Hotel Casona D'Alevia (Peñamellera Baja, Spain)

Hotel Casona D'Alevia is a charming boutique-style hotel set at the edge of the Picos de Europa National Park, providing guests with an ideal base from which to explore the mountainous terrain of Asturias. The nine spacious and individually decorated rooms, some with wood-beamed ceilings, feature modern amenities like plush beds with pure wool blankets, beautiful wooden floors, and comfy armchairs. A comfortable lounge, once an old stable, is open for shared use, where guests can cosy up to the fireplace in winter, and enjoy classic piano and flute music in summer. Outdoor leisure activities such as hiking and biking are aplenty. A healthy breakfast full of homemade jams and local cheeses is served in the morning. Guests can also savour freshly squeezed fruit juices and an array of cold meats and hot dishes. It's about a 25-minute drive to Hermida Gorge from Hotel Casona D'Alevia, where travellers can soak up some of the most amazing sights of the valley from the viewpoint.
