Our Neighbourhood

Pontevedra has a quiet small-town atmosphere (85.000 inhabitants). It boasts one of the largest and most elegant historic old city in the whole of Galicia. "Old quarter" (pedestrian) extends in a network of streets and squares with typical stone houses and historical civic and religious buildings, where walking and eating typical "tapas" is a pleasure. It is 5 minutes walking from our apartment.

SANTIAGO DE COMPOSTELA is only 65 km (40 minutes) from Pontevedra, with motorway, train, bus and airplane connections.

Another airports close to Pontevedra: Vigo, Oporto.

In the second week of August there is a big Festival in Pontevedra, with a lot of free concerts and a lot of fun.
