An old 18th Century country house which has been totally restored,
and where the rustic atmosphere lives in perfect harmony with the maximum comfort of modern day living.
The house has six large en-suite double rooms with central heating, overlooking the mountains and hamlet, a large dining room with a fireplace, TV lounge and reading room, a professional kitchen, where unique dishes are served, inspired by the traditional cuisine of the region. Any moment is perfect to share new experiences or ideas around a table, enjoy the gastronomic pleasures, the pages of a book in the peace and quiet of the reading room, or in front of the warm traditional log fireplace.
The rooms have been given the names of mythology and the traditional culture of the Alto Aragon.
The house was declared a SUPERIOR RATING by the Aragon Regional Government.
The Guara mountains and canyons Natural Park is one of the most important ornithological reserves in Spain, with a wide variety of species, such as: the Egyptian vulture or "Boleta" as it is known locally, the bearded vulture, the golden eagle, the wallcreeper and the eagle owl. Many of which are endangered species. The Guara Mountains and canyons are a favourite location for ornithologists and photographers from around the world..

Interesting Places
The first Aragon kings and their people, once had the dream of conquering the flat lands that would guarantee their crops and would open a passageway towards the Ebro Valley.. Thus, we find that the north of this region is drawn by a natural mountain border with fortresses, which lessen in number as the south is defeated.
Los Mallos de Riglos is a geological rock formation of enormous beauty and attraction to climbers. Aguero, at the foot of the Mallos, is an important organ museum.
The main attraction of Ayerbe is found in its 16th Century houses and palaces and in following the history of the nobleman Santiago Ramón y Cajal who lived here during his childhood.
In Loarre we can visit one of the best examples of medieval fortresses in Europe, in Bolea, we will be able to see how the cherry trees blossom, and if it not particularly the right time of year, the Gothic collegiate awaits us with its unique Tempera paintings. Once inside the Guara Mountains, we recommend that you visit the San Martín de la Val d'Onsera and the Salto del Roldán.

Vam passar el pont de Sant Joan a casa Oliban. Erem una colla de 8 persones incloent-hi dues nenes de 11 i 8 anys. Ens va impressionar la casa: tots els detalls summament cuidats, habitacions super acollidores, sala d´estar, menjador... tot decorat amb un gust exquisit. El tracta que vem rebre, immillorable. Varem celebrar la revetlla al voltant d´una taula parada amb tots els detalls, un sopar boníssim, amb coca i tot, regat amb un bon vi i un bon cava. Fins i tot, per no perdre les tradicions

Me recomendaron ir a Casa Olibán y me fuí al pueblo de Oliván.Sorpresa: allí no había ninguna casa con ese nombre. Está en el pueblo de Arbaniés, a unos 65 Km. nada menos.
Bueno, pues una vez
localizado fuimos recibidos por unas excelentes personas
(Nati, Marta y Manuel) que nos "colocaron" en la zona rápidamente. Puedo decir que nos alegramos del error ya que vimos sitios muy interesentes de la sierra de Guara dirigidos por estos verdaderos amantes de la Naturaleza que nos enseñaron rincones
