There are actually 3 restaurants owned by the same people all along the side of each other and all 3 are excellent. The 1st is Tapas Bar and gets very lively. You need to arrive here before 7-7:30 otherwise you have to queue for a seat! The Bodega is really a traditional bar but is very small. The 3rd section which is the corner unit is the by far the largest and most expensive as it is the high end restaurant but food is amazing so don't expect bargains here!

Sightseeing

Old castle ruin that was renovated in the 1980s and now offers a great view from it's vantage point. Spring and Summer times there are concerts here with big acts including "Simply Red" in 2016. The beach next to the castle is a great place for families including surfing when the conditions are right.

Entertainment & Activities

Water Parks are always great for younger families but arrive early as it gets very busy and they limit the number of people they allow in. It is only 15 minutes drive from the house, so getting there early is not too much of a problem!
