Sant Climent Sescebes is conveniently and peacefully situated in the north of Catalonia, close to all the main attractions. It is a small typical Catalan village, surrounded by vineyards and olive groves. The north side of Sant Climent Sescebes borders the mountains, the Albera Natural Park, with plenty of possibilities to enjoy unspoilt nature. This park has been nominated for UNESCO world heritage. The nearby coast offers quiet beaches, often hidden in small rocky coves, and the Cap de Creus Natural Park. In the nearby picturesque villages you can find expressions of (Catalan) culture; good restaurants, wine-houses, music festivals, local festivals, monastries, castles and megalithic monuments. The Alt Emporda has always been a favourite spot for artists, the exceptional combination of mountain and marine scenery has inspired many. Among others, the artist Salvador Dali left his traces in the Dali museums in Figueres, Cadaqués and Púbol.

Notes: In the apartment we have made a unique combination of old and new. It has been renovated in a modern style, while retaining the authentic character of the 17th century house. The old stone walls, combined with new plastered elements, contrast in a surprising way. The interior has been created with care and an eye for detail, using only natural and local materials (oak, chestnut, terracotta tiles, natural stone and ecological paint). It is fully designed and furnished by a furniture designer so honest woodwork with details that show the skills of the craftsman can be noticed everywhere. The living and cooking area are connected by the half length walls of the kitchen, allowing guests to interact during cooking and giving a spacious feeling. The high living room is brightly lit by natural light that comes through large glass doors and windows which give access to the roof terrace, 18m squared. This is no rustic interior, this is an interior filled with modernly designed craft work!

Further details for this holiday apartment rental in Figueres area, Spain

Gastronomy and spa: There are several good wine-houses in the area. Among them is one of our neighbours, Marti Fabra, who makes beautiful wines earning him a high ranking from Robert Parker. His most famous red wine is called Masia Carreres and can be bought just over the road. In the villages surrounding Sant Climent there are good restaurants to be found: among them are Ca la Maria and La reina de Portlligat in Mollet de Peralada, Cal Sagrista in Perelada and Flor de Pagès in Capmany. If you prefer a restaurant with a sea view there is (among others) the restaurant on Platja Garbet (Llança) with its fish specialities or Miramar (Llança), a Michelin star restaurant. Gastronomic specialities in this region are focused on the combination of mountain and seafood products known as 'mar i montanya'. One of our other neighbours is a beauty salon. Besides a hairdresser, they offer all kinds of beauty treatments.

France / Castles and monastries: Very near to Sant Climent is the Requesens castle that is situated in the heart of the Albera Natural Park and surrounded by wild nature.The continuous use of the castle has made it possible to preserve the different buildings although they have also suffered some modifications. The last use of the castle was by soldiers from the civil war and it is possible to feel the atmosphere they left. Vilabertran (near Figueres) was a very important monastery in the midle ages, and a romanesque jewel. Sant Quirze de Colera is a 12th century monastry nearby Ràbos in plain nature. Sant Pere de Rhodes, 10th century, near Port de la Selva, has a stunning view over the sea. Banyuls sur Mer is nearby, and on the French coastline, villages such as Collioure offer you a different entourage and gastronomy. Ceret has its own 'Museé d'Art Moderne' and many art galleries. The medieval town of Perpignan also has several interesting museums, not forgetting its cathedral, churches and chapels

The village Sant Climent and things to do: In Sant Climent there is a bakery (wood-oven baked bread), supermarket, chemist, bank, butcher, beautysalon, hairdresser, winehouse, 2 simple restaurants, 3 bars and a garage. Walking in the direct surroundings of Sant Climent, you can see dolmens and menhirs, impressive megalithic monuments . In the neighbour-village Espolla (2 km) there is a public outdoor swimmingpool with pinetrees that provide shade. The historic village of Peralada, with gardens, lake, castle, moat and golf-course and casino is 11 km away. In summer the Peralada festival is famous for its numerous open air music-concerts and dance-performances. Jazz festivals in Figueres and in the botanic garden at Cap Roig offer concerts at warm summer nights. In the coast-village Rosas are several activities to visit: a kart-court, aquabrava (a water-paradise-swimmingpool) and a Thalasso-centre. In Castelló d'Empuries there is a Butterfly Park, in Gariguella the Mediterranean Turtle Centre.

Ski: The ski-resorts La Molina and Valter 2000 are both within driving distance of 1 and a half hours.

