A country house over a hundred years old among the vineyards of Breña Baja, with sea views and equipped for stargazing; 8 minutes from Los Cancajos.

Carlota is a country house over a hundred years old in a vineyard area of Breña Baja, on the east slope of La Palma, facing the sunrise and restored in its traditional style, with large windows that let in the morning sun. It has two bedrooms and is marketed by the Asociación Turismo Rural Isla Bonita, which sells it for its views, its silence and its starry nights.
The balcony over Breña Baja
From its hillock you see Puntallana, Santa Cruz de La Palma, Breña Alta and Breña Baja, sea and land at once, and on clear days Tenerife and La Gomera on the horizon. Around it there are vines and native plants, and the house keeps traditional features such as cisterns. Inside, according to the entry of the Cabildo's StarsIsland club, a large living room with the old kitchen, with a hooded fireplace, wooden cupboard and period tiles, wooden ceilings and floors and a small travertine marble bathroom.
Telescopes at home
It is one of the astronomy-themed country houses of the Cabildo's StarsIsland product club. In that club's entry it is listed with a Celestron CPC 800 telescope and a NexStar 6SE, with their sets of eyepieces, 15×70 binoculars with a tripod, planispheres, astronomy books in several languages, a green laser pointer, a Polaris finder, a ceramic plate with a compass and a sundial, plus a tablet and a laptop with astronomical information. Ask when booking what equipment the house has today, because the association's website does not detail it, and whether someone will show you how to set it up.
Getting there and getting around
You arrive by the El Brezal track, the one of the PR LP 18 trail, which links the beach of Los Cancajos, about 8 minutes by car away, with the El Pilar refuge at the summit. AstroLaPalma's guided observations and the night photography tour leave from Los Cancajos, so the return at night is short. For dinner nearby, Casa Osmunda, in Breña Alta, and the Parador restaurant, in El Zumacal. Do not turn up unannounced: the association's office gives you the time and place where the owners will meet you.

The windows face the sunrise and the sea: the morning light floods in.
