Espolla holiday farmhouse: Espolla

The Mas de la Llosa is an old stable renovated into a warm mountain cottage. Immersed in the wild Alberes Mountains that form the Alberes Natural Park, it is one of three renovated houses located in the same large estate called Baussitges. Although just 30 km away from the busy Costa Brava, this wild place has remained a secret. Here you can discover the beautiful wilderness of the forests and the calm of the mountains. The nearest village is Espolla, 10 km away. There are 6 km of asphalt road before taking 4km of track for 4x4 vehicles only. Only authorized cars can go into the estate so the absence of the noisy traffic and people in the surroundings is just one of the advantages of being so isolated. In Espolla, you can find a few food stores and restaurants. The Park’s information centre is also in this village. The house has been renovated following the local style.

Inside there is one double room with an open fire for heating and a triple mezzanine bedroom which opens onto the living room. In the open plan kitchen/dinning room-living room there is another fire for heating. The shower-room and toilet is next to the living room. By conserving the old, thick walls, this house is easy to heat in winter yet remains cool in summer. Electricity is provided by energy saving solar panels and as a result, electrical appliances are not recommended. This is also the reason that microwaves, washing machines etc. are not provided. Water comes directly from a spring. For most of the year, there are no shortages however in summer great care should be taken to reduce waste to a minimum. The front of the house has a terrace where it is possible to take a pleasant al fresco breakfast or supper and nearby there is another large terrace with barbecue and stone table. From both you have wonderful views of the mountains.
