Views of the Picos de Europa in a house designed for all seasons

Our prices include discounts for stays of 7 nights or more, outside high season.

Situated on a sunny crest, Pulieru has incredible views of the snow capped Picos de Europa mountains, with underfloor heating and a log burner.

You'll be surrounded by nature and rolling hills, in an ideal location for visiting the mountains or the rugged Asturian coastline. After a day exploring you can retreat to your warm and cozy home, renovated in 2021 to a modern standard with efficient aerothermal under-floor heating, modern glazing and a wood burning stove. From your toasty vantage point you'll be able to watch the changing landscapes through the enormous windows of the lounge, kitchen/diner or covered balcony on the upper floor, the balcony is perfect for an alfresco breakfast.

The lounge has books, games and good WIFI to enjoy Netflix and Spotify on the smart TV and bluetooth speaker, so you can really feel at home. There is also a fully equipped kitchen with low energy appliances (oven, induction hob, microwave, dishwasher, fridge, freezer and washing machine).

The local market town of Cangas de Onís is only 15 mins away, with all the amenities you need for great stay.

Pulieru is ideal for 2-6 people, with flexibility for couples, families or friends. Two ensuite bedrooms are located downstairs, one in the house, and one in the adjoining former barn, each has the option of one super-king-sized bed (180 x 200cm) or 2 single beds (90 x 200cm). The large lounge has a real fold-down king-sized bed (160 x 200m), not a sofa-bed, and it’s own shower-room.

The private terrace in front of the house, with bbq and outside kitchen is a great spot to watch the sun go down, accompanied by the gentle jangle of Asturian cow bells (and possibly a gin and tonic).

Family items such as a travel cot, high chair, stair gate and baby bath are also available if required.

The house is totally self-contained, not connected to other buildings and is solely for the use of one group of guests at a time. It is part of a traditional farm that also has a beautiful original barn, a small workshop and another restored barn 50 metres away from the main house, where we live, we’re the owners - Ben and Jen! The buildings sit on 2.5 hectares of pasture and woodland which you're welcome to explore. During the renovation it was important to us to retain traditional features. For this reason you’ll find a blend of old and new, for instance modern grey windows alongside rustic wooden pillars on the balcony and chestnut joists that have been repurposed as furniture. Access to the farm is via a 200 meter gravel track - good for standard cars, but sporty cars with low ground clearance will need to take extra care.

The local area is begging to be explored by foot, car, motorbike, mountain bike or road bike. Local highlights include the Lakes of Covadonga and surrounding routes in the Picos de Europa National Park, the Basilica of Covadonga, the peak of Monfrechu (which you can walk to directly from Pulieru), Cangas de Onís with its Roman bridge and Sunday market, the Fitu Viewpoint, the Ruta del Cares, Bulnes, Sotres and Ponga Natural Park, and that’s just the mountain area! Don’t forget the rugged Northern coastline with gorgeous beaches such as Playa del Cuevas, Playa de Vega, Playa Torimba, Playa de Po, the inland beach of Playa Gulpyuri and the fishing towns of Ribadasella and Llanes.

Lots of activities are also possible, such as nature tours, bird watching, wild swimming, kayaking, canyoning, rafting, surfing and paddle boarding. There are also some great restaurants waiting for a visit.

We’re super excited for what you’ll discover and would be happy to offer any help or advice you need to make the most of your stay. If you'd like more information about Pulieru or the local area please get in touch.

The Perfect Retreat
Not only are the accommodations picture-perfect, but the setting truly feels unreal. From the melodic cowbells in the background to the stunning vistas that seem to go on forever, this is the perfect retreat.

Paraiso
As someone wrote in the guestbook, from now on every vacation home will be rated in relation to this wonderful home. Is it as good as Pulieru? will be asked at every future place we visit and I can well imagine that very few will measure up. The pictures on line are as accurate as pictures can be, but they don’t nearly do the house or the jaw dropping scenery justice. It is a spectacular location with a house that has recently been renovated with everything you could possible need for a vacation. And then there are Jen and Ben, the hosts, who are two of the nicest people you will ever meet who have outfitted the house with every comfort and with a magic cupboard that they have filled with everything you could possibly need for meals and snacks should you be too tired to drive down the crazy, steep, windy, one lane road to get to the nearest store. (You do have to pay for these things, but seriously you would be happy to pay more just for the marvelous convenience of it. ) if I could award Pulieru 10 stars I would. Some day I will be back because I fear I have left my heart in the mountains of Asturias.

