Accommodation and Facilities for the villa in Begur, Costa Brava - Girona, Spain

Local attractions

Throughout the summer outdoor international music festivals can be enjoyed at Cap Roig Botanical Gardens (a magical setting high on a clifftop with the Mediterranean as a backdrop), San Feliu de Guixols and Toroella de Montgri (recent artists include Bob Dylan, Diana Ross, Roberta Flack, The Chieftains, Youssou N'dour, as well as classical musicians.) The Cap Roig gardens themselves are well worth a visit at any time of the year - unique Mediterranean gardens in a spectacular coastal setting overlooking the fishing village of Calella and the Illes Formigues.

The whole area is rich in history and Catalan culture with Roman and Greek ruins at Empuries, Iberian settlements at Ullastret, Arab baths in Girona, as well as numerous medieval villages and towns. The beautifully restored medieval village of Peratallada, entirely free of cars, gives one the experience of stepping back in time. This part of Catalunya is a haven for foodies (including vegetarians) with several outstanding restaurants in magical rural and coastal settings. A list of our favourites can be found in the house manual. There is a wide network of short and long distance walks both rural and coastal with extremely well-maintained and signed paths including the well-marked long-distance coastal path (Cami de Ronda). Winter days are usually sunny and bright making it a wonderful time to enjoy the walks.

Important Note

The whole villa (inside and out) has been refurbished for 2008: new kitchen, bathrooms, flooring, furniture; repainted inside and out.

Skiing Information:

Ski resorts are from approx 2 hours drive away in the Pyrenees and Andorra, for example La Molina. For an active winter holiday, days of skiing and ski boarding can be combined with walking in the foothills of the Pyrenees.
