Casa Da Pedra

This cosy, three-bedroom villa is located in the Spanish region of Galicia and has a swimming pool, a large garden, and views of the surrounding Galician countryside. Located fifteen minutes by car from the coastal town of A Guarda, you will feel like you are soaking up Spanish history as soon as you walk through the  door. The traditional country house has been restored and combines a traditional aesthetic with Mediterranean chic. The property makes generous use of wood and stone in keeping with the surrounding region’s landscape and traditional architecture. Upon arrival at the villa, you will make your way into the living/dining area, which features a TV and a fireplace, perfect for cosying up on cooler nights. In the daytime, open up the windows and admire the stunning garden view while the warm Spanish air flows through the house. The traditional style of the house is complemented by antique furniture, and the high ceilings and earthy decor will make you feel like you’re in a home away from home. There are two double bedrooms and one twin bedroom, all tastefully decorated in neutral colours and each with a perfectly tiled en-suite bathroom. The living area opens into a fully-equipped kitchen decorated with woods, marble and tiles. Those that need their morning cup of java will be delighted that the kitchen comes with a coffee machine. Once that’s prepared, head outside to the covered patio and bask in the peace and quiet as the sun rises. The patio overlooks the pool and is set on the edge of a charming garden with touches of colourful flora. If you’re in the mood to dine al fresco, the barbecue is there and perfect for some outdoor entertaining. Sip your wine and gaze across the terracotta rooftops of Tomiño, or spend your days reclining on the sun loungers. Sun worshippers will be in their element in the garden, and it’s easy to see why guests spend hours here topping up their tans.

Naturally formed by the estuary of the river, the beaches run along the last two kilometres of the river delta and offer spectacular views of Portugal. Surrounded by pine woods, the beaches provide all the rest and relaxation of the surrounding sea beaches, plus pleasant shade for the sizzling summer weather. A thirty-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 Principe 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 there to visit in the harbour. If you’re a history buff, the 18th-century Santa Maria Collegiate Church is also well worth visiting to admire the flourishes of romanesque architecture. The town perfectly combines gastronomy and culture. From the castle, you can watch the sunset and then settle down for 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", which 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. The jewel in the crown of Baiona is undoubtedly the Cies islands, an archipelago comprised of three unspoiled islands, Monte Agudo, O Faro, and San Martino, 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! A fifty-minute drive away is Pontevedra which prides itself on tradition and hospitality. The city has plenty of historic buildings, churches, monuments, attractive plazas and a large shopping district. The old town begins to really thrive at night, with lively bars creating a vibrant atmosphere which continues well into the early hours. If you’re feeling really adventurous (and remember 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.
