Beach cottage with plunge pool on the Wild Death Coast of Galicia

We loved the beautifully renovated internal spaces of the property, but the external photos were a bit misleading. The tiny space beside the plunge pool is filled by a bench seat; there's no way you can fit the table and four chairs in it. (The photo shows a table with four place settings, which was misleading.) The "separate garden area" advertised on the property details was never made available to us. It took a lot longer than 15 minutes to walk down to the beach. The owner was extremely friendly helpful."

Beautiful cottage, done up to high standard. Welcoming and helpful owners. A fabulous little hideaway with an easy walk to a great beach. Such a lovely week"

What a wonderful break from the world . This house is a unique retreat into nature and is flanked by wild beaches, protected dunes and pristine nature. Our days were passed with freshly delivered bread, long walks through the dunes, swims and surfing at the beach and incredible local hikes along the wild coastline.The house is beautiful and comfortable with plenty of charm. What a pleasure to wake up and fall asleep to crashing waves. Eva was such a helpful host and made us feel welcome with delicious local treats on our arrival. If you are looking for a wild , beachy escape in a unique part of Spain- this is the place !"

Thank you so much again! We had a wonderful stay and felt very comfortable and at home. It is an idyllic house which has been designed beautifully. Roberto and Eva are fabulous hosts and are very accommodating, 10/10 experience!"

We had a really great time in Galicia. It was beautiful, empty beaches and good food, lovely forests. The house was perfect for us, and a fantastic base for our holiday. It was exactly as pictured, and nothing at all was missing to make our stay really enjoyable. Thanks to Eva, we were given plenty of ideas for trips, and made and the most of the good weather. She really couldn’t do enough for us. The house is lovingly restored, and we felt very care had been taken to ensure we’d have a good week. The highlight was the bread van stopping outside at about 10.00 each morning!"

Our week here was the highlight of an amazing trip. Roberto was the consummate host and could not have provided a better experience. His hospitality went above and beyond, including local knowledge and gourmet treats. Our five year old thought he was the greatest (and so did we). The property is well appointed and equipped and it’s a gentle walk into town. We’d come back and stay a month and still feel it wasn’t enough. We tell anyone who asks that this is the place to go. Truly an experience and a stay that we will treasure."

We have had a lovely week at the beach house, the house is furnished in a very nice way and all the fixtures are of a very high quality. There are lovely touches throughout the house and the kitchen / living room is very comfortable. We were very pleased and will return to see more of the area."

Roberto was an excellent host, friendly, informative and keen to ensure we had an enjoyable stay in Galicia. The house is very comfortable, cleverly designed, thoughtfully equipped. and stylish. The immediate beach area and tidal lake are beautiful and reached via a patchwork of fields. The property is an ideal touring base to see Galicia - an easy drive to Santiago de Campostela or in either direction to the wild, historic and unspoilt coastline. We had our dog with us and there were no issues accessing any of the beaches (granted we were out of high season). If you are in to nightlife and 'cosmopolitan' cities Galicia is probably not for you. If however you are looking for a refreshing and peaceful holiday in a fascinating and less explored area of Spain you will love it, and won't find a more charming and practical base than this cottage - particularly if you are a couple or small family group. We also had a trouble-free experience with the Rustical Travel team - they were very responsive to any queries and the information on the property and area was accurate and helpful. Muchos gracias"

A very carefully appointed and designed retreat. Ideal for 4 persons. The walk across the dunes to the beach is glorious (very healthy) and Razo has a nice surf scene which our older children loved plus the surf lessons. This area is a tucked away Spanish secret. Eva and Robert are great hosts."

Unbelievable property. Thank you for an amazing stay. We were two young children and two adults. Holiday of a lifetime and highly recommended. The hosts could not have been nicer or more accommodating. Terry"
