Alastair Sawday’s Special Places to Stay 2006"...Looking at first sight like a large private villa it has simple uncluttered rooms which are given a strikingly individual flavour by the addition of modern paintings and Moroccan appliqué lamps. Each room has its own small area of terrace and opens onto a glorious central courtyard; take breakfast out here amongst the mimosa and pomegranates. The beaches in the area are magnificent – some of the most unspoilt on the Atlantic coast but if surfing, swimming or sunbathing don’t appeal then you can wander among the dunes and umbrella pines of the National Park, follow the watchtowers along the coast and look down at the sea to Cape Trafalgar scene of Nelson’s last, great battle.” |
