Description:
TRADITIONAL GALICIAN COUNTRY HOUSE The Parador of the historical town of Tui,
on the border with Portugal, faithfully reproduces a rural Galician country
house, in a setting with mountains and rivers. This establishment is ideal for
sports lovers and for outdoor activities. With its granite walls, Galician
chestnut- wood floors, ceilings, beams and staircases, it recreates the
decoration of the typical local country houses. The soft shades of the walls and
the rustic furniture achieve a friendly and peaceful atmosphere in the
comfortable bedrooms. It also has a splendid swimming pool and a beautiful
garden. In the dining room it is possible to sample succulent lamprey and
delicious elvers 'a la tudense' (seasonal). A typical dessert is Tarta San Ero.
Moreover, we have an agreement with the Nautical Club, so that all boats may
dock onto a fairly large wharf. The prices and availability will have previously
been checked with the Parador.
The island of the eternal spring, thanks to its unequalled climate, offers enormous contrasts and a wide variety of landscapes in its different areas...
