Details
Description
feel the magic sensation of a very old and wild land in the middle of an area called "ribeira sacra".
in a familiar and artistic life, in the old house of the count (500 years old and 600 square meter house).
we are right now 6 persons living in this house, an open family that remained from a community that lived here during 80s and 90s, but old and new friends are always coming because this is a big, quiet house, with lots of space for people and projects.
we are also quiet people and nature lovers, travellers, artists and musicians.

We try to live in a self-sufficient way and we have experience in country life and natural health. we cultivate our food and also prepare natural cosmetic and health products.
we are still repairing the old parts of the house.
And we also want to carry out own audiovisual artistic projects (specially music).
our guest can help us and learn from all, also language exchange.
we like to learn every day and bit by bit we want to give more life to this huge house turning it into a coliving and art space, in a naturefriendly way of course.
