What’s inside: 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, fully equipped kitchen and a very spacious living-dining room. Plus two independent lounges: a games room and a reading room, so each group finds their own corner.

  • 2 bathrooms
  • Equipped kitchen
  • Spacious living-dining room
  • Games room
  • Reading room
  • Shared pool
  • Shared jacuzzi (no booking · automatic timer)

Welcome

The village, the river and the silence

Waking up in Villafañe is waking up in a real village. With its pharmacy and its bars, its playground and the baker's van that comes by every morning — and on Fridays, the greengrocer too. A quiet life. But a life.

Ten minutes from León by motorway, but light-years from its rush. Five minutes from Puente Villarente, where you'll find a supermarket, restaurants and everything else you might need.

And just under the bridge, the Porma river: the village's hidden corner with picnic tables, a playground, fishing and a brand-new river beach freshly opened by the town hall — perfect for a cooling dip at the end of the day.

About the complex: the apartments are fully operational and the shared common areas —garden with the Buddha, courtyard with numbered pergolas, tables and benches —one for each apartment—, shared cellar, jacuzzi and POOL area— are now OPEN within usage hours. The outdoor POOL is open all year round, although it is not heated.

The Buddha corner

A symbol of calm
at the heart of the garden

A large seated Buddha statue presides over our garden, reminding us every day why we created this place: so you can stop, breathe and take a piece of peace home with you.

He is our small silent guardian, and has become many guests’ favourite spot for that photo they’ll always remember.

Frequently asked questions

Are pets allowed?
Yes, we welcome well-behaved dogs with a €15/night supplement and prior approval. We do not allow cats out of respect for allergic guests.

Two important conditions. Your dog cannot be left alone in the apartment: in an unfamiliar house animals get anxious and may cause damage. And your dog cannot come into the common areas or the pool, because not all of our guests travel with animals.
How far is the city of León?
10 minutes by car from central León via the N-601 (Villafañe exit), with easy access via the A-60 motorway too.
Is it easy to park? Do I have to pay?
Very easy and free. You park on the street right next to the accommodation — no paid zones or car parks. It is not a private car park, but as it is a small, quiet village there is always plenty of room and it is very safe.
Do I need a car? How do I get here?
Coming by car is the most convenient way: you are 10 minutes from León via the N-601 (Villafañe exit), with easy access from the A-60 motorway. Having a car lets you explore León, Mansilla de las Mulas, the Camino and the surrounding villages at your own pace. We send you the exact location for your GPS.
Do you allow stag or hen parties?
We do not host stag or hen parties. We do accept private events with full-complex rental on request.
When do the common areas (garden, cellar) and the Loto house open?
The shared common areas —garden with the Buddha, courtyard with numbered pergolas, tables and benches —one for each apartment—, shared cellar, jacuzzi and pool— are open within usage hours. The 4 · Loto house is in preparation and will open soon — join the waitlist to be among the first to know. Apartments 1, 2 and 3 are fully operational right now.
Is the pool open all year?
Yes. The pool is shared by all guests and open all year round. That said, it is not heated: the water temperature depends on the weather, so during the colder months swimming may not be enjoyable. The peak summer months are the best time for a swim.

Swimming hours are 10:15 AM to 10:00 PM, respecting quiet hours from 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM. The jacuzzi is also outdoors and unheated: in cold weather it may be completely unusable.
How do the common areas work (pool, jacuzzi, garden, cellar)?
They are shared common areas for all guests of the complex. The pool, the garden and the cellar are open within set hours. The jacuzzi does not require a booking: it runs on an automatic timer, switching on every so often and turning off by itself. As it is shared, other guests may be using it. We explain the facility schedules at check-in.
Is a deposit required?
Yes, a €50 per person deposit at check-in (preferably by bank transfer or Bizum; we accept cash only when neither of those is possible). For stays longer than 10 days the deposit is €400 per apartment. It is returned when you hand back the keys after inspection.
Do you offer early-booking discounts?
Yes. By booking more than 50 days in advance you get a better price plus a welcome basket with seasonal local León products. Message us with your dates and we will confirm the offer.
Are there any festivals or events in the village?
Villafañe celebrates its patron saint festivals on May 8-10 and July 18-21. Music, fairs and dancing in the square and the football field — an authentic León village experience. If you want to coincide, book early.
