This modern three-floor, five-bedroom villa is located in the Spanish region of Galicia and has a pool with stunning views across the water to the Cíes Islands.Located fifteen minutes by car from the coastal town of Baiona, you’ll soak up the authentic Spanish vibe as soon as you walk through the door. The villa has been newly renovated and combines a rustic aesthetic with Mediterranean chic. The property makes generous use of wood and stone in keeping with the surrounding region’s landscape and traditional architecture. If you’re looking for an authentic Spanish experience, look no further because the villa has a traditional Galician Hórreo! A unique structure, these used to be granaries and can date all the way back to the 15th century. If you’re travelling around the region, you’ll see these protected buildings dotted across the Spanish countryside.Upon arrival at the villa, you’ll make your way into the two living areas on the ground floor which feature a smart TV and a fireplace, perfect for cosying up on cooler nights. In the daytime, open up the porch doors for a garden view and let the warm Spanish air flow through the house.Making your way upstairs will take you to the fully equipped kitchen with an adjoining dining area. The kitchen is linked to a beautiful tiled terrace with a dining area. From here, you can dine al fresco, gazing across the terracotta rooftops of Baiona to the Atlantic ocean and taking in the view as the sun goes down. One floor up are the bedrooms, tastefully decorated in neutral colours and each with their own view of either the garden or the sea. The cherry on the cake for us was the suite with a HydroMassage bathtub.The lush garden is surrounded by hedges for full privacy and the pool is undoubtedly a highlight of the property. Sun worshippers will be in their element on the loungers and it’s easy to see why guests spend hours here topping up their tans. You’ll be surrounded by Spanish flora with rolling green hills in the distance, so your time outdoors is guaranteed to be peaceful and rejuvenating. If you’re in the mood to cook outdoors, then the barbecue is there and perfect for some outdoor entertaining. There’s also a small apartment in the garden with a bathroom, a fireplace, and enough space for two people cosy up in front of the TV (please see T&Cs).

Location:
A fifteen-minute drive from the villa is Baiona, one of Spain’s most memorable coastal towns. A historic medieval city, the town features a beautiful bay surrounded by pretty, cobbled streets steeped in history and is home to Monterreal Fort and its famous Príncipe Tower with three kilometres of defensive walls. Construction on the fort began in the 12th century and was completed in the 16th century. In 1493, Baiona was the first town in Europe to learn of the discovery of the Americas, thanks to the arrival of a fleet of ships bringing the news. A replica of La Pinta, one of the ships from Christopher Columbus’ voyage, is situated in the harbour to visit. If you’re a history buff, the 18th-century Santa María Collegiate Church is also well worth visiting to admire the flourishes of Romanesque architecture.
The town perfectly combines gastronomy and culture. From the castle, gaze at the sunset and then settle down to a seafood dinner at one of the many restaurants serving up delicious tapas. If you feel like letting your hair down, Baiona has a typical "wine area" that gets very lively in the evening. Head to one of the taverns where you can enjoy Galician cuisine in a relaxed and familiar atmosphere, have a drink after dinner and enjoy this authentic Spanish area full of bars, tapas shops and restaurants.
You’ll also be close to some spectacular world heritage areas; The Camino de Santiago is a world-renowned walking pilgrimage, hosting 30,000 hikers every year, and Baiona is on the Portuguese Way path.
If you’re feeling really adventurous (and remembered your passport), you can head south to Portugal’s Costa Verde region and take in the endless beaches and pine woods which hug the coastline.
The jewel in the crown of Baiona is undoubtedly the Cíes Islands, an archipelago comprised of three unspoiled islands: Monte Agudo, O Faro and San Martiño, known for their stunning bays, crystal waters, lush flora, and unique wildlife. The islands are a protected environment and there are four walking trails, all boasting spectacular views, and even a bird observatory!
