Car rental and carsharing with Mobify

How to get to A Arnoia from Ourense and explore O Ribeiro at your own pace, with electric mobility.

Getting to A Arnoia shouldn’t be the first hurdle of your getaway. That’s why at Bicotorto we make it easy for you: thanks to Mobify, the mobility service run by the guesthouse’s own developer, you can arrive without bringing your own car right into the heart of O Ribeiro and then move around in complete freedom. Ourense is very well connected by train and high-speed AVE, and from its station the last stretch to the house takes little more than half an hour.

Mobify is a mobility service in Galicia that combines car rental and carsharing by the hour or by the day, operating in Ourense, A Coruña and Santiago. It’s the natural way to discover O Ribeiro on your own terms: its vineyards, its viewpoints over the Miño and the villages of the D.O. Ribeiro, without depending on schedules or on anyone else. More information at mobify.es.

Arrive by train and pick up your car in Ourense

If you come by train, the hard part is already done. Ourense has a train station and high-speed AVE service, with Madrid around 2h20 away, so you can plan your O Ribeiro getaway without ever taking your car out of the garage.

From Ourense station, with Mobify you reach A Arnoia in about 40 minutes. You pick up your Mobify vehicle right at the station and, after a short, comfortable drive, you arrive at Bicotorto, ready to start enjoying yourself. Just ask us when you book and we’ll help you choose the option that best fits your arrival.

Rental and carsharing to discover O Ribeiro at your own pace

Once you’re here, having a vehicle completely changes the experience. O Ribeiro is meant to be enjoyed slowly, from winery to winery and from viewpoint to viewpoint, and many of its corners call for a car on hand.

With Mobify’s car rental or carsharing —the shared car you book by the hour or the day— you decide the plan: a morning in Ribadavia and its Jewish quarter, a route through the vineyards of the D.O. Ribeiro, or a stage of the Camiño Miñoto-Ribeiro. No schedule constraints, at your own pace. Discover the options at mobify.es.

Electric and sustainable mobility

Bicotorto’s philosophy is to care for what surrounds us, and mobility is part of that. The Mobify fleet is modern and largely electric and eco-friendly, with models such as the electric BYD Atto 3 or the hybrid Toyota C-HR, along with nimble options like the Fiat 500, Peugeot or MG.

Exploring O Ribeiro in an electric or hybrid car fits naturally with the guesthouse’s sustainable character: less noise, fewer emissions and a calmer way of moving through a landscape that deserves to be looked after.

Exclusive conditions for Bicotorto guests

As a Bicotorto guest you’ll enjoy exclusive conditions and rates with Mobify, designed to make your mobility during your stay simple and advantageous.
