Mer is a small rural community in green Spain. Rural Galicia a place where you can still step out of your house / accommodation with all creature comforts (incl. Internet) and enter the middle ages.

Mer / Sober near the confluence of the rivers Sil and Mino offers breathtaking views, a diverse landscape as well as a sweet water beach nearby. On a rainy day - yes it does rain here, that's why it is "green" - head for Orense and dip into one of the public hot springs / bath - how "cool" is that.

Mer & Sober are within the "Ribeira Sacra" a famous vine growing area. The red's and whit's are not only smooth and dry, they are still affordable as well. "Tappas" - the late afternoon snacks - offered with your drink to bridge the gap to the late dinner are offered in every bar.

"Fiestas" - All summer long there are fiestas nearly every weekend in one of the surrounding villages. Latin rhythm and dancing under star light is guaranteed.

From watching cows getting milked , market days to classical concerts Mer / Sober let you dip into a different pace and style of life.

No, you wont get bored! Monforte, Lugo, Orense and Santiago de Compostella between them offer something for everyone.

Oh, did I mention if you need a place to stay - Life in Galicia -.
