Rural house Pierra. 5 reasons to stay there.

TOP ACTIVIDADES

Book the rural house Pierra and enjoy a home in which to stay during your trip to the villages of the Navarrese Pyrenees.

 

This independent house located in the town center of the municipality of Otsababia is surrounded by cobbled streets, stone houses and medieval bridges, scenarios of any medieval film. The rural house Pierra is completely renovated, leaving the stone and wood present throughout its 3 floors. The upper and lower floors concentrate most of the rooms, saving the middle floor for common rooms such as the kitchen and living room. Although it can accommodate up to 10 people, the maximum number of guests we recommend is 9. It can be rented as a whole or by rooms, we decided to opt for the full rental, a very wise decision!

The house has an esplanade in the front that allows parking up to 4 cars approximately, a luxury parking totally free.

Likewise, from the same rural house Pierra we can enjoy the panoramic views of the Sierra de Abodi although if you prefer walking, less than 50 meters from the rural house Pierra begins the hiking route of the virgin of Muskilda, a route that was recommended to us during our stay in Otsagabia that shows us the beauty of the oaks, chestnut and beech trees of this Pyrenean environment.

As argumentation to this statement we can indicate that:

  • During our stay he visited us on several occasions, taking care of us and helping us to make our next day’s plans.
  • He made it easy for us to pay for the guesthouse by making an initial transfer and paying the rest when we left.
  • When the WIFI coverage did not work properly (due to the weather) he tried to solve it with the means at his disposal.

Comfort: The structure and design of the house allows us to enjoy the most cheerful moments of the day in a group but maintaining the independence between the first and third floor, thus creating some privacy for guests on both floors. The powerful heating helped us to maintain a very good temperature inside the house even when outside it was around 0 degrees and snowing.

The only drawback we found to the house is that it is not enabled for access for people with reduced mobility, although realistically it is difficult to recondition a typical house of the Navarrese Pyrenees, due to its structure and location.

The rural house Pierra helped us to create some memories that we will hardly forget of the villages of the Navarre Pyrenees, a house 100% recommended to which we do not hesitate to recognize its value through our exclusive accreditation “TurismoVasco Tiketa”.
