Pazo do Castro takes its name from the village in which it is situated and which was the most important town in medieval Valdeorras. Don Pedro de Losada y Quiroga ordered the house and its chapel to be built in the year 1630. More than three centuries later, the house, now declared a building of artistic historical interest, has been restored for tourism with all the comforts of a luxury hotel. |

Without leaving Pazo de Castro, one can enjoy different informative activities because the library is ideal for a quiet read; the coaching museum contains carriages that date back to the 17 C. The harnesses and antique coaching gear and other mementoes invite the guest to take a walk back in time. The covered pool allows the visitor to take a dip at any time or season. The garden boasts historic box hedges and the large stretch of meadowland adjacent to the house is great for walking or cycling trips. You can even explore the surrounding countryside by quad cars or go canoeing on the River Sil. Take a trip on a Catamaran or try potholing or paraglidin |
