Perfect Family Vacation House

Everyone in my group of 7 had nothing but wonderful things to say about our stay. Very spacious, comfortable beds, showers, and the property grounds were gorgeous. We met with the owner who was very kind and referred us to a local baker who delivered some treats to us as we celebrated a birthday. If we could go back and spend a few more days we would have! Highly recommend if anyone plans to visit Santiago de Compostela.

Awesome stay!!

We can’t be more pleased with our stay and this property. Juan, the owner, was so helpful and friendly. The house had everything we needed, it was very clean and comfortable. Each bedroom has a bathroom, it was perfect for our group of 4 couples. The owner welcomed us to the house and explained everything and gave us recommendations. He gave us the neighbor’s phone number, who is a baker, so we could order pastries and breakfast. The baker was a hit!! He was so generous and his products were delicious and delivered everything to the house at no extra charge. If we ever come back, we would definitely stay at Casa Rio Salerno :-)

An excellent holiday house.!!

The house is spacious , well equipped and well appointed. We were only 4 , but there was ample crockery etc etc for the house’s full complement of visitors. Whilst walkable into the city, the walk is unattractive, but the no 4 Bus stop is right outside and we managed perfectly with buses and inexpensive taxis , and then on the excellent railway system out from Santiago. Special thanks to Juan who was a perfect host in every respect , and even , very kindly , took us to the nearest supermarket for our first arrival shop !! Thank you Juan from Bill, Lin, Gill , Gordon.

Amazing home

We spent 3 days and nights at Juan’s cottage which is a beautifully decorated old mill house, complete with a waterway funneling into a creek on the property. The home is comfortable and more than adequately supplied with kitchen, bathroom and bedroom accessories. The bedrooms are spacious and all have an en-suite bathroom. The surrounding grounds are magnificent and inviting. Casa Serala is a short 10 minute drive to the old town of Santiago de Compostela and a five minute drive to a well stocked grocery store. We can’t say enough good things about our host, Juan. He was kind, informative, thoughtful and readily available. We could have easily spent two weeks at this remarkable home and would have enjoyed every minute.

Hemos pasado la Semana Santa un grupo de 6 adultos y 3 niñas y nos ha encantado la casa. El entorno es espectacular, con una parcela enorme al lado del río, con barbacoa cubierta y en un entorno de lo más tranquilo, no se oía nada. El descanso ha sido de 10, con unos colchones más que cómodos. La casa es preciosa y está equipada con todo tipo de menaje. Las habitaciones espaciosas y cada una con su propio cuarto de baño. Juan es un auténtico encanto, en todo momento ha estado pendiente de si necesitábamos algo, nos recomendó sitios que visitar y donde comer. De detalle de bienvenida dejan una cesta llena de fruta, riquísima Una pena que el tiempo no acompañara, porque nos habría encantado poder disfrutar de ese jardín con columpios, tumbonas y mesa al lado del río. Una casa de lo más recomendable.

CASA EXCELENTE, MUY CERCA DE SANTIAGO. RECOMENDABLE

Casa entera con 4 habitaciones y 4 baños + 1 aseo, salón, cocina con comedor completa y cómoda. No falta de nada. Todo muy limpio, jardín grande y bien cuidado. Casa muy bonita con molino, alguna habitación está dentro del molino de paredes gruesas. La reforma y decoración de aplaudir. Muy cómodos, con todo lo necesario, se duerme bien sin ruidos; estás a 3 kilómetros de Santiago y la Catedral. El dueño Juan, te explica todo bien, y se preocupa de tí; recomienda sitios para comer (y acierta). Independientemente de ser un negocio, se le ve ilusión y ganas de agradar. Nos dejó plátanos (las niñas comieron los 4 días) y manzanas propias. Otro día nos trajo una bolsa de manzanas caseras sin tratar, muy ricas. Hemos estado en los puentes en varias casas rurales por la zona de Asturias o Navarrra. Sin duda está ha sido la mejor, es un pena no haber estado más en casa, pero no daba tiempo. Para mi mujer era un viaje especial, y está feliz. Gracias Juan, lo recomendamos y si volvemos por esa zona te llamaremos.

Una casa estupenda si viajas a Galicia.

La casa es un antiguo molino restaurado con muy buen gusto. Sigue pasando el río por debajo pero no se escucha cuando duermes por lo que se descansa fenomenal. La finca es muy grande y está muy bien cuidada. La relación con el propietario estupenda, es una persona muy amable y dispuesta siempre para que te sientas cómodo. Si viajáis a Santiago es una opción genial porque está a un tiro de piedra y si queréis una casa que os permita visitar muchos lugares de Galicia también es una opción fenomenal porque está a una distancia asequible de cualquier punto. Os la recomiendo 100%.

Olá, Passei dois dias nesta casa na semana passada e encontrei uma casa de elevada qualidade. Aquecimento central em toda a casa o que dá um conforto muito grande, O proprietário é uma pessoa muito prestável e simpática. Aconselho a quem quer visitar Santiago, a estrada de acesso à casa liga directamente com a zona histórica da cidade, em cerca de 8 min. Tem quatro quartos muito bons e confortáveis.

MAGNIFICA ESTANCIA

estuvimos el fin de semana pasado (23-25 de octubre/15), recomiendo la casa a todo el mundo por muchos motivos: La casa es una pasada, todo muy limpio e impecable. La cocina muy amplia para comer y hacer una buena sobremesa por la amplitud de su mesa. El salón muy acogedor con una buena televisión de plasma.Las habitaciones amplias, cómodas porque ademas tiene su propio cuarto de baño y muy limpias. Aparcamiento amplio para dejar los coche. El trato con el propietario un 10. Ademas tuvo algún que otro detalle con nosotros, que se agradece (secador, gel y champo en todos los baños, fruta en la cocina, .....) La finca es enorme, con columpios para los niños, los niños la gozaron, corrieron y jugaron con total libertad. Los adultos también la gozamos porque que tiene una barbacoa grande y cubierta para pasar un buen rato haciendo un churrasco. La situación inmejorable, cerca de Santiago, para hacer una excursión a la catedral. En fin, que se la recomiendo a todo el mundo.

Para repetir

La casa y todo lo que hay en ella está impecable, limpio, muy cuidado. Es una casa puesta con mucho gusto, al detalle. Es muy espaciosa, algo muy interesante cuando va mucha gente. No sólo los espacios comunes (cocina-comedor, jardín,..), sino las propias habitaciones. Muy importante el baño en cada habitación y la habitación accesible sin ningún escalón desde la propia entrada. También destacable la atención y amabilidad del dueño de la casa, siempre disponible. Muy cerca del centro de Santiago, pero con la buena sensación de estar completamente alejado de la ciudad. Para repetir.
