In one of the most beautiful and endearing ports of Galicia, the Puerto do Barqueiro, border in the Rias Altas between La Coruña and Lugo, separated by the Ría marisquera del Sor, this charismatic property with thick stone walls, postcard portrait; With its blue balconies of a marine fort and built at the beginning of the last century but recently renovated with care and careful detail, it was once a refuge for tough countrymen from the sea, and today, a refuge for wandering travelers who gaze at the sea.
A house with a secret: a cave!

The space
On the first line, at the foot of the Port, tireless watchman of the few fishing boats that still work among sharp coastal rocks and cliffs, sea entrances and exits, beaches and white sand coves, shelters this tiny but protected corner from the fury of the a sea to the North beyond Cape Estaca de Bares,
Out there, lands and coasts in other Celtic times, rest in calm times a spectacular marine environment, clean and transparent water, with its people and customs, its fishermen and shellfish, passers-by who admire preserved customs, or acquire its fruits that the fish market offers after a night shift. Others savor these catches in port restaurants.
Restaurants with careful cuisine such as Sobreposta, the authentic Talino Bar; central tavern in the series with Emma Suarez “NEBOA”, with her coffee from Pota, or La Marina; restaurant and family pension, Puerto do Barqueiro or higher up with incredible views, La Goleta, is a micro-world in itself

Walking, we cross the river Sor through a pedestrian iron bridge, also called "A Vella Ponte" declared a Site of Cultural Interest, designed in 1880 and built a year later than the property, in 1901. It was here that the inhabitants of both sides of the shore, left the boats as the only means of connecting both municipalities. On the other side, just under the bridge, begins one of the most beautiful and long beaches of white sand, crystal waters, calm and protected; "Arealonga". Kilometers of beach that joins at its end, the first fishing village on the Lucense coast, “O Vicedo”.

Puerto do Baqueiro, today would still serve as the perfect setting for those endearing filming of old Vittorio De Sica films, with Marcello Mastrollani and the spectacular Sofia Loren, but now, one can rewrite their own history, or simply observe from their balcony, sitting in calm in front of the sea, while we submerge little by little between pages of those books that we always hope will accompany us on vacation.
