiful beaches, the Aguilar, Oleiros and Silencio, and impressive landscapes like the sea cliffs of Cabo Vidío, or area of special architectural interest such as the palatial buildings of Selgas.

Guests may also enjoy unforgettable moments hiking in the area, canoeing down the river, horseback riding, boating or a taking on stupendous fishing excursions.
