Why We Love It | Its simple and clean design and the respect of the natural environment.
Casa Maceira is surrounded by forest and from any room you can enjoy this natural views.

The main house is a small accommodation for up to four people.
But there’s also a little cabin with lovely mountain views and with a maximum capacity for 3 people.
The space welcomes couples or couples with kids.

Where did the idea for this accommodation come from?
When I discovered this place, I felt that it was the ideal place to build a home and start a new life stage.
The peace that is breathed, the calm that it transmits, the mountains, the vegetation, the river, was what I was looking for.
After more than two decades traveling as decorator and window dresser in the inditex group, I decided to make this change in my life and carry out this tourism project.
In Casa Maceira, childhood memory of living in nature is immediately recovered, the lost smells, the change of seasons, the calm, not worrying about schedules and relaxing from obligations.
JOÃO CARLOS
Who are you? Why did you decide to create Casa Maceira?
I’m João Carlos.
I have decided to set up this tourism project with my partner, to change my life after working for more than 20 years at Inditex as a decorator and window dresser.
The entire interior of the accommodation is designed and decorated by me, it is my essence.
What is the identity of the brand?
In Casa Maceira, childhood memory of living in nature is immediately recovered, the lost smells, the change of seasons, the tranquility, not worrying about schedules and relaxing from obligations.
These feelings are what I want to transmit to people who want to spend a few days in our house.
You will surely find your own reasons to feel at home and enjoy an unforgettable vacation.
Why do you think your accommodation shares the Atlantic Culture?
Our accommodation is surrounded by nature, in a rural setting, near the mouth of the Miño River in the Atlantic Ocean and near the fishing port of A Guarda.
The town where our accommodation is located is a pilgrimage center as the San Campio de Lonxe Sanctuary is located.
We always recommend to our guests the typical gastronomy of Galicia, as well as the places of cultural interest of our land, also supporting the small artisans who are in our area.
Why is your accommodation different, what makes it unique?
Everything in Casa Maceira is taken care of to the maximum, being ourselves the ones who take care of every detail and the attention of our guests, personally attending to their needs within our possibilities.
We achieve this by living in a part of the house, that is why the accommodation itself is a home and that is what we want to transmit.
What additional services do you offer?
The farm has a swimming pool with magnificent views, with a common area where you can rest, relax quietly and have breakfast.
There are various species of native trees and shrubs, as well as a small stream.
We have respected the environment to the maximum so that you feel in the middle of nature
