Green Spain |
Northern Spain could be entitled
the real Spain - because it is unspoilt by mass tourism.
In addition, unbelievably, the entire population speak Spanish.
Green
Spain - this green and handsome land stretching
from Bilbao to La Coruna about 300 miles, has such a varied
landscape from the breathtaking Picos mountains and National
Park of Cantabria to the fiord like rivers that flow from
the mountains of Galicia to the sea. The region offers such
a depth of styles in architecture, landscape and the very
people who all retain a mystic celtic connection with Breton
and Irish traditions.
In
the map below we have highlighted, in shades of green, the
areas in which we offer holiday accommodation in Northern
Spain. The area known as "Galicia" covers La Caruna;
Logo and Ponte Vedra. Our Pyrenees properties are in the
regions of Navarra and La Rioja. We have organised our site
into these geographic areas and you can click
on the respective green area of the map that interests
you to see the properties we have on offer.
In
addition to our properties in Northern Spain we have some
properties in the "Minho" region of Northern Portugal,

Galicia
which is made up of La Caruna, Ponte Vedra and Lugo offers superb
scenery, wide open beaches and a is reminiscent of a warm Fjord
in Norway - with the hills and valleys, there are many vineyards
producing top quality wines such as the Albarino whites.
Asturias
and Cantabria are famous for the wonderful scenery of
the breathtaking Picos mountains and National Park of Cantabria.
The coast line has some large sandy beaches and the seafood is second
to none! we offer a wide selection of accommodation close to Suances,
Comillas, Llanes, Potes and Ribadesella.
La
Rioja and Navarra are in the northern Pyrenees and
offer wide open spaces, hills and vineyards of the famous Rioja
wines. Part of the area is in the infamous Basque region constantly
at odds over independence by separatists however away from
San Sebastian there is very little risk to tourists.
