Situated on the beach in Portosin, in the Rías Baixas area of northern Galicia, sits this cheerful two-bedroom villa. With direct access to Coira beach, this neat property is the place to come if you’re looking for the sea- you really can’t get much closer to it than this!
Inside, the décor is plain and comfortable. Wood-panelled walls and white beach furnishings create a tranquil ambience in the living room, and it won’t be long before you’re relaxing on the sofa and staring through the huge windows, mesmerised by the views. Handily, the two sofas double up as single beds for children, and there’s also a TV to keep them entertained. Overlooking the lounge is a small kitchen for preparing delicious meals that can be served at the sit-up counter. But for a more inviting dining venue, step through to the covered veranda. Featuring a six-seater table and floor-to-ceiling glass windows, it’s a delightful space. Once you’ve eaten, cosy up with a good book or sit back and watch the surf gently lapping against the shore.
Two double bedrooms can also be found on this floor, and both are a good size. Wood panelling, white linen and marine blue cushions create a soothing atmosphere, while large windows overlook the beach and garden and flood the rooms with plenty of uplifting light. There’s a bathroom with a shower on this floor and an extra bathroom on the lower ground floor.
While the interior is simple, the outdoor setting is sublime. And happily, it’s only a hop and a skip straight from the veranda onto the beach. Spend the day in the surf, build castles on the shore, or explore the coastline in the villa’s kayak. And when you tire of the beach, simply wander back to the villa barefoot, rub the sand from your feet, and enjoy a cool drink in the pretty garden. Alternatively, pull up a sun lounger and enjoy a snooze under a shady tree. When the day starts to draw to a close, light the barbecue, gather the family, and dine al fresco at the outdoor table. Afterwards, you might be tempted to stretch your legs before bed with a walk along the shore. Villa Portosin is ideally placed for beach-lovers, yet it is only a 5-minute walk to the restaurants and shops in the small town of Portosin.

Location:
Located on Coira Beach and overlooking Ria de Muros Y Noia, Villa Portosin is ideal for guests who love being close to the sea. The sandy beach is clean with calm waters and is the perfect place to relax and enjoy a swim. There are also a number of eateries dotted along the beach where you can grab a bite to eat. The town of Portosin is a 5-minute walk from the property and is a working fishing village with a small number of shops, restaurants and tapas bars. Portosin also has a private yacht club and harbour and is the closest marina to Santiago de Compostela (Galicia’s capital).
Although the surrounding area is wonderfully tranquil, you can learn about the history of the area at Castro de Baroña, a 15-minute drive from the property. The Celtic people who lived in the region from the ninth century BC to the Roman era built distinctive circular structures. At Castro de Baroña, you can view the remains of one of these settlements. History-lovers can also get further information at the Centro de Interpretación do Castro de Barona, a 5-minute drive away in the coastal town of Porto do Son. Porto do Son is also a relaxed spot to linger over a glass of local Albariño wine and a Galician fish dish. Afterwards, relax on the beach or try your hand at surfing at the nearby surf club.
More reminders of the past can be seen in the town of Noia, a 20-minute drive north of the property. Admire the gothic buildings, browse the markets and shops, and then enjoy a coffee in the pretty medieval district. Later, stroll along the long boardwalk and enjoy sweeping views of the bay.
But for a full day of history and culture, make the 30-minute drive inland to the beautiful Santiago de Compostela. Packed with Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance, Baroque, and Neoclassicist buildings, Santiago is a well-preserved historical city and popular pilgrimage site. Spend the morning meandering through the medieval streets with their gold-tinged monuments and be awe-struck by the stunning Catedral del Apostol. Considered a masterpiece of Romanesque architecture, it also features the remarkable Portico de la Gloria. A whole day can easily be spent exploring Santiago’s most famous building, but if you need a breather, head to the leafy Alameda Park. Alternatively, head to Rúa do Franco and enjoy a drink and tapas at one of the many bars dotted along this road.
