Calma Nordica

• Sleeps: 6 (+1)
• Bedrooms: 3
• Bathrooms: 2
• Minimum stay: 2-4 nights

Bordered by Portugal to the south, and the Atlantic Ocean to the west, Galicia is an untamed region of northwest Spain that’s characterised by soaring mountains and shimmering coastal rias.

You’ll find Calma Nórdica privately and mesmerisingly positioned amongst the Galician wilderness, boasting views over the A Capelada mountain range and the Ortiguiera estuary, for a soul-soothing stay that’s breath-takingly scenic.

The unique retreat itself is inspired by the barns of northern Europe, which provide comfort and relaxation whilst letting the landscape speak loudly for itself.

Expertly crafted from pine and glass, there’s a welcoming openness to Calma Nórdica that ushers the outside in… particularly as you cook up mouth-watering creations in the island kitchen, from fresh ingredients picked from the orchard.

(You’ll also be welcomed with a delicious basket of goodies, direct from a local artisan bakery, for your first morning’s breakfast).

Choose from a double and a twin bedroom on the ground floor, where you’ll also find an elegant family bathroom, and a spacious living and dining area decorated in fresh, neutral tones. There’s plenty of butter-soft seating to relax in, and a sleek pellet stove to warm up winter evenings.

Head upstairs to discover a stunning en-suite double room, complete with its very own dressing room, and a gym with an elliptical bike, for those who don’t want to skimp on their exercise routines even when they’re on holiday!

More information

If you prefer getting lost in a good book, don’t worry: there’s also a gloriously comfy reading area on the first floor, with squishy seating and magnificent views of the estuary.

Welcome the blazing sunset with drinks on the patio, which overlooks a multilevel infinity garden strewn with scenic terraces, and where you’ll find a field of whispering apple trees that bloom in late spring.

What to do with the rest of your holiday time? You’re achingly close to the best surfing beaches in Galicia, or how about donning your binoculars for rare birdwatching in the estuary’s conservation area?

There’s a wealth of cycling routes to discover, too, and plenty of seafood restaurants in the nearby fishing villages of Cedeira and Cariño…

…though you’ll also find some restaurants will deliver freshly-prepared dishes straight to your new-found sanctuary at Calma Nórdica, meaning you won’t have to move so much as a muscle if you don’t want to.