Golf: There are several golf options within a close distance of Sant Climent Sescebes. The Perelada Golf course is only a 15 minute drive away 'golf peralada' with an 18 hole par 71 golf course it has been recognised as the best on the Costa Brava. The other alternative is 'torremirona' which is about 25 minutes away and has an 18 hole golf course par 72 .

We had a lovely time...

Brightoneers Brighton, England
Review Submitted: September 10, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
The flat is just as described in the details. It is welcoming, immaculately clean, comfortable and stylish. We also really appreciated the calm of the village and the beauty of the surrounding area.
The owners were very helpful, providing 3 bikes and giving excellent advice about what to see and do. We loved our trips to the coast, the Dali museum in Figueres, the castle at Requesens, Girona, Cadaques.
We made it as far as the French border but not into France-that's for next time!

Du bon pain, du bon vin et du romantisme

Christine et Vincent Bois le Roi, France
Review Submitted: September 3, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
Sant Climent Sescebes est un village tranquille disposant de toutes les facilités: petit supermarché, du très bon pain, une boucherie-charcuterie d'excellente qualité, une pharmacie et cerise sur le gâteau un producteur de vin dont la cave, se trouvant de l'autre côté du trottoir de la maison, mérite plus qu'une simple dégustation.
Le village se trouve à mi-chemin environ entre les plages (la plus proche étant celle de Llança mais coup de coeur aux plages des ruines d'Empuries, Canyelles, Almadrava, Montjoi à Roses) et la montagne. Les villages de l'alt emporda, le cap creus, sont tout proche. Région à découvrir absolument : amateur de vin, venez découvrir les vignes de l'alt emporda, amateurs de nature, de randonnée, de vélo (route viaverde au départ d'Olot ou Girone) ou tout simplement ceux voulant passer un moment au calme loin des foules et du béton de la costa brava, venez sans hésiter à Can Giubert. Nous sommes une famille avec trois enfants de 3, 6 et 9 ans. Nous avons éte acceuilli très amicalement par un ami des propriétaires, il nous a transmis de bonnes adresses restaurants dont le restaurant de Mollet. Nous avons apprécié la décoration sobre mais de qualité, la luminosité de l'appartement, la cuisinière, la bonne literie, le sentiment d'espace du fait de l'ouverture sous plafonds, de l'accès par un escalier tout de bois menant à une terrasse où il fait bon se prélasser et admirer le paysages de l'alt emporda. A recommander sans hésitation à tous. Merci à Mauk pour son accueil, merci à Martijn et Petra pour leur confiance, pour nous avoir guider jusqu'à la cave...!

A wonderful base for exploration and relaxation

Badcall Scourie, Sutherland, Scotland
Review Submitted: July 7, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
Can Guibert offers everything you need for a fantastic stay in this picturesque, peaceful and unspoilt area of Catalunya. The apartment is just as described, clean ,comfortable and stylish, Petra and Martijn friendly and helpful. The roof terrace provided wonderful ambiance during a week of really fine weather, enhanced by equally fine wine from the winery across the road. There is so much to explore and do in this area, and great local eating places to be found. Thankyou again Petra and Martijn.

beautiful, modern and different

Mark11 Amsterdam
Review Submitted: June 9, 2008 Date of Stay: April 2008
I really loved the place for its light and modern interior. Everything is done with care and style. Nice extras, like good DVDs. Nice terrace.
The place is good located, especially when you want to stay at a quiet spot but not far from nice places to visit. The natural park was really beautiful, the owner of the appartment took us out for a ride in his 4x4!
The owners were very nice and helpfull, gave us good tips for sights, walks and good restaurants.
I really love the place, something rare to find. I recommend this place for modern people looking for something with style, comfort and tranquility.

The perfect spot

Paulien & Jeroen Nieuw-Vennep, Holland
Review Submitted: May 26, 2008 Date of Stay: April 2008
Just below the Spanish Pyrenees, near the beautiful beaches of the Costa Brava, there is the lovely village called Sant Climent Sescebes. With also the Dali Theatre-Museum in Figueres, the National Parc of Alberia and the French border at just a stone's throw away, this is the perfect spot for a holiday in the North of Spain.

Just as Sant Climent is a genuine Spanish village with still all the necessities of a tourist - like a small super market, a bakery and an ATM - the apartment of Can Giubert has an authentic atmosphere, but with the luxury of a dishwasher, a washing machine and a TV. Add to that the romantic roof terrace and the sublime red wine from across the street, and your choice is made: you cannot say no to Can Giubert.

Warning: there is a serious risk that you will be wanting to return at least once a years, just as we have promised ourselves after our second visit this spring.
