Location
The location is on the edge of a rural village in the council of Sober, in the heart of the Ribeira Sacra region. The main village of Sober is located at 3 km from the property (4 minutes by car). The charming medieval town of Monforte de Lemos is located at approximately 10 minutes by car from the property (9 km). This lively town offers all necessary amenities and services, such as a hospital, hypermarkets, all kind of local shops, banks, schools, bars and restaurants, etc.

During the Middle Ages, Monforte de Lemos became an important town in Galicia. Here you can still find many interesting historical monuments. Worth visiting are for example the huge 17th century building of Nuestra Señora de Antigua (well known as El Cardenal, with some paintings of El Greco in a museum), the monastery of San Vicente do Pino and the medieval castle and palace of the counts of Lemos (today a “Parador” state owned hotel), the old Jewish quarter, the convent of “Las Clarisas” with an important museum of sacred art, and the lovely medieval bridge over the river Cabe.
