🏞️Bouzafria Cascade - Vigo - Pontevedra - Galicia - Spain🇪🇸

📷GoPro Hero5 - ISO 100 - f/2,8 15 sec - ND Filter

🏞️Bouzafria is very close to where I live, just about 4 kilometres from Vigo’s downtown, in Bembrive. The river Eifonso forms the cascade with a fall of almost 4 meters.

🏙️Vigo is located on the Northwest of Spain, in Galicia, it is one of largest and most important fishing ports🎣 in all Europe🇪🇺 and is known for its freezing and canning industry🏭.

🏘️The name Vigo comes from the Latin word Vicus Spacorum (Small Village). The city is built over a hill-fort (Castro) and a Roman settlement. During the Middle Ages the small village🏘️ of Vigo was a part of the neighbouring towns, mainly Tui. Finally on the 15th century, Vigo was considered a real village but in the 16th and 17th centuries, the city was attacked⚔️ several times. Around 1578 the town had a population of 868, but the plague🐀 and the pirates🏴‍☠️ destroyed the town and killed almost all the people. In 1585 and 1589 the town was attacked by the English admiral (a pirate or corsair) Sir Francis Drake🏴‍☠️, he temporary occupied it and he left many buildings burnt🔥. In 1702 a British-Dutch fleet under Sir George Rooke and James Butler, Duke of Ormonde, destroyed a Franco-Spanish fleet in the bay during the Battle of Rande🧭.

🕛In the 19th century, the French🇫🇷 troops conquered⚔️ Vigo, but the popular resistance ended with the reconquest of the city and the French Army was expelled🛡️ from Vigo on 28 March 1809. It was the first city of Galicia to be freed from the French🇫🇷 rule.

❓Did you know that the first stapler was produced for the French king Louis XV in the 18th century but it was actually made in the Basque Country? The royal stapler was hand-made and came with a set of staples bearing the royal emblem on them.

"Lovely clean neat place. Well stocked and had everything we needed. Quiet neighbourhood. Homeowners lovely, friendly and welcoming."

"It was a nice accommodation, very friendly hosts and a beautiful surrounding neighbourhood."

"Well appointed apartment, with balcony views over the river to Vigo, loads of space for a family, good facilities. Short walk to Cangas town, which though looked a little scruffy round the edges, we really liked - great atmosphere, loads going on and the ferry to Vigo is really easy to use."

Beach nearby, sun loungers, beach towels

"The villa more than lived up to expectations. Our family group of up to 10 people at one stage had plenty of space to relax, while the pool was a real hit with the children, as indeed was the table tennis table when the adults let them near it. The nearby beaches were superb and having a fun pizzeria within 5 minutes stroll was an added bonus. "

"Mi experiencia ha sido totalmente nula! El mismo día del ingreso en el alojamiento nos la han cancelado porque ya había otro inquilino, a pesar de estar pagado. Todo esto ha sido mientras ya estabamos de viaje y con 2 niñas pequeñas; nos encontramos cerca de Vigo (que era nuestro destino) sin alojamiento y no nos dieron ninguna alternativa. HORRIBLE!!"

"Todo muy bien excepto la limpieza del alojamiento "

"Close to Vigo and some beaches, but in the tranquility of a small little village. Would absolutely stay again, great host! Easy going and accommodating in any way!"

"We had a splendid stay. The house was just as described. All amenities described were provided. The owner, Filipe, is very responsive and helpful with any questions. We had no issues. We enjoyed the peacefulness yet close to town. As for the driveway from precious comments, yes it is steep, but we had no issues at all! We followed Felipe’s advice and we were fine."

"Nice spacious house with friendly owner. The last 50 meters of the road to the house were at bit challenging for us from the Netwho are used to a flat country but after a few days we got used to it the Netherlands who are used to a flat country the Netherlands who"

"Julian’s place is stunning. The house itself is great- very pretty and plenty of outside areas to sit. The setting is amazing in a lovely, peaceful forest but only 10 mins from the village. The highlights for us were the pool which was great in August and the peace and quiet the setting offered. "

"The property was spacious and impeccably clean. It was beautifully decorated. There were several places to gather for meals. The garden was gorgeous with a table for 5-6 in the yard. Thank you for your hospitality"

Modern and Spacious

"Very friendly staff at reception. Well sized and presented room with all the features you would expect. Underground parking available at an adjacent public car park with a separate marked area for the Hotel allowing access straight from the car park to the Hotel. I only had breakfast and not an evening meal but the restaurant was superb with interesting views of the port."
