Do you want to visit Asturias? Photography competition.

When we started Tales from Toriello it was mainly to keep friends and family informed about what we get up to whilst we are in Spain. Somewhat surprisingly the numbers of people reading our blog has grown beyond expectations and we are constantly amazed that we have regular visitors from all over the world some of whom have also visited us here in real life. With over 3000 online visitors a month, we thought some of you might be interested in the opportunity to visit Asturias, well here is how...

This blog post is unusual for us in so much that it is a slight deviation from our normal content. A photographic competition with a prize of three nights accommodation, dinner and breakfast for two at an award winning ecological hotel and organic farm in Collia about 20 minutes from La Pasera. Details at the end of this post.

There is no doubt that Asturias is truly a natural paradise. With extensive unspoilt beaches, underdeveloped coastlines, woodlands, valleys and mountains rich in fauna and flora, a rich cultural history and a range of traditional and typical Spanish villages, towns and cities, Asturias has a great deal to offer on a short break or longer vacation.

We visited Asturias back in 2004 and ended up buying a house out here.

On our first visit to Asturias we stayed at the Hotel Posada del Valle and it proved to be an ideal base for exploring all that Asturias has to offer. We have since become friends with Nigel and Joanne who own and run the hotel and farm, hence helping to promote this free to enter competition.

You might have already taken the winning photograph so have a look through the competition guidelines, revisit your photography archives and submit your winning photo soon. Who knows, you could be here sooner than you think.
