WE DO NOT WANT TO BE INTO YOUR HEART, WE WANT TO STAY FOR A LONG TIME IN YOUR HEART WHEN YOU COME.
We are going to start together in the white house, built in 1947, who was the guard´s home and his family. We are also close to the old fort which was, time ago, occupied by some romans or even people from far away… After a brief meeting to explain the walk and the thing we are going to see the remains of the roman house Mediterranean’s style that appear when we dag to start the edification of the hotel. The settling take us to another time with a lot of charm, the archeological remains that are prove of that are in a safe place in the museum of Leon.
The fruit garden forest
We are going to go up through the fruit garden forest where there are pears, apples, khakis, peachs and saturn peachs strawberries flavoured. The smell to fresh candies keep into our pituitary glands and, under our feet, the grass is formed a green carpet, that invite us to inhale and keeping into our lung the raw oxygen entracing us throughout all the walk to an extent which creates a passing addiction (come back will be the antidote).
The stillness
We will follow the route throughout the path of the farm, where the free range hens are rowdy expecting to us to collect their fruits for the dinner (they are a huge eggs, with two yolks inside, organic and you can notice that).
But, this is not the moment… We should follow the central path route, direction to the 1.200 young olive trees, that with only five years of age are able to offer us 500 liters of the best pure olive oil "AOVE". this is, based on the test we've made, one of the purest and with the most quality.
Old fort from the Bierzo
As time passes, it seems like we just started the journey; and we are already one step far from the great old fort from the Bierzo, by the way, one of the largest in Spain, and which still do not know what treasures are hidden in his gusts. What seems certain is that we are stepping on a land full of stories about luxurious jewelry made from pure gold, extracted from the famous Médulas, already heritage of humanity, and hewed for the nobles who lived in one of its buildings.

It is time to restock on energy…
From the top of the fort the views are impressive: there is no doubt. We could stay there all day, his beauty doesn´t have comparation… Within this context of relaxation, in peace, and sitting under the century old oak trees, the time to open the wicker baskets has come: freshly baked goods, serrano ham, Oro de Bierzo olive oil (our label); a bottle of mencía, crianza and blue vichy squares napkins. Off course, and for dessert, smiley cookies filled with chocolate: Fun is guaranteed. Because we deserve it, let´s go toast, with organic mencia wine about the healt of human beings that live on our planet today and also because we will always enjoy among the good people, the best moments that life will bring to us and and those still left to come...”.
