GUIDED VISIT TO LA CASA DE PALLA

Mas la Llum: the largest legalized straw house in Spain. Discover it with us!

Through this experience you will discover all the corners of Mas la Llum, an ecological, bioclimatic and completely self-sufficient rural ecotourism house, self-built with “jumbo” straw bales, wood and mud. This straw house was built in 2011 for Marta, Xavi and their children with the aim of starting a new way of living, more responsible, conscious and in harmony with nature. However, in 2017, the estate suffered a devastating fire that forced the family to start from scratch and build a new one.

Now, Marta and Xavi tell us, from their own experience, what it’s like to live in a sustainable, self-managed and energy-sufficient house.

During the visit you will discover several key aspects of the Casa de Palla, such as:How bioclimatic design self-regulates the interior temperature while providing comfort and energy savings”“how natural resources are self-managed in a sustainable way”, “how rainwater is recovered“, “how compost is made with organic waste“, etc.

It is an experience that aims to inspire all people to live sustainably. Don’t miss it!
