A vacation with plenty of peace and relaxationIf you're looking for a vacation with plenty of peace and quiet, Helen and Juan (?) are the perfect place. The holiday home is secluded in a small forest.The holiday home is simply furnished, but you'll find everything you need. The house is largely self-sufficient; electricity comes from solar panels, and the water comes from a well, which is why the tap water isn't necessarily drinkable.The house is equipped with ceiling fans in the bedrooms and dining area. The absolute highlight for our children and us, however, was the pool, which was for our exclusive use.Helen and Juan are wonderful, attentive hosts. They were always helpful with questions and gave good tips for excursions and restaurants.

Wonderfull holiday home on a private terrain. Great base to explore the region: coastal villages and beaches, Girona, Figueres with its Dali museum, Besalu, Banyoles,... all within 45 minutes by car. For peace and quiet in the typical Catalan surroundings you don't even have to leave the property: the swimming pool on the forested terrain is an absolute plus. Helen and Joan very available without any intrusion at all, even though they have their own house about 100m away. Ideal for a family vacation in Catalonia!

The house is spacious and well equipped. The owner is keen to welcome you and ensure that you have everything you need.

We visited the cabin for nearly one week this summer, with the hope to disconnect from big city and work. For our kids, the most important thing is always the pool, so we chose this cabin specially for that reason. Sadly for us, we had the hottest week in the year with a temperature of 38 to 42 °C and no clouds. Therefore, we could only use the pool in the morning and the evening, when the sun was not so strong. But the pool was absolutely amazing and it is always best to not having to share it with more people. The garden is very big and beautiful, sadly for us the times we were outside we spent in the pool. The high temperatures kept on during nights and the cabin has only ceiling ventilators, no A/C. But with daily trips to the coast, we managed to cool down a bit in the Mediterranean. In this zone is not that much to see, only a few smaller cities. For more, you have to drive about 30 minutes at least. So yes, to get there AND go for groceries and trips, you definitely NEED a car. It is not possible to grill in the garden, the whole region is banned for outside grilling due to danger of fire. And the house has no laundry machine. Last but definitely not least, the drinking water comes from a well. As the water levels in the ground vary during seasons, so does the quality of the water. We were informed on site, that the drinking water was no good to drink and we had to buy water or refill bottles in the town nearby. This is not acceptable, specially in the summer!
