In the organiser's words
Quoted from ocastroartvillage.com and checked on 31 August 2026. This is the organiser's description, reproduced as captured. It has not been through the evidence checks that produced the figures above.
O Castro welcomes artists, writers, researchers, thinkers, and creative practitioners of all disciplines for stays of flexible duration, from two weeks to two months. The residency is self-funded: residents cover the cost of their own stay. In return, you get space, solitude, community, and a landscape that inspires you to create your next great work. You will live in a climate-controlled geodesic dome with a full bathroom, surrounded by forest.
Dinners are often prepared and shared collectively using fresh local produce. Wine comes from a vineyard below your feet. You will have access to a gorgeous studio loft on site, high speed internet, the daily rhythm of an active creative community, film screenings, forest walks, hammocks on hilltops, a vibrant community of creatives, and the chance to engage with the local rural communities of the Ribeira Sacra. There is no prescribed outcome.
