Description of property
This well-maintained stone house sits just outside Arbo, a peaceful village in southern Galicia near the Miño River and the Portuguese border. It’s a manageable, easy-to-live-in home that combines rural charm with practicality — ideal for those looking to settle into Galician life without taking on a large property.

📍 Location & Access

1 hour 30 minutes to Porto Airport (Portugal)

Climate & Local Life
Arbo benefits from a mild inland climate — warmer and drier than the Galician coast, but without the extreme summer heat of southern Spain. The area is known for its Albariño wine, local food festivals, and relaxed pace of life close to nature.
Why We Love It
It’s a solid, honest house in a peaceful setting — easy to maintain, well connected, and with just enough outdoor space to grow vegetables, sit under a fruit tree, or plan something special. We love the simplicity, the views, and the feeling of being close to both Galicia and Portugal. A great option for someone who wants to slow down — without giving up comfort or access.
