Villa Fragas

The villa

Set along a quiet country road, this charming stone villa boasts traditional Galician style, with timber-framed windows and rustic shutters. The expansive garden offers privacy, with a lawn bordered by trees, ideal for relaxing by the pool, sunbathing, or enjoying meals outdoors at the dining table. Several benches around the lawn provide shady spots to unwind.

Inside, the villa combines classic charm with modern comfort. Exposed timber beams and cozy furnishings create a warm atmosphere. The ground floor includes a spacious living area with a large sofa and stone fireplace, perfect for cooler evenings. The fully-equipped kitchen and dining areas are ideal for family meals, though you might prefer to dine outside in the sun.

Spread across three levels, Villa Fragas offers four inviting bedrooms. The master suite is a standout, with a luxurious private bathroom, a soaking tub, and balcony views of the garden. A second room with twin beds includes an ensuite and dressing room, while the remaining rooms share bathrooms.

With its independent spaces and peaceful setting, Villa Fragas is the perfect spot for family gatherings or a tranquil retreat in the heart of Galicia.

Situated on the edge of a charming hamlet, Villa Fragas enjoys a peaceful rural setting whilst being just a short drive from the region's beautiful beaches. Stretching for hundreds of miles, the rugged Galician coastline is littered with hidden inlets and picturesque bays, and there are plenty of opportunities nearby to enjoy an afternoon beside the sea.

A short drive away, Praia Da Alameda is a beautiful spot, and you can stroll along the quiet beach or enjoy a picnic on the sand. Due to its low tide, the beach is not great for swimming, but slightly further to the north, Praia Grande de Miño Beach is the perfect place to take a dip in the bracing Atlantic waters. Just outside the town, the long stretch of sand is suitable for all the family, and there is a beach bar to the rear where you can stop for a lunchtime snack and tasty ice cream.

Continue along the coast to discover the numerous coves, or head inland, following the estuary to the delightful town of Betanzos. With its charming medieval district and grand churches, the traditional settlement sits on the convergence of two rivers and was once one of the seven provincial capitals of the Kingdom of Galicia. You can wander the older quarter to see three of the remaining gates from the former town wall or head up one of the sloping streets to the Plaza Hermanos García Naveira to see several important monuments, as well as the beautiful Church and Convent of Santo Domingo, built atop a chapel in the 16th century. Stop for a drink in Plaza de la Constitución and admire the large balconies and arcades, or head to Callejón de la Tortilla, where you will find several bars dedicated to the sacred Tortilla dish.
