For escapists, wannabe writers and lovers of rural bliss: two boho hideaways for two (four at a squeeze) in this lush corner of Galicia

Read guest comments

Nothing but birdsong and a local dog or two will disturb your peace. Wend your way up to this old granite cattle shed, perched on top of a hill with long valley views and crack open your bottle of wine from Magdalena’s vineyard. She has cleverly revived both spaces which are next door to each other and have vaulted ceilings– one an upside down space with big windows framing lovely views and a sofa bed should you want to enlarge your party, the other has a little balcony and a wood-burner, and single beds that can be arranged in different ways depending on the guests. There’s a town nearby for supplies and you’re just 10 km from Portugal. Visit hot springs, go wine tasting, Santiago de Compostela is a 90-minute drive. Magdalena (energetic, well-travelled, excellent English) will happily organise stuff for you to do.

Local points of interest from Magdalena Paramés:

Punti d'interesse locali da
Magdalena Paramés:

  • Walk the 18 km, or just any of the short paths, of the Sendeiro das Fragas e Levadas dos ríos Calvo e Deva. Moss, woods, old mills...
  • Torgo is the delicious albariño wine produced next door. Tasting a couple of vintages as you enjoy the spectacular views in the vineyard where it comes from is an experience not to be missed.
  • Every now and then a food and wine event is organised in our vineyard. Take part at our wine tastings or any of the meetings we organise to enjoy local wine and food.
  • Relax in any of the nearby natural hot springs and spas, especially during autumn and winter cool days. Don't miss Termas de Outariz and Prexigueiro, Mondariz Balneario or Portuguese Melgaço and Monção spa baths. All less than half an hour from A Pampla.
  • Be a local...or learn the basics to become one. Take a Spanish course right here and you will feel closer to our culture. Learn how to order your drink at the bar, what to eat and when - a real immersion in the Spanish language and culture.
  • Not only countryside: one hour and a half to Santiago de Compostela, an hour or less to Pontevedra, Combarro, Vigo, Baiona, Tui, Ponte de Lima (Portugal), Valença (Portugal), Allariz, Ourense. Even closer Ribadavia, or Portuguese Monção and Melgaço.

"Staying at A Pampla resulted in the best vacation of our lives and, we vacation a lot. Our stay here included language immersion, cultural experience and accommodations. Every morning there were pastries or breads awaiting us before our Spanish class. After class Magdalena arranged cultural and food and wine experiences that were spectacular and fun. She and Javier spent much time with us immersing us in the language and Gallego culture. They are such generous, kind and fun people. Word limitation prohibits me from going on but, if you are thinking of staying here, stop thinking and go."

"A Pampla is a really lovely little cottage, ideal for two people. It is very comfortable (although the sofa bed in the lounge would be better if it were just a sofa!) The views are splendid and rather impressive. Magdalena and Javier are delightful and very helpful hosts who leave you to do what you want to do but are always ready to answer any questions that you may have. They are very thoughtful and, when we arrived after quite a long drive, they gave us a jar of homemade soup and some Portuguese breads (which are amazing) to get us started. We loved the place and recommend it to anyone."

"We stayed one week in La Pampla and we enjoyed every minute of it. The stone cottage was outside real authentic and inside it was simple but beautiful furnished. I felt right away at home. Also the kitchen was very well equiped. And the quet rural surroundings were beautiful. And also was the vineyard. Magdalena and Gavi were very nice hosts and their wine was excellent. Unfortunately we did not see so much of Gavi but with Magdalena we had long interesting talks. She helped us with everything and more. It was such a pleasure to stay there that we regretted to leave.

"One of our favourite vacation spots ever. A perfect combination of a relaxing cozy vibe, in a peaceful property, surrounded by a vineyard with a magnificent view ! Doesn't get much better! Fantastic hosts who helped with everything we needed but also respected our privacy. All this and great wine as well. Certainly, we would love to go back to this low key cottage, which was equipped with everything we needed to cook and read about the area. Magdalena and Havee are lovely hosts and we wish them well in the future."
