Living museum experience!

Room with private external bathroom in this historic home that was like a living museum. Excellent value for money. Large, spacious with everything we needed for a good overnight stay. We feel privileged to have been able to stay here. We were also able to make use of a washing machine in the basement. Walking the Camino Torres this was an added advantage to our trip. We left very early the next morning, so could not make use of the well located cafe across the road for breakfast, but could use the house's kitchen to prepare breakfast. The house was a bit musty smelling given the age, but not problematic. The bedroom had a slippery carpet. We accidentally locked ourselves out of our bathroom (mentioning as a caution to guests).
