At the
picturesque, windswept tip of Baleal stands one of the area's most unique accommodation
options. Three sisters inherited this imposing house from their parents and divided it into
three parts - each of which now serves as its own little

have great close-up sea views, and the sound of the breaking waves below is magical.
Downstairs sitting areas are extremely cosy and the entire place is loaded with character.
The breakfast in the middle one (II) is especially delicious. Worth reserving ahead.
