Today this splendid manor house remains as an ancestral monument of the 17th Century. Its large, grandiose apartments are set in traditional stone cottages, with wooden floors and ceilings.

MORE INFORMATION

This splendid manor house is curiously named as it was once used to store official documents relating to the income and rents of the local population, the word 'assentos' meaning records. Its spacious apartments converted from traditional stone cottages are supported by two swimming pools and tennis courts.
