4. Things to do that we can arrange; Guided tours
A walk through the old town of Avilés (declared historic artistic
site) will give you a view of all the different architectural styles
that populate this ancient city known as the medieval village of
Asturias. Walking its streets is like walking through history from
the S. XII to the present, between spaces and buildings
representing the architectural styles of Romanesque, Gothic,
Baroque and Art Nouveau.
If you are travelling with children, we recommend the Ferrera
Park, where the young ones can feed the swan, geese and ducks
that roam freely about.
If you are the seafaring type, take a walk down the estuary and
enjoy a bottle of the local hard cider along with a plate of devil
crabs.

5. Or you may fancy a typical breakfast: chocolate con churros
Enjoy having one of the Spanish famous treats, Chocolate con Churros!
Thick, rich Spanish hot chocolate and crispy, sweet churros are always popular for
breakfast or “merienda”.
Avilés is famous for its confectioneries so if you don’t want churros you will find a wide
range of sweet things to have your chocolate with as the “mantecao”
