This place is not just a rural house; it embodies history and offers a unique experience.

It all started in the 19th century with the host's great-grandfather. His family owned a small workshop near the village where they produced floor and roof tiles, as well as wall bricks. They supplied construction materials to the citizens of Castillo de Bayuela, which eventually led to the creation of this charming place.

For 200 years, this place served as a tailor shop and home to local families. However, over time, it deteriorated significantly until Soraya and Miguel took care of it.

This place is the result of a lot of work and excitement. It was renovated using original materials to preserve its 200 years of history. A mix of original stones and baked clay bricks was used to maintain its essence and soul. It stands as a tribute to its ancestors.

This place embodies purity, nature, peace, and harmony.

About The Host
Soraya and Miguel

Soraya and Miguel

We are Soraya and Miguel, and we live here in Castillo de Bayuela with our dogs Hodor and Arya. We are neurodivergent individuals (for those who are not familiar with the concept, we have ADHD, ASD, and giftedness), which has made us feel "different" or "weird" throughout our lives. We are fighting every day for our dreams and to understand that happiness is not what is imposed on us by beliefs, but that happiness is different for each of us, and embarking on the journey to find it is more than just imagination; it's struggle, it's debate, it's doubt, and also fear.

Fight for your dreams, even if they are difficult, even if there are obstacles along the way... We are doing it, our dream is to live here, surrounded by nature and in the company of our animals.

  • We live nearby
