Abadía Samitier

About

Abadia Samitier is a fully restored 17th century abbey. In the little mountain village Samitier the time seems to have stood still. Rush, traffic jams and work pressure don't exist there, and the rhythm is determined by the seasons. There's always time for a chat and visitors feel welcome. The inhabitants are proud of their old church, chapels and the 11th century castle ruin.Next to the Abadia are several hiking trails, for example a trail of one and a half hour to two beautifully restored chapels and an 11th century castle ruin. Up here the views are magnificent and breathtaking. Close to the village are canyons with a spectacular walking trail through them, and many dayhikes are possible. You will always have a large variety of birds (of prey) flying around you. (This blog - though in Dutch - gives a nice impression.)In our small B&B we have 3 rooms/suites for guests: 2 spacious suites (which have their own private living-, sleep-, and bathroom) and 1 luxury room with a bed- and bathroom. In the garden with it's beautiful views of Samitier, sierra de Guara, Monte Perdido and the valley of rio Susia, you'll be able to enjoy a glass of wine and a good book. The famous wine region Somontano is close by and several winehouses offer tastings and tours.In March spring really breaks through and nature is at it’s best. September and October are perfect months for hiking here in the Spanish Pyrenees.
