Experience the wonders of laid-back Catalonian living in this lovely Meditteranean home. Situated in the hills of Canyelles in a beautiful green area away from the hustle and bustle of life, you'll be treated to your own slice of serenity. The home is part of a 300-year-old finca bursting with character – from the ancient stone walls to the traditional wooden beams. It's a true example of a Catalonian farmhouse in the countryside, and we have a funny feeling you're going to enjoy yourself here. Wake up to views of the Meditteranean hills from your bedroom before heading downstairs to enjoy the private terrace area where you can relax on sun loungers, grill up tasty vegetables for a Catalonian escalivada, or just wander around and admire the vibrant Meditteranean flowers blooming with colour in the sunlight. There's even a swimming pool area to enjoy, which is shared with other guests in the finca. But your terrace area will be private to you. Hiring a car here is essential if you want to explore the local area or make quick trips to the shops. The town of Sitges is a fifteen-minute drive away and is home to a lovely beach in Plaja de Sitges. Further afield, Barcelona is a relatively short drive away and a must-visit while you're in Catalonia. We recommend the forty-seven-minute journey to Barcelona's Park Güell to admire Gaudi's magnificent art. Make sure to book well in advance though as it does get busy.

About Catalonia
Catalonia is home to the Costa Brava coastline, the Pyrenees Mountains, and the cultural jewel that is Barcelona. It’s a region rich in history and is the birthplace of Dalí, Gaudi, and the Barca football club. Soak up the culture in Barcelona and Girona before hitting the coast – the Cap de Begur coves are a must-see, as is the picture-perfect town of Cadaqués, which is known for its white...
