Leaving the city to start a new life in the countryside. It is one of the quintessential themes of a certain genre of afternoon movies and a fairly widespread aspiration—not without a certain dose of romanticization—among those who are exposed to the rhythms and pressures of living in a big city. As an intermediate solution, the option of a getaway far from the madding crowd comes to the rescue, and for this , Ruralka’s Best Rural House 2025 is a very good candidate.
This “club of rural accommodations that brings the countryside to the city” has considered that La Ren Lecrés, in Vadocondes (Burgos), deserves this distinction as it is “a house designed to be enjoyed in company, with details that make you fall in love, absolute calm, and hospitality that is noticeable from the moment you arrive.”
The destination, although it may not seem so, is quite close to Madrid (a 2-hour drive from the capital) and promises to be, for its guests, a rural oasis “where you can appreciate the land, the silence, the tranquility. A space to connect with nature, with yourself, and with your loved ones.”
The house—located, incidentally, in a village declared a Site of Cultural Interest and near Aranda de Duero—has six rooms and a modern apartment in which, however, the traditional architecture has been preserved to retain traces of what it once was: an old barn.
How much does it cost to stay at the Best Rural House 2025?
If we simulate two people spending a weekend in the apartment—in this case, from Friday, April 10, to Sunday, April 12— the total price is €255. The accommodation, which is 60 square meters on a single floor, also has a large garden with an indoor pool and barbecue area.
