Las Casonas d'Avellaneda

Las Casonas d'Avellaneda is a rural hotel in the Eo-Naviega region of western Asturias, sitting between the Cantabrian coast and the foothills of the Asturian mountains. The area takes its name from the Eo and Navia rivers that define its eastern and western boundaries, and it has a distinct cultural identity shaped by centuries of fishing, farming, and transit along the old coastal routes.

The hotel occupies a traditional Asturian stone building, and its interior reflects a deliberate mix of local rustic character and furniture and decorative objects collected from various parts of the world. The rooms are spacious and the atmosphere is unhurried, which makes it a practical and comfortable base for walkers who need genuine rest rather than just a bed.

For pilgrims on the Camino del Norte, the Northern Way to Santiago de Compostela, this stretch of Asturias is one of the quieter and more scenic sections of the route. The Eo-Naviega region is known for its well-preserved Romanesque architecture, traditional hórreos (raised granaries), and a food culture built around seafood from the nearby Cantabrian coast and hearty inland dishes. The town of Navia itself sits at the mouth of the Navia River and has been a settlement of some significance since pre-Roman times, with castro ruins nearby at Coaña that rank among the best-preserved Iron Age sites in northern Spain.
