EL LAUREL house is part of the Ecored network and implements a number of policies to increase both accommodation and environment qualities. House situated in Garajonay National Park, within the village of El Cedro. Very peaceful and ideal for nature lovers and walkers.
This house, together with Era and Castaños, were originally the home of Mr Medina, who lived all his long life here and who was locally nicknamed. The Patriarch¨of El Cedro.The house has thick stone walls and has been renovated using materials such as wood and tiles, thus retaining a rustic style. Farming is the main occupation of the people here and this is evident in the environment outside. The surrounding area is a wonderful mixture of beautiful landscape, agriculture and natural vegetation of the Park.

This house is reached by foot (approx.. 15 minutes) along the walking path that links the Peak of Garajonay, the highest point of the island at 1487 metres, with the valley of Hermigua. Here, nature has been left untouched by man and modern development and visiters can enjoy here one of the finest examples of the forest of Lauresilva. We particularly recommend these places of interest: Casa Prudencia, and the church of Nuestra Sra de Lourdes.

Es una casa estupenda. La fotografía no le hace justicia. Estuvimos una semana y fue muy buena experiencia. Sacamos miles de fotografías, porque el entorno era increíble. Desde la casa hacíamos excursiones todos los días, a Los Aceviños, al Alto de Garajonay, a Hermigua... Es un sitio donde te puedes imaginar cómo se vivía antes en las islas.
