El Horrín De Claudia is located in Ponga, Spain. Rated 9.4 out of 10 based on 5 guest reviews.
El Horrín De Claudia is a country-style stay in Ponga, Spain, set in Bº El Cueto Tanda, where the landscape does most of the talking. With a guest rating of 9.4/10 from five reviews, it’s the kind of place visitors describe as calm and well matched to time spent outdoors. The accommodation suits road-trip travellers who want heating for cooler mountain evenings, plus a terrace for slower mornings. A 24-hour front desk helps when arrival times don’t follow a schedule, and the tour desk is useful for planning days around the Picos de Europa region.
