Casa Bargo

Perched on a hillside and overlooking the nearby estuary in beautiful Galicia sits this charming three-bedroom villa. Natural finishes and unfussy decor make this a homely and comfortable place. The ground floor lounge and dining area have plenty of old-world charm with exposed stone walls, wooden beams and cool, tiled flooring. Unwind on the plump sofas, chat with the family or enjoy a meal at the dining table seating six people. There’s even an open fireplace to keep things cosy on cooler nights. But when the sun is shining, open the glass doors and let a warm breeze waft in. For a more casual bite-to-eat, step into the simple but well-equipped kitchen and eat at the breakfast table overlooking a small terrace. Stairs lead up to the first floor, where you’ll find a lounge with a sofa and TV. Watch your favourite programme, browse the books on the bookshelf or play board games at the table. The interior also features three bedrooms with one double room and two twin rooms. Rooms are unfussy and light and boast glorious sea views. One of the twin bedrooms has an en-suite, and there’s also a shared shower on this floor. Step outside, and you’ll soon be mesmerised by the rolling mountains and vivid blue estuary water. Equally blue is the infinity pool water, where you can cool off during the day or simply relax on one of the shady sunbeds. There’s also a sloping garden where the children can play on the lawn while you sit and soak up the surroundings under one of the trees. But come evening, gather everyone together, light the barbecue and dine al fresco while watching the sun dip below the horizon. Casa Bargo is located on a hillside in a quiet residential area surrounded by eucalyptus and palm trees. It’s a 5-minute drive to the seaside resort of Cangas with its lively market, cafe and shops and is within walking distance to a bar and small supermarket. An idyllic spot, the property is also perfectly placed for outdoor activity, with hiking trails straight from the doorstep and beautiful, unspoilt beaches nearby.

From the property, it’s less than a 10-minute walk to the local supermarket and restaurant. For those who want to immerse themselves in nature, it’s a 10-minute drive to the Aldan estuary. This small bay is dotted with coves and small, unspoilt beaches and also offers plenty of magnificent hiking trails, including scenic routes to the peninsulas at Cabo Udra and Punta do Couso. But for a more leisurely stroll in nature, walk through the enchanted forest at Aldan and soak up the park’s magical atmosphere with its ancient trees, river and a small castle. Other beaches worth a visit include Nerga Beach and Praia de Melide. A fifteen-minute drive away, Nerga Beach has calm waters and clean sand and is a good choice for the whole family. Alternatively, drive thirty minutes to Praia de Melide, located at the tip of the peninsula. Backed by woods, it’s a quiet place for a swim and offers a fantastic walk along the cape to the lighthouse. Closer to the property, the coastal town of Cangas is also worth a visit. Just a 5-minute drive away, you’ll find a number of small beaches in the Cangas area, while in the town, you can explore the historic centre, browse the shops, and visit the lively markets. Be sure to also stop and sample the catch of the day at the restaurants down by the pier. For a full day out, head to the port in Cangas, jump on a ferry and make the 40-minute crossing to the three islands of the Cies Islands. Once used as hideouts to ambush Spanish shipping, the islands are now nature reserves and boast nine fabulous beaches. Rodas beach is the most popular of these beaches – it was once voted the best beach in the world by The Guardian. Spend the day swimming or snorkelling in the crystal-clear waters or hike along the island’s mountainous trail to the Cies lighthouse, where you’ll be rewarded with picture-perfect views. Once you’ve exhausted all the islands, have to offer, enjoy refreshments at one of the many beachside cafes before hopping back on the ferry again. Across the estuary, the city of Vigo is also worth exploring. Stroll through the Old Town with its art galleries and wicker shops and visit the cathedral dating back to 1811. There’s also a Museum of Contemporary Art where you can learn about Galician authors and admire the artwork of upcoming artists. Afterwards, be sure to enjoy a glass of Albarino wine and some tapas at one of the many excellent seafood restaurants. If you want a day at the beach, Samil beach is a good choice and perfect for children of all ages. Located in Vigo, it offers calm waters and a range of water sports, plus cafes and restaurants.
