A beautiful architectural ensemble: a square, a church, and the priest's house on the banks of the Ebro River, which, in this section, is no more than 40 cm deep!

Nestled in the beautiful Monte Hijedo, the Cabin is a mansion with typical architecture of the region, built at the beginning of the 20th century. Next to the main structure is a charming hermitage. The cabin is located in an area of natural beauty.
