Operated by Fonte Baxa · Luarca, Asturias
A low stone wall and the sound of waves set the scene before you even reach the gate: Fonte Baxa sits on the seaward edge of Luarca, its terraces and orchards folding down toward the Cantabrian Sea. On a private two-hour visit you move through family-tended lanes, past citrus and chestnut, into parts of the garden normally closed to the public. The air smells of salt and damp earth; birds call over the cliffs.
