If charm and history appeal to you, this schoolhouse might just fill your day with inspiration.
Once used as a rural schoolhouse during the Second Spanish Republic, this now cottage was in in complete ruins. That’s when interior designer Mikel Larrinaga decided to transform it into his little piece of heaven.
The main part of the cottage was used as the one and only classroom, where children of different ages where mixed to learn together. What is now a small kitchen, once used to be the teacher’s room.
Space, as you will see, is at a premium in this cottage, but that only adds to its charm and preciousness.
Via: El Mueble.
Country Cottage in Spain
This place is enchanting! The arch and doors are original to the house.
Patio
This covered patio is where you want to spend your afternoons, just enjoying good food and the hot weather, after all, you’re in Spain!
The Ikea curtain panels offer some comfort when closed.
Opposite door is from the 18th century.
Home-Sweet-Home
Love is always found in the details…
Outdoor Kitchen
This is so beautiful! It reminds me of my grandmother’s outdoor kitchen in our farm, back when I was a child in Brazil. You don’t even use your indoor kitchen… this is where you cook your meals and spend the day talking about life.
Rustic Touch
The more you see this cottage, the more you start respecting its beauty and the history it carries.
Sink and faucet are vintage finds.

This tiny bedroom is somehow very romantic… maybe because it’s in Spain… 🙂

Adding beauty with simplicity.
