It is peaceful with stunning valley views yet very close to the shops and restaurants of the quiet town of Mondariz. Mondariz is south east Vigo and Pontevedra, Vigo being the closer. It is 35 minutes by car from the glorious Rias Baixas beaches and close to the border of Portugal. It is very easy to combine your holiday in Galicia with a trip to Porto. Perhaps you will fly there and spend a few days in the beautiful, vibrant city before arriving at Casa Carballo. The Rias Baixas are a series of four estuarine inlets, the Ria de Muros e Noia, the Ria de Arousa, the Ria de Pontevedra and the Ria de Vigo. The Rias are rich in marine life and are beautiful to explore. They boast more towns, villages and restaurants than other stretches of the Galician coast. Guests will enjoy superb seafood and can visit the lovely towns of Pontevedra and Vigo as well as the quaint albarino wine capital Cambados and trips to the offshore islands. The Rias Baixes beaches are stunning with a good range of watersports on the larger beaches and peace and intimacy on the hidden little coves. Though chilly, the waters are generally calm. Playa de la Lanzada, one of Galicia’s best beaches offers over 3km of dazzling white sand and clear blue sea backed by stunning dunes. The sky lights up in all shades of pink, orange and red at sunset. The picturesque Playa Area das Pipas enjoys delightful rocks and tide pools and is lined with fragrant pine trees. The beaches on Illas Cies are spectacular. Pontevedra is a beautiful, well-preserved old town. Brimming with beautiful buildings, interlocking narrow lanes and picturesque plazas, it combines history, culture and style. It is a great place to shop, dine and sightsee. The town’s Gothic Santa Maria la Mayor Basilica is stunning. Cambados, the capital of the albarino wine country, is actually a fusion of three medieval villages, Fefinans at the north end of town, Cambados proper in the middle and the fishing quarter of Santo Tome in the south. It is comprised of ancient streets lined with beautiful stone architecture and sprinkled with inviting taverns and restaurants. Sanxenxo is often called the ‘Marbella of Galicia’ and boasts a busy leisure port, a long attractive waterfront and lots of tourist amenities and restaurants. You will mostly find Spanish holidaymakers in Sanxenxo. A popular place to visit is Ermita de San Sebastian on the Isla de la Toja. It is a dreamy place with millions of scallop shells adorning its beautiful little church. You may also want to look at the famous Camino de Santiago pilgrimage trail and Santiago de Compostela. This interesting city enjoys magnificent stone architecture and a famous cathedral. The skirl of bagpipes Page 4 might make you think you are in Scotland. The town’s charming restaurants and bars specialise in fine delicious Galician seafood and local wines.

DRAFT Prologue to Mondariz, Vigo, Santiago. this delightful book gives a wonderful insight into the Edwardian tourist industry and the early promotion of the treasures of galicia in Britain. it points not only to the wonderful cultural and natural heritage on offer but emphasises the quality of the experience and in particular the hospitality received by visitors to Mondariz. Wind the clock forward one hundred years or so and we find the treasures are still ex- tant though the competition for tourism has increased substantially across the globe. From my own experience a recent stay at Balneario de Mondariz perfectly encapsulates all the favourable comments reflected in this book. the conservation of the cultural and natural heritage is of fundamental importance to the well-being of society. the national trust in England, Wales and northern ireland, a non-governmental organisation founded in 1895, is an exemplar in this respect, having today over 4 million members and employing 6000 staff and over 70,000 volunteers. its properties receive over 19 million visitors each year. in galicia the beginnings of such an organisation, in this case tesouros de galicia, is a brilliant and much needed concept and the hope is that, in time, it will spread to the whole of Spain.

Fiz Fernández Pérez Luis Fariña Busto AGRADECIMIENTOS Cuando se empiezan a escribir los agradecimientos de una tesis uno parece enfrentarse a una disyuntiva difícil: optar por una versión corta, más profesional, donde sólo aparezcan aquellos directamente relacionados con el trabajo, o decantarse por una versión larga, donde inevitablemente se hace un repaso de los años pasados en la facultad, pero también fuera de ella. Después de bastante pensar, me he decidido por la segunda opción por una razón muy sencilla: no creo que vuelva a presentar una tesis nunca más, de modo que debo aprovechar esta oportunidad para dejar por escrito mi agradecimiento a todos aquellos que aprecio.
