Mas Dalt

Around to the side of the house there is another independent apartment under vaulted ceilings with 3 en suite bedrooms, as well as kitchen/living/dining room. Across the new 12x5m swimming pool and lawn area from the main house is another brand new fully equipped 4 bedroom (all en suite) stone house. Situated 1 km from Can Tapies - see next house.

Can Tapies

sleeps up to 25 or so guests in 12 bedrooms, 9 bathrooms, Can Tapies is on the same huge property as Mas Dalt, and is another baronial stone mansion consisting of three fully equipped and independent apartments, one with 5 bedrooms with private bathroom, another apartment with 3 bedrooms with private bathroom, and one apartment with 4 rooms sharing a bathroom. (Total is 12 rooms + 9 bathrooms.) The villa is only rented as a whole in high-season, but can be rented by apartment in the off-season. It is very important to stress here that these are not 3 apartments crammed into a normal farmhouse. Each apartment is very generously proportioned, with kitchen, living/dining room, private terrace, etc, each apartment set well apart from the other. The new 12x5m swimming pool is set on a terrace just below the house, and the views throughout are great! Excellent for larger groups but priced for normal groups who might just want a little extra space!

Saturday to Saturday rentals in mid and high-season, 2009 rental rates: low-season: 3240, mid-season: 4050, high-season: 5030 Euros/week. Off-season weekend rates: 1650 Euros plus 500 extra night.

Can Cunill

up to 20 or so in 10 bedrooms, 7 bathrooms, 8 rooms air-conditioned. Located 20 kms south of Girona, one hour from Barcelona, a safe 20 kms inland from Lloret de Mar and the other (better) southern Costa Brava resorts. This is a huge "luxury" estate (sorry for using the often abused "L" word - I usually don´t - but this one deserves it!) originally dates from 1583, has 8,000m2 of private gardens (tended by a full-time gardener), two large swimming pools, and a magnificent poolside dining area and seating for over 50 guests (outdoor kitchen and bathrooms too). This is the kind of villa you might see on TV. Even if you can't afford to stay here - and if you can you probably should - you might like to take a quick look at this one just for the fun of it. I've seen lesser villas going for twice the price!

Saturday to Saturday in mid and high-season, 2009 rental rates: low-season: 2420, mid-season: 4035, high-season: 5520 Euros/week. Off-season weekend bookings welcome: 1350 Euros, plus 350 Euros for extra nights.

Cal Arnau

up to 20 or so in 9 rooms and 6 bathrooms, this massive 1200m2 house on a beautiful 5 hectaire private riverside property is located just 8 kms north of Girona, and offers very spacious comfort and a good-sized fenced-in 10 x 6m swimming pool in a central location in the very heart of the Costa Brava.  The scale of the place is huge but by no means overwhelming, and the place feels is just about right - tastefully done by its Catalan-UK owners, comfy, not frilly or ostentatious.  A solid house and a solid choice! 

Fri to Fri rentals high-season, 2009 rates: low: 3500, mid: 4500 high-season: 5500 Euros/week. Off-season weekend rates: 1700 plus 400 Euros for extra night

Casanova de Ferrando

up to 20 in 9 rooms and 10 bathrooms!, this villa offers lots of space and lots of bedrooms with private bathroom for very little money.  With a beautifully landscaped garden (the owner´s have a garden center) situated just 1km from a small agricultural village 8 kms south of Girona and 15 kms to beaches. This villa is proving to be very popular with those in need of a big house, with a big 12 x 6m swimming pool, a fantastic garden... and plenty of bathrooms. Excellent feedback from past guests.  Recommended!

