VERY NEAR THE SEA
The Pazo de Trave is situated on a hillock that dominates the Landro
Valley, from the Viveiro estuary to the Xistral mountain range in the
Viveiro parish of Galdo. This county of A Mariña, which harmonizes the
rich history of heraldic Galicia with the dynamism of its small towns,
offers enormous cultural, gastronomic and wildlife possibilities for the
visitor to these lands.
A NOBLE REMINDER
The original tower of the Pazo dates from the XV Century and is perfectly
conserved. The construction is in a U shape and boasts an interior patio,
a walled estate and a garden. Outside the walled enclosure, the visitor
can find a wood with vegetation indigenous to the area. Each of the rooms
is named after one of the family ancestors or a person of noble ranking
from the history of Viveiro, that was somehow linked to the manor house.

WHAT YOU CAN DO
Situated in the small hamlet of Galdo, the manor house possesses a wood
full of indigenous vegetation which is ideal for walking tours and the
study of wild animals and plants. Without leaving its domain one can enjoy
reading in the library, admiring its painting collection or the exhibition
of heraldic shields that are self explicit concerning the history enacted
within these walls.
Owing to their proximity and beauty, an obligatory visit is to the
Valdeflores Monastery or the Romanesque San Pedro church. Contact with the
Cantabrian coast is less than 3 kms away from the house, where the visitor
can find fine sandy beaches and clear water.
