Residencies — Creative residencies at a rural coliving an hour from Madrid

Come work on your craft from a tiny village an hour from Madrid — and help bring it back to life.

Sierra de San Vicente

Trade your skills for a soft landing in the countryside

If you're a photographer, writer, designer, maker, workshop host or community builder, our residency gives you focused time, fast fibre and a cabin in the Sierra de San Vicente — at a reduced rate — in return for a contribution that helps the village and our community. We host a handful of creatives each season.

What you get & What we're looking for

What you get

  • A private cabin plus 200 m² coworking with dual 600 Mbps fibre
  • A reduced residency rate for your stay
  • A welcoming village and nature on your doorstep
  • Your work shared with our audience and guests

What we're looking for

  • A skill you'll share — photos, a workshop, words, a build, an event
  • A few days of your time across the stay
  • Genuine enthusiasm for rural life and community
  • Flexibility on dates — residencies run season by season

Published rates here start at €50 a night for a room in the Molino and €72 for a private cabin; residents stay at a reduced rate we agree case by case. Coworking is included — the same desk day guests pay €25 for. The nearest train and bus hub is Talavera de la Reina, 25 km away; Toledo is 77 km, Ávila 100 km, and Madrid-Barajas about 1 h 15 by car.

Cooking is on you, but it isn't compulsory: El Molino, our own restaurant — a different building from the Molino rooms — is two minutes' walk away in the village, open for lunch Tuesday to Sunday and dinner Wednesday to Saturday. More about El Molino
