This exquisite 19th-century country house in Amandi village, 1.5km south of Villaviciosa, oozes character. The wonderfully comfy rooms are endowed with antique furnishings, plenty of pillows, well-equipped bathrooms and original chestnut floors. Common areas are spacious and relaxing, especially the beautiful garden with centenarian wisteria and sequoia. There are weekly Pilates and yoga classes too.
Also here is the excellent restaurant Pušáki, concocting highly original, internationally inspired creations from locally sourced, organic ingredients for its weekly six-course menú. They do dinner for hotel guests (€39 including drinks) Tuesday to Saturday, as well as lunches open to all, and the hotel's breakfasts. Book lunch or dinner at least 24 hours ahead.
