    Description

    Hello, I live in a village house in a small town in central Cantabria with Gal, my cat. She loves going out into the garden and purring. The house is spacious, has a work area, and lovely walks in the area.

    Hola, vivo en una casa de pueblo del centro de Cantabria con Gal, mi gata. Ella adora salir al jardín y ronronear. La casa es amplia, hay zona de trabajo y bonitos paseos por la zona.

    Accommodation

    I offer a spacious room with a double bed, a large wardrobe, and a desk. The room has a window. All bedding is provided, as is the rest of the house (common areas at your disposal: kitchen, bathroom, living room, garden).
    It's a town with limited public transport, so a car is ideal. I have a space for you to park. It's half an hour from Torrelavega and Reinosa. It's a quiet area, with beautiful countryside for strolling, and a store 2 kilometers away for general shopping. The house is located within the town; it's large, with a work area (a small rehearsal room) and several bedrooms. A garden for relaxing...

    Ofrezco una habitación con cama doble, armario grande y escritorio. La habitación tiene ventana. Toda la ropa de cama disponible y el resto de la casa (zonas comunes a tu disposición: cocina, baño, salón, jardín).
    Es un pueblo con poco transporte público, lo ideal es tener coche, tengo hueco para que puedas aparcar. Está a media hora de Torrelavega y de Reinosa. Es una zona tranquila, bonitos paisajes para pasear, y una tienda a 2 kilómetros para compras generales. La casa se encuentra dentro del pueblo, es grande, tengo zona de trabajo (pequeña sala de ensayo) y varias habitaciones. Un jardín para descansar...
