The Sibarist

Charming rural house in Cantabria

Description

Located in the picturesque Barrio Riaño, in the Diseminado de San Román, Santa María de Cayón (Cantabria), this house offers a unique experience for those looking to disconnect in the middle of nature. Just 25 minutes from Santander and surrounded by cow farms in the north of the Pasiegos Valleys, this property stands out for its rural setting, ideal for enjoying peace and quiet, fresh air and beautiful mountain scenery.

The house, built in 1940 and completely restored in 2025, retains the rustic charm of the past, with a rehabilitation that has respected its original essence, thanks to the work of the Cotta architecture studio, led by Carlota Tapias.

The refurbishment has managed to perfectly blend the traditional style with modern comforts, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere.
