Welcome home

A stone house with the soul of Galicia

O Rincón de Esther was born from an old farmhouse in Vedra that we lovingly restored, preserving its stone, chestnut wood and timeless calm.

Here you wake up with mist over the valley and fall asleep to the silence of the countryside. We are a step away from the Ulla river, surrounded by oak groves, and just twenty minutes from Santiago — the best of both worlds, nature and historic city.

Perfect as a base to visit Santiago without giving up the peace of the countryside. Room Robledal was impeccable, with that bathtub by the window.
