Our Cottage
Casa Petirrojo – Robin House
Our cottage, Casa Petirrojo, is our Self Catering Spanish Pyrenees Torla accommodation. The cottage nestles below the church, just 3 minutes down the steps from this charming medieval village. Historically a hillside barn, it has been converted into a beautiful stone cottage on 3 floors. It sleeps up to 4 comfortably and is equally suited to a family, or for 1 or 2 couples, each with the privacy of their own floor and bathroom .
A south facing sun terrace means alfresco dining from spring through to autumn.
For winter stays, we have an open log fire and central heating.
The house is reached from the steps that lead to the village. Car parking is 30m away, or if there is no space here, we are only 50m from the main visitor car park.

Torla itself is a beautiful medieval village, narrow streets wind up the hillside with fine examples of Aragonese architecture. There are a number of excellent restaurants as well as two small supermarkets, adventure companies, tourist information with free WiFi, 2 banks, doctors, chemist, local butcher and a number bars.
Torla is known as the gateway to the National Park of Ordesa and Monte Perdido.
Our self-catering Spanish Pyrenees Torla cottage is in the perfect position, only 5 minutes up the steps to the village, and yet far enough away to be private.
On our very doorstop is the main entrance to the spectacular National Park of Ordesa and Monte Perdido. The park Visitors Centre is just 150m away from the cottage. From here, in peak season, and other certain times of year, you can catch the shuttle bus into the Ordesa valley. See our blog post, Ordesa National Park Shuttle Bus for bus times. Outside these times, the park can be reached by car (8km).
Established in 1918 it covers over156 km² with beautiful trails and dramatic walks. The Pradera is the starting point for most of the walks. Classified as a UNESCO World Biosphere Reserve and a Special Protection Area for birds it cannot be missed!
There is so much to see and do in and around Torla that we have guests who return year after year to our Self-Catering Spanish Pyrenees Torla cottage.
At the very least you should take the 4×4 Ordesa Trip. This four-hour trip will take you to see spectacular and unforgettable views of the Ordesa Valley. Reservations must be made in advance.
For the more adventurous try Via Ferrata close by in Broto, with Aventuras Pirenaicas. There is also canyoning or white water rafting. Any one of the adventure companies in Torla can organise these for you.
