Illa do Artes is an eco escape, a regenerative agriculture and food forest farm and a centre of appreciation for nature’s treasures.
“We are a family run homestead that combines the values of permaculture with sustainable tourism.”
Changing the world is possible. Changing it together with you makes most sense.
As a young family of five in Galicia, the owners see the principles and values of permaculture as a way of life and they aim to help people to develop a better understanding of how to change their own lifestyle through inspiration into living a more connected, sustainable, responsible and healthy life in a modern World.
The farm Illa do Artes is set in natural bushland, crossed by a river and perched on the edge of uncrowded beaches… the region is a veritable playground for nature-and adventure lovers.
As well as producing its own electricity with solar and 100% recyclable salt water run batterie systems, the owners have established a self sufficient permaculture farm that combines an inspiring way of life with true charm and well being.
It’s a well-known fact that spending time in nature is good for your soul.
Thanks to the surrounding wilderness and native fauna, guests can reconnect with the natural world in an instant and escape the frantic pace of daily life.
Taking the time to savour the unique flavours and creations of vegetation during a stroll throughout the gardens and the forest is a must. A soothing natural ambiance permeates throughout the stunning grounds whilst a fruit orchard and a food forest form the centrepiece of this magnificent retreat.
Let’s meet up in real life to share in the beauty of the natural world at Illa do Artes.