If only VRBO did 6*....
this property would be one of them! We loved our stay in the contemporary architect-designed rural property with its stunning views of the Picos. "Ben y Jen" provided detailed local information including a selection of curated walks, some of which could be completed from the property. A welcome pack, house Netflix subscription and complimentary BBQ coals etc were just some of the little additional touches which made this property the best VRBO property we have stayed in. Thoroughly recommend!

Highly recommended
A beautiful home in a spectacular setting, with incredibly attractive views. Pulieru feels a very special place to be. The property is very comfortable, clean, exceptionally well equipped, good Wifi, Netflix and with many other thoughtful elements which added to the enjoyment of our family’s stay. Everything worked. The pizza dinner was delicious. A pleasure to meet the hosts Ben and Jen whose communication prior to arrival, and welcome and advice about the local area was excellent - there are lots of possibilities to make a lovely holiday here. Overall, memorable and captivating.

Stunning property
Cannot fault this property and would definitely recommend it - it is finished to a very high standard and in an ideal location to explore the Picos. The owners were exceedingly helpful, giving us plenty of local information, all of which helped us have a fantastic week.

One of the best ever
Pulieru is probably one of the best self catering holiday homes we have ever stayed in. Ben & Jen’s attention to detail in both design and as hosts is second to none and really does take the stress out of a holiday. The pizza suspect available on arrival and the honesty cupboard for supplies is fantastic and so well thought out. No one would regret staying in this stunning pasty of the world, enjoying a glass of wine on the balcony looking at the majesty of the Picos de Europa.

Incredible house in a stunning location
Everything about this house exceeded our expectations, from the stunning location with amazing views and tranquility to the ever available but unobtrusive hosting from Ben & Jen. Pulieru is a recent conversion that has been purposefully designed for comfort and to maximise the views. Lovely big comfortable beds, great showers and big, well equipped kitchen / diner. The house is surrounded by great views, especially the BBQ terrace. A great base for us to cycle to the sea or lovely mountain restaurants and bars. The market town of Cangas is only 5 miles away and can be reached via easy descent, uphill return on the bike. We only went out in our car once as a rest day. A walk to El Molin de Mingo restaurant is a must. If you love outdoors, walking, cycling, cows and nature I can’t recommend this place enough.

Wonderful house in an area of outstanding natural beauty.
The property is very beautiful and comfortable mixing contemporary design with original features in sympathy with the characteristics of traditional housing in rural Asturias. The views of the Picos de Europa from the main dining room and kitchen are exceptional and unlikely to be found in other houses. We have never found a holiday home to be so immaculately claen on arrival as this one! Ben and Jen are very kind, friendly and helpful. They provide a fantastic welcome pack of freshly baked bread, muffins and milk as well as a delicious bottle of wine. We loved the 'honesty' shop in the kitchen larder. It meant we had breakfast every day of our short stay without having to go to the shops. We highly recommend a visit to this beautiful place.

Blissful…
We stayed at Pulieru for 2 weeks. The house is a stunning conversion in one of the loveliest spots we’ve ever stayed. Watching the moon rise over the Picos from the balcony was unforgettable. The interior of the house is immaculately done - even nicer in real life than the photos - with a quality equipped kitchen, really comfy beds and flawless wifi. The setting is very rural with only the sounds of cowbells and birdsong. Ben and Jen were lovely hosts, allowing us to share their vegetable patch and making spot on recommendations for trips including the best swimming spot we’ve ever been to. I’d strongly recommend Pulieru for anyone wanting a rural retreat with incredible views, gorgeous interior spaces and lovely hosts, in a region of Spain which is friendly, interesting and beautiful.
