Welcome to La Casita

A home from home in rural Galicia
We are an Irish family who fell in love with this special corner of Spain. “Gra” means love in Irish, and that’s exactly what we want to share with our guests – our love of rural Galicia.
La Casita sits in its own large private garden in a tiny community of just six houses. Here you can watch the sunset over lush green fields, swing in the hammock, cook on the barbecue, or sit by the firepit under the stars. It is quiet, magical, and completely relaxing.
There are a range of stunning circular walks in the area, from 1.5 km to 15 km, and it’s wonderful for cycling too. Just a short drive away you’ll find towns with river walks, cafés, the historic city of Lugo, and beautiful beaches – we really are in the centre of a wonderful place.

  • Beautiful converted Galician barn with modern comforts

  • Sleeps up to 4 guests (Spanish king-size bed + sofa bed)

  • Large private garden with patio, hammock and firepit

  • Fully equipped kitchen and cosy lounge with log burner

  • Free high-speed WiFi and free private parking

Why Galicia?

Visiting Galicia is a must. This unique corner of north-west Spain has something for everyone and still feels wonderfully undiscovered.
Here you’ll find lush green countryside, dramatic Atlantic coastline, ancient forests, rivers, mountains and charming historic cities. Galicia is perfect for nature lovers, hikers, cyclists, beach lovers, foodies and anyone who wants to escape the crowds.
The people are warm and welcoming, the food is outstanding (think fresh seafood, local cheeses and excellent wines), and the pace of life is slower. Whether you want adventure or pure relaxation, Galicia will seduce you.

La Casita puts you right in the heart of it all — a peaceful rural house in Lugo province with easy access to the best of the region.

What incredible things can you do in Galicia?

There is almost too much to list, but here are some of the highlights within easy reach of your self-catering cottage:

  • Walk or cycle quiet country lanes and marked trails straight from the door
  • Visit the complete Roman Walls of Lugo (UNESCO World Heritage Site)
  • Spend a day on beautiful sandy beaches or the wild northern coast
  • Explore the dramatic canyons and vineyards of the Ribeira Sacra
  • Discover Celtic castros, monasteries and historic villages
  • Go birdwatching at Cospeito Lagoon or simply relax by a river
  • Day trip to Santiago de Compostela, A Coruña or the Cíes Islands
  • Enjoy local markets, traditional Galician food and friendly bars

 

Where is La Casita?

La Casita is located in the small rural community of Gaibor, in the municipality of Begonte, province of Lugo — right in the heart of Galicia (north-west Spain).
This area is known as part of “Green Spain” because of its beautiful rolling countryside and mild climate. It does rain here (that’s why everything is so green!), but sunny days are frequent and the landscape is stunning in every season. You are:

  • 12 km from the towns of Rábade and Vilalba
  • Only 25–30 minutes from the historic city of Lugo
  • Within easy reach of the coast and major attractions

Yet when you stand in the private garden you feel completely surrounded by nature and peace, perfect for slow days and starry nights.

Guest Reviews

This is the second time I’ve stayed over, and I know there will be many more. A charming place, it’s just magical!! I was born in Lugo and lived there until my teens, and after my parents sold the house I found La Casita to be able to return to my hometown. And I can assure that this accommodation makes you feel at home for sure!! It’s pet friendly (Trufa, our Weimaraner dog loved it). It’s at a perfect distance from Lugo city and the beach. It has a fully equipped kitchen, comfortable sofa, TV, a fireplace, spacious bathroom, and the bed is like sleeping on a cloud. Heavenly❤️ The best thing is the huge garden with many areas where you can relax, also, at night, the garden lights up with ambient lights. Waking up without the noise of the city also is a sweet deal if you ask me. Oh! Can’t forget, that above all, the host are so kind, sweet, and attentive to everything.

We loved it so much here !! Booked for 3 nights but wished we could have stayed longer. The accommodation is beautiful. Stylish, comfortable and such attention to detail – every little thing is gorgeous. Such great outdoor space too – very quiet and peaceful and that view ! At night we sat round the fire pit and looked at the stars – magical. The hosts are lovely – very welcoming and helpful but you have complete privacy. Can’t praise it enough – we have already booked again.

Firstly the hosts Aine and Gerri, sisters from Ireland, are so welcoming, nothing was too much bother. The casita and the setting are even nicer in real life. The welcome bottle of vino was appreciated and enjoyed! The bed was super comfy with the most luxurious bed linen. My family and I would highly recommend this casita and we will definitely be back

Tuani Greta, Italy

A beautiful tranquil place to stay and relax. The property is off the beaten track but what a find set in a glorious spot in the countryside The cottage is extremely well thought out and once you have done a little shop you will have everything you need, we stayed 4 nights. We are touring for a month in a small car and we were able to do our laundry for the next two weeks of our journey. Extremely good facilities. The outside space and garden is beautiful and a pleasure to sit in, we even managed to get into the hammock. Congratulations Aine and Gerri your place is amazing.
Pamela, Great Britian

La Casita is equipped with everything you need, from4 different types of coffee makers to a selection of pillows  – soft to firm!  The bed is incredibly comfortable, the shower is large and spacious, as is the bathroom.  In fact the whole house is much bigger than it seems in the photos.  But the best part is the garden, its incredible, a real zen feeling, magícal, quiet and the feeling of peace helps you to complely relax, espically when having a siesta in the hammock, just wonderul. 

Magdalena

Wonderful house, it has everything you need, the shower is amazing and the bed is super comfortable! We spent wonderful days in the peaceful garden enjoying eating outside in a beautiful area. It is very close to Vilalba and Lugo, in fact it is central to many places – cities and beaches.
