Our home exchange - places to go and things to do while staying in our home
The environment is ideal if you would like a relaxing walk through the routes around the house as well as a bike ride.
There is a Horse Riding Centre in a town called Navarrete only 10 minutes away from the house. Also for the golf lovers, there are two beautiful golf courses very near, in Sojuela and Logroño.
The city of Logroño offers lots of touristic attractions and cultural diversity. The most known about this gorgeous city is Laurel Street, where you will find an incredible variety of tapas bars and taste the typical food from the region as well as the superb Rioja wines.

La Rioja is one the most important wine producers in the world. In here, wine is tradition, is a way of life that you could experience throughout your visit. We highly recommend you to visit some of our best wineries such as Muga, Lopez de Heredia, Marques de Riscal and Marques de Murrieta among others. We also encourage you to visit the Vivanco Cultura del Vino Museum, located in Briones, near Haro, one of the Rioja "Wine Capitals".
Other attractive attractions nearby are the Yuso and Suso Monasteries in San Millán de la Cogolla (Cradle of the Spanish Language ) as well as other interesting monasteries such as Cañas, Santa Maria de La Real, and Valvanera.
