Our villas are in the tiny village of Roo de Abaixo, which sits in the Ria de Muros y Noia region. Ideally situated to access the delights of Galicia.
We really want you to have a holiday to remember at our villas. They are the perfect places to relax, unwind and get in tune with the Galician Way!
Both our houses are rural and set in the beautiful green countryside of Galicia. Their rural settings offer stunning views and an abundance of wildlife to enjoy.
At the heart of each house is a desire to provide the visitor with a space in which to unwind. These classic stone houses have been renovated to provide modern comfort in this old land. They are the perfect retreats for quality family time and peaceful thoughts.
Both gardens have private pools where one can simply drift away whilst watching the eagles above or listening to the mountain stream below.

Explore the Galician coastline and you will discover many wonderful, white sanded beaches. The rugged coastline has evolved over the centuries to form an abundance of “Rias”. These estuaries harbour the beautiful pristine beaches of the region, protected from the vastness of the Atlantic.

Further Details
Roo de Abaixo is a tiny village and the locals are lovely. Be sure to say "Hola!" to them at any given opportunity! Listen out for fireworks that signal a fiesta or for the church bells that signal a special occasion.
Noia is only a 10 minute drive from the house and forms a gateway to the fantastic beaches on the south side of the estuary. It has a twice weekly (Thurs/Sun) morning market with local produce. Here you can sample traditional Galician fare before buying. Wonderful home made liquors and wines, cheeses, chorizo and an array of other products are available.
In the evening, it has a gentile atmosphere, restaurants, cafes , shops, bars, eateries, discos, cobbled streets and a milling of generations make it a very pleasant stopover as you return from your day at the beach.
Head North from the house and 20 minutes later you arrive at the fishing port of Muros, smaller than Noia, it too has a pleasant ambience especially at sunset when the fishing boats are arriving with their daily catch. You can pick up your BBQ requirements very cheaply here and then enjoy a drink in the local bars or an evening meal. On the road to Muros you will spot many signs for ‘Playas’ (Beaches).
