Description: Casa Juana Quinta is part of an ecological farm. The main elements of its decoration are flowers and canarian items. This gives the houses a warm and quiet atmosphere breathlable throught the house. The simple but functional furniture revives the rural canarian atmosphere, offering as well plenty of confort to the visitor.
The sitting-room keeps its original wooden ceiling of "tea" (pine core wood) showing the craftmanship and simple tecniques of hand cutting. All this is scarcely found so well conservated today because that belongs to the old days and most of it deteriorates everywhere.
The stoned patio and terraces with flowers are the right spots from which to admire the exceptional views from the sea right up to the top of the island. Nobody ever will forget the genuine picture -real, without paints- of the sunrise behind the silhouette of the impressive mountain of El Teide, in Tenerife, to the East of La Palma.![]() |  |

The church Ntra. Sra. de Los Dolores dates from the 18th century and is a good example of a building from those times.
Every weekend there is a farmers market in Mazo, where local products can be tasted and purchased.
Take a walk through the Parque Arqueolσgico de Belmaco and discover the world of the ancient peoples of La Palma.
In May Mazo celebrates the festival of Corpus Christi. The streets of the village (El Pueblo) are decorated with mosaics, cloth, arches, crosses and shields made from natural products including flower petals, seeds and rice.
There are more handicrafts to be seen in the museum Casa Roja, especially embroidery which is a speciality of the island.

| Situation: |
| Casa Juana Quinta is surrounded by a very quiet and suggestive enviroment, inviting to rest and relax. It is very close to the Royal Walk of the Coast (GR 130) that follows all the island round, and also close to the shorter walk PR LP 17, better known as "Camino de La Faya". This proximity to both walks and several other paths adds to those lovers of the practice of rambling large possibilities to enjoyment of gennuine nature. |
