Casa Rural Camino Blanco

A house for the group

Camino Blanco is a detached house in Ibeas de Juarros, the village of the CAYAC, from where the visits to the Atapuerca sites leave. Outside it is rural architecture; inside, modern design with a Nordic feel. It is rented as a whole, with capacity for 16 people, and is designed for large families or groups of friends who want to be together with plenty of space.

Bedrooms and bathrooms

According to the house's website, there are six bedrooms spread over two floors. There are two doubles with a 150 cm bed, one of them adapted for people with reduced mobility, and four triples with a 150 cm bed and a 90 cm one. Two of the triples, 3 and 6, have their own bathroom and dressing room, and 6 adds a large terrace; the house says one of them measures 40 m².

In total there are five bathrooms, one adapted, plus a toilet next to the living room and the kitchen. Downstairs there is a bathroom with shower and the adapted one; upstairs, one with shower and bath, besides the two private ones in bedrooms 3 and 6. The website highlights viscoelastic mattresses and pillows.

Common areas and outdoors

On the ground floor is the 80 m² living room, with a sofa for 16 people, a dining table for the whole group and high chairs. The kitchen is equipped with a washing machine, dishwasher, coffee machine and oven. Outside there is a covered picnic area with a wood-fired oven, appliances, a barbecue and another table for 16, a porch with sofas and a games area with table football and an arcade machine.

The garden has furniture and games for children; the house's page gives it about 800 m², although the front page speaks of 1,000. The pool is private and fenced, of 60 m², with a shallow area for children, and is open from June to September. There is a parking area, wifi, board games, old bicycles to borrow, cots and high chairs, and tourist information about Burgos. The Junta's official listing says it accepts dogs; the website does not give conditions, so ask when you book.

Getting there and what is nearby

It is on Calle Molino Blanco, about three minutes' walk from the centre of Ibeas and about 10 km from Burgos on the N-120. For the sites you do not need to drive to the departure point: the CAYAC is in the same village. The Museum of Human Evolution, in Burgos, completes the visit, and with children Paleolítico Vivo fits well.
