Stately stone manor house in Antas de Ulla

Historic manor in the Ulloa region, living heritage in the heart of Galicia

This fantastic property is located in a traditional village just 6 km from Antas de Ulla, 11 km from Palas de Rei and 65 km from Santiago de Compostela. Located in the geographic center of Galicia, the estate forms part of a unique architectural ensemble, where a magnificent pazo and several large stone houses create a village that seems frozen in time.

The manor faithfully represents the finest example of a stately farmhouse. Its construction reveals it belonged to a very wealthy family, evidenced by its large dimensions, the quality of its materials and the presence of architectural elements uncommon in the area. The complex sits on 775 m² of total surface area, with multiple buildings distributed around two large courtyards that structure all domestic and agricultural life.

Traditional Galician architecture with unique stately spaces

The main residence of 615 m² built distributes its spaces across two floors connected by an elegant granite staircase with turned wooden balustrade. The structure perfectly preserves all traditional construction elements: stone masonry walls, renovated tile roofs and chestnut wood beam structure that bring character and nobility to each room.

Functional ground floor with kitchen and various auxiliary spaces

The ground floor houses a traditional kitchen, several old stables that preserve their original layout, and a perfectly preserved cellar. Notable is the access to the first interior courtyard, where there is a large traditional wood-fired oven, washhouse, drinking trough and the large granite columns that support the alpendre roof.

Upper floor with spacious central hall

Going up the main staircase leads to a very spacious hall from which all rooms are distributed: a large dining room, four bedrooms of different sizes and a gallery with views to the interior courtyard where there is a bathroom. The wooden beam ceilings and wide plank floors preserved in perfect condition bring authenticity and warmth to all spaces.

Unique heritage elements and auxiliary buildings

The complex includes auxiliary buildings of extraordinary heritage value. In the first courtyard is the large alpendre with granite columns and a traditional dovecote, while the second courtyard houses the aira (threshing area) perfectly preserved with its enormous stone slabs and another large alpendre-garage with modern stables.

The jewel of the complex is the spectacular traditional Galician hórreo, in quite good state of preservation with its characteristic columns and stone structure with cross finial. This element represents one of the most beautiful examples of Galician ethnographic heritage and confirms the historical importance of this grand farmhouse.
