Description

Perfect for families or friends, it is spacious and has everything you'd need for a relaxing holiday, including a private swimming pool and fully-equipped kitchen with a washing machine and oven.

A mixture of modern and classic, this villa exudes charm. It's made from traditional stone and overlooks the tree-dotted forests and sweeping coastline – you can make the most of the beautiful views from nearly all of the rooms thanks to its large glass windows and doors. Four of the bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms and all of them have their own television. Choose from four doubles and a twin bedroom. There's also under floor heating and air conditioning throughout this villa, making it perfect for both warm and cooler-weather stays. Wi-Fi comes as standard, too.

While you're cooling off in the saltwater swimming pool, children can play in the garden – there's plenty of soft grassy areas and spots under shade. There's a spacious living room here, too, with a working fireplace and comfy sofas to kick back on after a day of exploring. When it comes to meal times, you can pick up your fresh produce in Poio or try local cuisine in one of the restaurants there. The villa has both an indoor and outdoor dining table, so meal times are a real treat.

Poio itself is steeped in architecture and there are plenty of beaches here, too with soft sands for sunbathing ang calm waters for swimming. With Pontevedra town only a short 15-minute drive away and Campelo and Combarro within reach, too, it's the perfect place to see more of this beautiful part of Galicia, Spain. The villa has free, on-site parking, so it's never been easier to get exploring.

#### Location
Villa Zuniga is in O Sartal in Pontevedra, northern Spain. Set high into the hillside, it flaunts fantastic views of the tree-dotted forests and sweeping coastline below. The villa's just 3km from Poio with its historic architecture, shops, restaurants and beaches, too and is only a 15 minute' drive from Pontevedra town centre. This area in Galicia is known for its rugged coasts and thickly wooded countryside. You can eat some of the best seafood in Europe here, too – all washed down with a glass of delicious Albarino wine. Galicia is a hidden gem, and still remains largely off the typical tourist trail – making it an ideal destination for an authentic Spanish retreat.

In Pontevedra – known for its well-preserved old town and Gothic Santa Maria la Mayor Basilica –you can get your dose of culture. Snap pictures of the historic churches and charming squares here, before sampling local cuisine in one of the bars and restaurants. Fresh seafood like octopus, or other Galician specialties like empanada gallega – a large pie usually filled with meat – are a must try.

Other must-see cities like Vilanova de Cerveira and Caminha are close by, too. You could also make tracks for Vigo, Porto or Tui. The latter is a Romanesque and gothic village that's steeped in history. Take in the cathedral and churches there, before heading to the mountain of Aloia nearby. If you climb to the top, you'll be rewarded with views of Vigo estuary and the Louro valley below.
