Perfect for Sea Lovers...Steps from the Beach

Asturias airport 10 minutes away. Nevertheless, planes are not heard nor seen from the house.

Stand-alone stone house in a 2,000 sq.m. fully enclosed property situated in a quiet and nature-sorrounded 3-property cul-de-sac 25 meters above Arnao beach (Castrillón municipality) and very close to Salinas beach. The city of Avilés is 7 kms away and it takes half an hour to get either to Oviedo or to Gijón. There are big supermarkets and grocery shops1 mile from the house.

The property was originally built in the mid nineteenth century but has been recently fully restored and it is 80 meters from the beach. The property has 30 windows and 5 picture windows and no windowless rooms. It can confortabily accommodate 8 adults and a baby in a cot. Weekly housekeeping included.
Not recommended for lower-limb disable persons. Beach towels included. Free unlimited and powerful Internet (150-300 Mbps), ideal for teleworking, and a 43" Smart TV.

This property is on a spectacular seacliff with 4 terraces facing the sea. The first terrace has direct access to the street, a nice garden, the main house, an additional lodge, and two places particularly panoramic: a viewpoint facing east and another one facing north which has a large table, ideal for outdoor meals. The second terrace has another garden and the sauna house. The third one is the largest garden in the property with 4 sunbeds and a corner bench for 4-6 persons facing north and with great views. Finally, the forth terrace is a bit wilder and has two comfortable deck chairs. Probably this is the most special place in the whole property. Right above there is a gate to access the highest part of the Northern Trail, a lane with breathtaking views.

Garden only wooden furniture: 4 sunbeds, 1 large table, 4 low tables, 3 benches, 3 armchairs and 10 folding chairs. There is an outdoor shower, 10 outdoor lamps and a BBQ. Coal and firing tablets provided.

Children. When necessary we place a safety gate on top of the stairs and we block 4 lower windows upstairs -there are still 7 windows left. We offer special mattresses' covers for small children, a well-equipped cot and a high chair free of charge.

Colder weather and stronger winds in winter are not a problem as the house is perfectly isolated and desired temperature can be set in each room.

Languages. The house manager speaks Spanish, English, German and French.

Library: 200+ books in Spanish, English, German, French and Italian.

Arnao beach -downstairs from the house- is very popular among surfers and more so Salinas beach only 2 kms away. We would highlight the nearby Arnao beach to Bayas beach sea trail as being one the most beautiful in Asturias, and the Arnao beach coral fossil reef as one of the best areas in the world to enjoy sea wildlife from the Devonian period (420-360 million years ago).

14 beaches in Asturias have been awarded a Blue Flag by the Foundation for Environmental Education (FEE) and Arnao beach is one of them. The Blue Flag eco-label is a certification that a beach meets its 29 stringent standards. These include standards for quality, safety, environmental education and information, the provision of services and general environmental management criteria.

Beautiful stone villa by the sea
Julio’s home is perfect! The location is private, and the views are stunning! The beach is steps away, and the home backs to the costera norte! The home itself is lovely. Immaculate and tastefully decorated. The home is fully equipped with WiFi, and a smart TV( although why watch TV when you can watch the waves?) The kitchen is well equipped, and the bedrooms and bathrooms are clean and comfortable. Julio and his house manager, Carmen are wonderful hosts; attentive, and kind, always ready to answer a question or give a recommendation for a great restaurant. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this lovely vacation home!

Stunning Vistas inside and out
This home delivers everything that is promised on line and more. Julio was a wonderful host who communicated directly and offered so many options for things to do in the area. The vistas from the home are magical, especially when viewing a thunderstorm through the picture window in the living room. The caretaker, Carmen, met us to show us everything and helped me out when I left a bracelet in the home after locking the home. She is extremely kind. I would love to return sometime to beautiful Arnao Playa!

We loved it here
We stayed here for a week at the start of our tour of Northern Spain. A really nice house sat overlooking the sea with a 5 minute walk down to the beach. We made ourselves right at home here and spent many hours sitting admiring the fantastic views. The house is very conformtable and is well equipped and we would have no hesition in recommending to others,

¿LA MEJOR CASA DE ASTURIAS?
Por su ubicación, situación y, sobre todo, por sus increíbles vistas; por su construcción y decoración; y por su limpieza y la atención recibida, personalmente, estoy convencido que sí.

A beautiful property!
Julio's house is amazing. Located near the towns of Salinas and Piedras Blancas, the views from the house across the ocean are spectacular. To sit upstairs and look out at the waves crashing upon the rocks beneath is an awesome experience. There are 3 bedrooms in the main house, with 2-1/2 baths. There is another smaller house as well that will house additional people, also equipped with a bath. The property is conveniently located along the Senda Norte, a well marked hiking trail. The house was extremely clean and well equipped, and upon our arrival we were met by Carmen, a charming woman who showed us how everything worked. Overall, it was a fantastic experience and hopefully will be repeated!

Ein wunderschönes Haus mit einmaliger Aussicht
Das Haus und Grundstück sind einmalig. Zum einen ist es die tolle Lage mit paradiesischen Aussichten. Man ist von Natur und Meer umgeben. Zum Strand ist es nur ein Katzensprung. Vom Grundstück kommt man direkt auf einen schönen Wanderweg. Zum Anderen, ist das Haus super gut ausgestattet. Es hat absolut an nichts gefehlt. Das Haus selbst ist mit viel Liebe zum Detail renoviert und ist mit seinen großen Fenstern, aus denen man direkt aufs Meer schauen kann, etwas Einmaliges. Unser Gastgeber Julio war super hilfreich bei allen Tipps und immer erreichbar. Bei Ankunft haben auf uns Wein, Brot und Käse gewartet. Und zu unserem Hochzeitstag, den wir im Haus gefeiert haben, schenkte Julio uns sogar eine Flasche Sekt. Die Schlüsselübergabe war absolut problemlos. Die Managerin Carmen war außerordentlich nett und hilfreich. Sie war auch jederzeit sofort erreichbar. Wir haben unseren Urlaub im Haus sehr genossen und können es uneingeschränkt weiter empfehlen.
