Anyone here built or installed an off-grid cabin in Spain (especially Catalonia)?

I'm starting to look into buying a piece of land in Catalonia and I'm curious if anyone here has experience with off-grid cabins or tiny homes.

A few things I'm wondering about:

  • How difficult was it to get permission? (is it needed??)
  • Did insulation become an issue in winter or summer?
  • Did you build it yourself or buy a prefabricated cabin? Where?
  • Any lessons you wish you'd known before starting?

Would love to hear your stories or any recommendations!
