Traditionally, however, the core estate has been known, perhaps for hundreds of years, as La Torre (The Tower). Local tradition as well as historical references indicate that a tower rose in the area. Evidence has been found of Roman dwellings and other structures in the immediate areas surrounding the property, hence the origins of the name of the hamlet. It is most likely that the ancient tower is still standing in its original location, albeit camouflaged by the passing of time and the hand of man.The main house traces its origin way back in time. The restoration work undertaken in 2004 clearly revealed the original part of the building: a square tower with architectural components, both in style and materials, consistent with those commonly used already in the XV and XVI centuries. The original structure was expanded to its present shape and size during the XIX century. The walls, up to 67cm (26”) thick, are built with stone from ancient local quarries, and most wooden elements -such as main load beams- are made of heavy hewn chestnut logs. Locally abundant chestnut was used throughout the house on doors, windows and floors. (All double-glass thermal-insulation windows installed during the renovation are solid chestnut.)The cottage, also built of stone, was originally a barn, later used as storage and garage. Finally, it was reincarnated as the present guest house.FurnitureThe kitchens, baths and all mechanical infrastructures are built entirely new using the highest quality materials and furnishings, designed to provide all the comfort and style expected in XXI century living. The furniture, decorations, tools and utensils displayed throughout are evocative of the atmosphere you would expect to find in a prosperous old rural family home, featuring valuable antiques of diverse origins: many from Asturias and other Spanish regions, as well as English, Continental and American. Some pieces date back to the XVIII century ranging to the more recent ones from the first third of the XX century. The art collection includes pieces by contemporary American and European artists as well as some very old pieces of uncertain date.The estate and surroundingsImmediately around the main house and guest cottage there are extensive garden areas boasting numerous fragrant and colorful roses, as well as many varied flowering trees and bushes that fill the air with many colors and aromas throughout the four seasons. Also to be noted are numerous plantings
