Eighteen years ago, we first visited friends in Oviedo, the vibrant capital of Asturias. Something about the landscape, the people, the pace of life, it all stayed with us. We knew right then this region was special. A later trip to the coastal town of Llanes sealed the deal. Asturias had found a permanent place in our hearts, and we couldn’t wait any longer. Now we’re here, living, exploring, and slowly building a life in this magical corner of Northern Spain.

Asturias is part of Spain’s lush, green North, alongside Cantabria, Euskadi (the Basque Country), and Galicia. It’s a region of dramatic coastlines, misty mountains, deep traditions, and generous people. The food is unforgettable, the culture alive, and the pace of life grounded and real. Thanks to the Picos de Europa mountain range, the climate remains mild, even in summer, making it ideal for outdoor adventures or slow, scenic days.

What we love most is how Asturias offers a different kind of luxury:
Space. Simplicity. Local life.
