The apartments are situated in a mid 19th Century Asturias country house and are noteworthy for their comfortable, exquisite decorations and for the magnificent surroundings.
Casa Escandina is located in Cornellana, in the central-western area of Asturias, on the banks of the River Narcea. This is the ideal opportunity to relax and enjoy all kinds of activities: culture, sports, ethnography, etc.. making these apartments the perfect choice.
La Casona de Escandina has recently been awarded the classification of Three Keys, presented by the Asturias Tourist Board.

Hemos estado una semana en el apartamento Muniellos, la casa es una preciosidad, y esta restaurada y decorada con muy buen gusto, el apartamento es precioso y completo. La restauración es digna de resaltar, la entrada y el distribuidor de la escalera conjuga la arquitectura tradicional y muebles antiguos con cuadros y elementos decorativos modernos en armónica composición. Está muy bien situada muy cerca de la playa y de Oviedo así como cerca del parque natural de Somiedo- una autentica preciosi

Hemos pasado una semana en el apartamento Tio Pepe y la verdad es que es precioso, la casa esta restaurada con mucho gusto y la situación de la misma te permite conocer gran parte de Asturias.No puedo dejar de comentar que la carretera pasa justo por la puerta y el ruido puede llegar a ser molesto para el que no este acostumbrado.Nos contó Jose Manuel,que es encantador, que en breve la carretera no tendrá mucho tráfico porque estan terminando una autovía, asi que será todavia un lujo mayor el po

Esta casa es la tercera que he conocido en Asturias - todas muy buenas. Pero esta casa se destaca por su ubicación perfecta - cerca del parque Somiedo, del mar, de Gijón y Oviedo. Además, el dueño, Jose Manuel, ofrece cantidades de información util de las rutas, de la comida, lo que sea. Parece tener enchufes por todas partes. En el pueblo al lado se come bien en la Casa Ricardo y se desayuna de maravilla en El Casino. Para un grupo que quiere disfrutar de todo lo que ofrece la region, recom
