A gem in an undiscovered corner of Spain
Review Submitted: August 31, 2008

A lovely cottage, with a large garden nestled between the woods and a stream. The house feels more like a home than a holiday rental, and has been thoughtfully restored and is clean and well maintained, with everything you need. A car is a necesity.
The Engilish speaking owners are friendly and helpful, and spared no trouble to ensure we enjoyed our stay.
Nearby are beatiful sandy beaches, although the Atlantic waters are a bit chilly! Santiago is about 1½ hours drive – and is a must – as is a visit to A Coruña, or exploring the wild coast of the Costa da Muerte. Or you can spend lazy days in and around the cottage. Galicia is an undiscovered corner of Spain, and you will not often meet other tourists.
Casa da Forxa would be ideal for families, romantic getaways, or anyone looking for a quiet relaxing holiday. But do bring your umbrellas!
