Casa Julian, Galicia

A charming, old, detached stone house with a delightful, enclosed garden, and a small children's pool, Casa Julian is set in a peaceful village amongst Albarino vineyards, in the heart of the Salnes valley with its gentle climate in the Rias Baixas.

Lovingly restored whilst maintaining many of its original features the house is spacious, attractively decorated and furnished and well distributed, making a very comfortable holiday home, full of character. The bedrooms, all with ensuite bathrooms, are particularly inviting.

The property has been well thought out for every member of the family, from the billiard table in the sitting room, the wonderfully rustic BBQ room with its traditional Galician fireplace and original bread oven, the "fun" children's bedroom and all the different sitting out areas in the garden so everyone can have their own space.

You are in a real country spot and the views from the garden of the local church "on the mount" (illuminated at night) and the coast beyond are magical especially at sunset.

In spite of the rural setting you have most amenities close at hand with some very good restaurants nearby, fantastic beaches and the popular resort of Sanxenxo with its impressive marina at six kilometres. The ancient towns of Cambados and Combarro are just a little further and just on your doorstep there are some lovely walks, particularly along the river A Chanca, taking in all the old watermills.

The house has WIFI, wheelchair access and the owners allow pets.
