The house dates from the 16th century. It was the residence of the Lamadrid family, whose coat of arms can be seen on the façade. It is a typical Cantabrian mountain house with a façade listed as BIC. Its integral rehabilitation process has lasted about two years. The house was very deteriorated but even so we have tried to recover as many of the original materials as possible. Contrasts have been sought, incorporating more modern finishes with natural materials that are even more different from the original elements: polished cement floors that blend in with the stone walls, modern light sheet metal staircases that fit into the gaps left by the century-old beams.

In the main hall it was possible to maintain the original hydraulic floor in its entirety, restoring other pieces found in the house that have been used to give personality to the bathrooms and to introduce some elements from the original house into them. Some 70% of the new materials incorporated have been recovered from demolition work. The wooden floor in one wing of the house is made of old pine, more than 100 years old, as are all the interior doors. Natural materials, sobriety and respect for its original essence.

The interior design was carried out in a state of alarm by COVID19, so it was an exercise in sustainability and creativity. All the materials and furniture from various family homes were used. The tables in both dining rooms were made from old wooden floors, and as seats, for one of them some old benches were reused that were originally found in the house and were restored, as well as a bullfighting poster from the Santander bullring from the 1950s and some old cartwheels that appeared on the site.

Most of the furniture is of family origin from different periods, all combined with the use of fabrics, upholstery and natural fabrics such as cotton, linen, recovered jutes… combined with top quality equipment such as 100% Egyptian cotton sheets and towels and beds with the best hotel standards.

Located in Escalante, also known as the “Santillana del Mar de Trasmiera”, this small village located in the eastern part of Cantabria of medieval origin captivates us with its large houses that conserve their mountain style. On the shores of the marshes of Santoña and catalogued as a natural park, the whole area maintains its ecosystem intact, located just 3 km from one of the best beaches in Cantabria, the kilometre-long beach of Berria, chosen by surf lovers as one of their favourite beaches par excellence where they go throughout the year, especially suitable for beginners. The beach of Trengandín in Noja is 7 km away, considered one of the best in Spain by National Geographic in 2023.

The Natural Park of the Marshes of Santoña, Victoria and Joyel, with more than 4,000 hectares of high ecological value, is considered one of the most biologically diverse enclaves in Spain, with more than 20,000 birds of 120 different species, small mammals and a unique flora. A good number of them come from Northern Europe and choose Santoña to spend a much milder winter than in their countries of origin. Spring and autumn are the migratory seasons, making this the ideal time to observe seabirds. Among other species, you will be able to see large and small loons, red-necked grebes, black-faced goose barnacles, common scoters, medium-sized serins and common razorbills.
