Palencia holiday rentals

Our stay in Cristina’s guest house was everything we had imagined and more! The house itself was fully equipped with all life’s essentials, a book shelf with every classic known to man, lots of space (excellent for families with kids) and the pool was picture perfect. Cristina was a wonderful host, so kind and caring, she showed us around her home which was an incredibly intimate walk through time, we were absolutely mesmerised by the art and furniture from her ancestors which she so incredibly maintains and restores. She even gave us her home made tomato chutney and honey which was so delicious. Our children loved saying their daily “Holas” to the chickens, donkey and dogs that live on the property. We even managed to squeeze in some day trips to Bilbao and to La Rioja for some wine tasting in the Basque region. For anyone that would like to stay in a tucked away cottage surrounded by fields of gold and yellow (so many incredible sunflowers growing like patchwork’s on a quilt) to rest in the calm and quiet of a small town (though Palencia is not far away for some shopping and wandering) this is the perfect getaway. I can’t recommend this place enough. Thank you Cristina for everything. X
