Unspoiled getaway, superb ocean views house in a natural area

At the head of an untouched valley some 200m above sea, 'Lugar pequeno' is located in a place of privilege in the small hamlet of Golmar. The house, fully equipped and carbon-neutral, is the owners' summer home. It fusions tradition and family memories with a modern touch. All rooms and garden enjoy impressive ocean views over a green valley, forest and some 80Km of virgin Atlantic coast. The house’s unique location make the clean views over the unspoiled rural valley a natural extension of the garden. It receives sunlight from dawn to sunset. Within a Natural area, part of the EU network "Natura 2000", you will enjoy complete peacefulness, being only at 4 Km distance to the fishing town of Cedeira, with shops, all services, lovely beach and seaport, and very good tapas restaurants.

Nearby, you will enjoy some of the best sandy virgin beaches in Europe and outstanding hiking paths from the house through the forest, cliffs, the lighthouse.... Other activities, like surfing, via ferrata, horse riding,, e-bikes or kayak are available in the area.

Beaches: You can choose among beaches with extensive dunes and wonderful views (Vilarube), calm water (A Magdalena) or high waves (Pantin, Baleo) , birdwatching or kite-surfing(Frouxeira), etc. Cala Sonreiro is the hidden cove beach closer to the house, near to 'Castillo de La Concepción' (ancient fort defending Cedeira´s harbour).
In summer, “Pantin classic” is a well-known qualifying series of the world surfing championship.
Last weekend of June local ranchers gather hundreds of wild horses in Capelada mountains (12Km away), to haircut and deworming horses, branding foals born in springtime and trading some of them. A small fair and lively lunch accompanies these activities.

Excursions : Other interesting spots to visit (within less than one-hour drive) are, driving East, Estaca de Bares Cape, Ortigueira, O Barqueiro and Viveiro and, driving West, the Natural Park Fragas do Eume, Pontedeume or St. Felipe castle in Ferrol.

The cities of A Coruña or Santiago de Compostela, are excellent options for a day excursion (at 75 and 90 min-drive). Santiago is a must, its medieval centre is UNESCO´s world heritage, with the impressive cathedral (tomb of the apostle St. James) has been pilgrimage destination for centuries. A Coruña, financial centre of Galicia and home of the biggest Spanish fashion firm, Zara, and the well-know beer "Estrella Galicia", is a lively city with a wide range of cultural, gastronomic and shopping possibilities, as well as a very nice old medieval quarter and marina. Inland, Lugo (100 min. drive) is an ancient city surrounded by an impressive complete Roman wall (walking circular path of some 2 Km on the wall). Its charming old town includes a XII century cathedral, a baroque town hall and lovely squares and alleys.

How to get to: Flights to the airports of Santiago de Compostela (SCQ) or A Coruna (LCG) are often available. The 1.15 hour or 1.30 hour drive from A Coruña or Santiago airports is a pleasure in itself.

Fantastic views and peaceful
Fantastic views in house in need of updating in some areas and better cleaning. Owners communicated well and were helpful. They explained they had new cleaner which does not excuse the somewhat lacking cleaning job.

Gorgeous!
We loved it here..the west view over the sea is amazing and creates the most wonderful light over the ocean which is constantly changing. The hosts were extremely helpful and the house is perfectly set up for a family.. we all felt so relaxed and we enjoyed trips to the local cove beach and other surrounding beaches. It’s very quiet too and we used the Gaddis supermarket in Cedeira for food etc.. I would thoroughly recommend this accommodation for a relaxing and peaceful break. You definitely need a car to get around. 👍😉☺️

Paradise on the Galicia Coast
They use to think the coastline of the Galicia region was the end of the world…really, it’s a universe to awaken your five senses. This is the “perfect perch” to rest, read, relax and daydream. As the days melted by, we did ultimately leave to explore our local area of Cedeira, the Santiago de Compostela and the Praia das Catadrais. However, our happiest days were just staying on this beautiful property gazing at the ocean and exploring Cedeira...such a quaint town. The Galicia region is filled with forests of infinite shades of green, lighthouses of hope, stony “punta” coasts with wide coves of beach and the beautiful songs of the nightingale birds. The owners of this serene home definitely paid attention to detail with fine furnishings, stocked kitchen and plenty of comfortable linens. Most important to us was the electric heaters and great fireplace, since it did get chilly at night while we were there. They were very attentive to all our questions upon our arrival. They even provided additional firewood via a neighbor - so very kind. If you are going to the Galicia Region, this is the place to stay. BOOK NOW!

a little slice of heaven
We spent 3 days at this beautiful home... and of course, hated to leave. The house is absolutely amazing - stocked with everything you could possibly need for a comfortable and memorable stay, beautifully furnished, with breathtaking views of the sea and surrounding areas. The village/hamlet that the house is in is great for a quiet and relaxing getaway. The area around the house is great for hiking, photography, or just to take a walk within nature. Oh, and just when we thought it couldn't get any better, we saw wild horses! The town of Cedeira is a short drive from the house. There, you can find restaurants, bars, shopping and a grocery store (supermarket) with a wide selection of food items to purchase if you wish to cook at home (which we did for several meals). You won't want to leave!

