Really welcoming hosts. Fabulous rustic positioning with wonderful views. Great place near amazing vineyards ( not to mention their own with great wines) They booked an amazing restaurant in the local village which just perfect. Nearby some extraordinary places. Just perfect.

Exceptional hosts and wonderful location in La Rioja. The winery tour is special and the wines are very good. We felt welcome and had a great and relaxing time with family and friends. The accomodation has 6 separate rooms, each with bathroom and is ideal for a group of friends, sharing the kitchen, living room and pool. The location is ideally located to visit many sightseeing spots in more Spanish regions. A special spot for memorable holidays.

Our stay with the Puelles was the highlight of our trip to Spain. We hoped to learn about the local winemaking culture and chose their listing for the winery tour and tasting. The tour and tasting were conducted by the winemaker's daughter, Irene, who has grown up making wine with her family and knows the process intimately. Her tour was outstanding, exceeding our highest expectations. The tasting that followed was equally fantastic, with the entire Puelles family joining us to sample a variety of their excellent wines. This is a multi-generational family of winemakers and they clearly love both the region where they live and the wine they produce. They gave us excellent recommendations for sight seeing and dining in nearby villages. The Puelles' lodging was equally outstanding, with 6 en suite rooms in the "hotel" adjacent to their house, able to accommodate up to 12 people. Very comfortable beds, spotless bathrooms. If you are a wine person, this is your place in La Rioja!!!

I cannot say enough great things about the Puelles family, who were the hosts. Irene was very helpful ahead of time helping us plan our visit and answering questions. The stay included a wine tasting and tour, which gave the history of the family’s winemaking. The wine was delicious, and we thoroughly enjoyed the tour. The Puelles family was lovely to us throughout the stay, and we were sad to leave. The entire property is incredibly beautiful and the accommodations are very well appointed and quiet. I highly recommend this as a place to stay while you tour the Rioja.

Thank you Irene. Thé communication with the host was especially easy and nice. Irene was super accommodating and tried to make our stay the best possible. We had a great moment. It looks a bit more like if you were at a hotel / chambre d’hôte than a private -owned house. Just be aware of it. But it was as described in the description . Thank you again Irene !

Our best stay for the trip!Irene and her dad Jesus are wonderful hosts! We stayed at their place and felt like family!Enjoyed the drinks session after dinner with the family. They are so warm and friendly! Nice location between Haro and Logrono. View of the vineyard from our bedrooms. Brandy their dog guided us through our walks in the vineyard and also to the town.And of course we did tastings of their wines. Superb and good value wines! The place was actually a hotel previously and the family is offering it for air bnb now. The bedrooms are like hotel, very nice rooms and attached toilets. Our group of 9 enjoyed the stay very much! Lovely rooms, well equipped kitchen and a washer.3 nights are not enough! Wished we could stay longer!! We will be back!Thank you for hosting us!

If you are looking for the most perfect spot in Rioja, look no further. Not only is this little slice of heaven perfectly nestled in the heart of Rioja, close to Haro, Logroño, and Laguardia, but it also has tremendous views of the mountains and vineyards that surround Abalos. The villa is beautiful, with 6 bedrooms, each with an en suite bathroom. There is a lovely outdoor terrace, an indoor pool and sauna, a cute game room up in the tower, and so much more! But what sets this apart from any other accommodations is Irene and her family. Irene is a perfect hostess. She is responsive, patient, kind, and has a clear passion for her family’s estate and legacy. Their family made us feel at home for the entire week. We will come back - it’s too good not to do so!

Amazing Wonderful ExperienceUnquestionably the best Air BnB place we have ever stayed in. We stayed in the Ritz Carlton in Tenerife before coming to mainland Spain and while it was fantastic, this was a better experience. Irene and her family are amazingly welcoming, we had the six rooms to ourselves and it was so private and spacious, the winery and the story of the Puelles family is inspiring. We stayed only for two days and wish it was longer but it would be a great place to use as a base to explore the Rioja region.

Well, what can I say about such a fantastic holiday - quite possibly the best accommodation, location and hosts that we've ever had. We planned our one week trip to La Rioja for a family member's birthday (avid Rioja and golf fan). To stay on a working vineyard was a truly memorable experience. We travelled as a family of nine (including 2 children). The accommodation, that Jesus and Irene provided, was perfect for our needs and exceeded our expectations! Nestled in the foothills of the mountains and in the middle La Rioja, the location was easy to access via car from Bilbao and was perfected secluded amongst the peace and tranquillity of the vines near the village of Abalos. We were welcomed with open arms by Irene who showed us around the accommodation, living room, kitchen, pool and roof terrace. We also met the Puelles family who were incredibly welcoming and invited us to share wine with their family. Nothing was too difficult for them to arrange. Irene kindly organised a restaurant booking for us in Laguardia which was perfect too. The accommodation and setting was perfect for a relaxing break to get away from everything. The trip also included a wine tour at the winery which was arranged to suit our plans and involved delicious wine tasting. The accommodation has a relaxing living room and kitchen which is perfect for family groups/family cooking if you're not keen on eating out all the time. The pool, also, was a lovely feature which the kids and adults alike loved. The sun terrace on the roof was also a quiet and secluded place for catching some rays and reading a book. One thing to note is that Abalos and the winery is situated in a rural location about 20 minutes from the nearest supermarket so having a car helps a lot with getting out and out to the nearby towns of Haro, Laguardia and Logrono. There is one small restaurant/hotel in Abalos which may not have reservations so be aware that you may need to travel by car to other bars/restaurants. This was not a problem for us and we preferred the peace and quiet in the countryside. Overall, I cannot rate this stay highly enough. The accommodation and location was perfect but the Puelles family really made our trip - they were kind, welcoming, friendly and wanting to help whenever they could. The wine from Bodegas Puelles was fantastic too - fantastic price, and we highly recommend the gran reserva and the molino. 10 out of 10 and thank you familia de Puelles.

What a beautiful place with a wonderful family. It is stays like this that make me wish I could give more than 5 stars. This was the perfect place; beautiful, comfortable, hospitable, fun… My family vacation was perfect largely because this chateau was perfect.
