Castrillon accommodation from NZ$87

We stayed here in Piarnu for 13 nights in early September. La cabańa is up a narrow lane leading to a small orchard/car parking area. The accommodation is SMALL but given it is for 2 people that is to be expected. The bedroom has plenty of room for storage and the bed itself is comfortable. The shower room is large and there was always plenty of hot water. The kitchen/dining area is tight for two people working together and the stove top is small. If there is a disappointment it is the small seating area, we found the sofa to be a bit small. However the outside space was sunny most of the day so the indoor space was little used. This is a traditional build with associated dark wood throughout including the shutters so the house is DARK. However, given the temperature this was welcome to keep the house relatively cool through the day. The location is vey HANDY for several excellent beaches nearby (Salinas, El Sablon, San Juan). Avilès, Oviedo and Gijon are easily reached too. Heading inland there are waterfalls and Salas is worth a visit on the Camino de Santiago pilgrimage. Ramon, our host, was very helpful and around if/when we needed anything. He also spent some time with us and a map pointing out places worth visiting. In terms of local restaurants we found the Casa Nemesia more welcoming than the (nearer) Casa Nueva. No hesitation in recommending this as a base to explore what Asturias has to offer.

Very friendly staff throughout the hotel.