Galician Idyll
There were 6 of us (3 couples) from the UK. We spent 2 weeks in this very lovely house. The location was superb with views over the sea. The house was well appointed with all that you could possibly need for a great holiday. Everything worked as it ought to and provided a fabulous base from which we could explore the immediate and wider locality of Northern Spain. The local walking is excellent through eucalyptus forests; wider afield there are coastal pathways overlooking magnificent scenery. The local town provides everything would need with good supermarkets, fresh food shops and of course plenty of fresh fish of all descriptions. We visited one or two of the restaurants and found them very good indeed. The local tourism office is extremely helpful. We should definitely come back another time.

Wonderful fortnight
We really enjoyed our fortnight stay at Lugar Pequeno, a wonderful house high in the hills above Cedeira. The views are magnificent and the afternoons and early evenings get lots of sunshine; all very quiet and peaceful. The property is well appointed and everything works! We brought our bikes with us and cycled every day - the roads are quiet and there are some great, though very hilly, rides in this part of Galicia. Stage 4 of the 2016 Vuelta came through Cedeira and finished above San Andres de Teixido, a sanctuary which is well worth a visit. Cedeira itself is a nice town, with lots of good cafes and restaurants. A Coruna is an hour or so away in the car and well worth a visit; we stayed there one night and then took the train to Santiago (30 minutes by train from A Coruna) for a short visit, an arrangement that worked well for us. So, five stars from us.

Lugar Pequeno: beautiful house, stunning views
The house is beautifully presented and very comfortable. We found that everything we needed for our stay was to hand. The views from the terrace across the garden to the ocean are magnificent. The location is peaceful but relatively accessible (car required, winding uphill road through forest). There are many beautiful beaches within a short drive, and the attractive town of Cedeira offers numerous cafes, bars and restaurants as well as shops, banks etc. Recommended.

Grand three level very modern house. Well equipped. Lovely views down the valley to the sea below (house is about 600' up above) and wide ranging coastal vista to headlands in the distance.

The house has stunning views over the surrounding area. This can be appreciated from multiple rooms in the house as well as when eating dinner in front of the house.

Ein Traumhaus
Unser Kurz-Urlaub hat uns sehr gefallen. Lugar pequeno ist wirklich ein Traumhaus… alles passt: die außergewöhnlich schöne romantische Lage oberhalb am Meer in naturbelassener Landschaft, die absolute Ruhe, die wunderschöne und überaus gelungene Haus- und Innen Architektur und vorbildlich gute Ausstattung. Galicia und Cedeira haben uns mit all seinen vielen Tabernas, köstlichen mariscos und pescado begeistert: die Leute sind besonders freundlich und hilfsbereit. Unsere abenteuerliche Wanderung und Ausflüge waren ebenso traumhaft wunderschön.

CASA EN UN SITIO ESPECTACULAR
La casa es tal cual se presenta, quizás incluso más bonita cuando llegas. Tiene todo lo necesario para pasar una estancia cómoda. No usamos la cocina, pero tiene todos los utensilios necesarios. El que tenga 3 baños al ser un grupo grande también se agradece. La comunicación con la propietaria fue muy fluida y no tuvimos inconvenientes. Por poner algún pero sería la falta de persianas o unas contras de madera, ya que al amanecer la claridad molesta un poco a algunos, yo estaba encantada con tanta luminosidad, pero no a todos les gusta. Merece la pena y volveríamos sin dudarlo. Las puestas de sol son un espectáculo sin igual.

Prachtig gelegen, heel fijn huis met zeer ruim uitzicht over de zee
De ligging van het huis is ongelooflijk mooi; uitkijkend over glooiend landschap naar de zee. Nog niet eerder in Spanje een huis gehuurd waarbij het uitzicht op zee zo weids was. Fijne, rustige stranden in de buurt. Huis is comfortabel en eveneens mooi en ruim. De sfeer in het huis is prettig en persoonlijk. Prachtig landschap, boodschappen op 5 minuten auto-afstand. Aardige eigenaren. Kortom: zeer fijn huis!!

Beautiful harmony and challenging activities in Galicia
For us it was well worth the long trip to Galicia and the wonderful house of Macarena located "at the end of the world". The mix of challenging activities eg. surfing, hiking and biking with relaxing moments in the peaceful and scenic village of Golmar was perfect for us. We´ll be back! /Olov with family from Sweden
