Casa Rural La Riba

Quietness Landscape Close to Cangas, Covadonga Organization Coziness Friendliness and assisting in everything we needed Fully equipped

Felix was absolutely superb assisting us in the very few things that we didn't know how to handle: TV set and TDT remotes WiFi password Just one minor thing: if you like strong shower, avoid pointing to the shower door, lest some water may leak and flood slightly the bathroom floor (nothing critical, just some work to collect the water)

Location, beauty, care, hosts. Thank you Felix and Sara for all the attention!

Nothing, it was a long stay and all went well with 3 kids!!

The size and ambience.

Shower could be more convenient

Amazing views. The apartment is Clean and comfortable with washing machine, hob (no oven) and enough crockery and cutlery. The bedroom and bathroom are large and airy, very comfortable beds. The villagers is on a hill so be ready for slopes. We parked our motorbikes by the gate which is fairly flat and we could have parked them in the garden but didn’t feel the need. There are some flatter spaces nearby too. You need to go to the bar/restaurant Chili to check in so go straight there first. They also have a small shop with basics and do very nice food all day, breakfast onwards. It’s only one minute walk from the apartments.

We were in apartment 2; You do hear some noise from the other apartments but we didn’t find it intrusive. The Wi-Fi didn’t work in our apartment (but we didn’t need it to)

Beautiful village, collect the key for the apartment from chilli bar who will show you to your apartment. There are a few apartments, we were in number 4 which unfortunately did not have the spectacular views of the mountains across, well only from the bedroom and bathroom windows. A small outside yard with patio furniture. The owners were very welcoming and showed where we could park our motorcycle within the garden. Lovely food at bar chilli, great stay and brilliant riding all on the doorstep

Absolutely nothing.

Second time staying here. Last time we got home and immediately starting planning when we could come back. It's perfection. We stayed in La Riba A - the red house. Sitting in the little garden at the metal table, looking out over this impossible view of near vertical slopes opposite, listening to the river tumbling far below, picking out intrepid goats navigating the crags across the valley, listening for the distant tinkle of their bells, eating local ham and tomato salads, watching for vultures or eagles circling the peaks, swifts screaming past as they play on the breeze, stars coming out as the twilight arrives and the lights of the next village, snuggled in the crook of the hills, flickering on. The view from the little garden, and from the main bedroom, are actual paradise. It's even lovely when it rains because there's a lip around the house you can sit under and listen to the rain like it's a meditation soundtrack. If you get a thunderstorm, it's epic. This is one of those places that is so good, there's a part of me that would rather not tell people about it so I could keep it all for myself, but I've told you now, so you should go. I'd buy this house if I could.

One of my favourite places I've ever stayed, so almost nothing I'd change. The kitchen is not that well stocked - could do with a couple of deeper cereal bowls, another serving bowl, a chopping board, bread board, sharper knife. There are no condiments/oil: bring everything - but the owners have a little shop with essentials, so don't worry if you've forgotten anything. Supermarkets in Cangas and Arriondas. Bakery in the next village on the main road down below. There's a lovely big mokka pot.