Can Brugues

up to 18 or so in 9 rooms, 7 bathrooms, a large house on the edge of town divided into 3 independent and separate duplex apartments, each with separate entrance, a kitchen, living room, etc... The idea is that three or four families can share the villa and be together (in the large living and dining rooms in the main part of the house and the outdoor sitting areas and pool) but otherwise each family has its own private living quarters. Situated on the edge of Sils - so a few minutes walk to bakery, shops, restaurants - and 2 kms to commuter train into Barcelona (50 minute ride) - about 17 kms south of Girona and 15 kms inland from Lloret de Mar and the southern Costa Brava beaches. Well planned out, with a good-sized swimming pool with cascade, nice views, and a nice little garden with outdoor BBQ and sitting areas, parking, etc.  Can Brugues has a lot going for it!

El Turó

up to 20 or so guests in 9 rooms, 11 bathrooms, this is no doubt the house with the greatest WOW-factor in my website.  Although not really on the Costa Brava (it is 40 kms due north of Barcelona, 2 kms from the pleasant village of Castellterçol, this new property deserves to be seen so I have decided to put it into both the Costa Brava listings and the Barcelona area listings, where it really belongs. This is a massive luxury (again, the L word is justified) mansion on a private 10 hectaire hilltop property in the middle of a natural park reserve, with indoor and outdoor swimming pools, and great views of the Pyrenees. The location and the grounds are tops, but what really sets this house apart is the very high quality of its interiors. Not inexpensive but do take a look at what a high-quality Catalan masia looks like!

Fri to Fri rentals in high-season; 2009 rates: low: 5900, mid: 7050, high-season: 7950 Euros/week. Off-season weekend rates 2000 plus 550 Euros per extra night.

Casa Sant Juan

Casa Sant Juan sleeps 17 or so in 9 bedrooms, in two different houses, 50 meters apart, on a large 35 hectaire hillside property under pines, 30 kms north of Barcelona, 12 kms inland from the beaches around Mataro.  The larger 5 bedroom house (225m2) has just been inaugurated this year and is quite luxurious, all air conditioned and with quality furnishings, while the other 4 bedroom house (100m2) is rather simple, and I have been offering this older house for years now, so the owners have a proven track record.  Each house has its own outdoor BBQ dining area, and there is a nice 10x6 meter swimming pool.  Priced for the two houses rented together only from 15/7 to 23/8, you can pick and choose from the two houses according to your needs and budget the rest of the year.  Highly recommended, for small and larger groups alike, who wish to be in a nice quiet location, but not far from Barcelona and the sea.

Sat to Sat rentals in high-season, 2009 rental rates for both houses, low: 1500, mid: 2250, high-season: 3000 Euros/week (the two houses are never rented separately). Weekend rates: 900 Euros plus 250 Euros extra night.

La Casa de les Monges

up to 20 or so in 7 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, this unique 500m2+ renovated ex-convent is situated the heart of the renovated old town of Osor, a very pleasant little village 25 kms west of Girona, about 35 kms inland from the beaches. Spread over three floors, this venerable building offers lots of space: a 48m2 terrace for al fresco dining, a 44m2 dining room, several large sitting rooms, large bedrooms, all beautifully renovated with the original high-beamed ceilings and long-planked parquet and tiled floors. In the summer months, guests have unlimited free use of the large municipal swimming pool and sports complex (500 meters away, including football pitch, lifeguards on duty, and of course, a terraced café!) a five-minute walk from the house. A hidden treasure, be sure to read the Comments Page about this house and the village!

Mas Roca

up to 14 in 6 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, this villa is situated less than a kilometer from Mas Grau and is rivaling even Mas Grau in popularity. And rightly so! Recently restored with holiday rentals in mind, Mas Roca offers a high level of comfort, including all the modern amenities, (washer and drier, dishwasher, satellite pay TV, etc), as well as the new 10x6 meter unfenced swimming pool, and a tennis wall (the Spanish play "fronton" - like Basque jai alai but with tennis rackets). Another excellent house at a very competitive rate. Book early!  Minimum 2 weeks in high-season.  With a day between rentals for cleaning, this house has variable changeover days.

Cal Rajoler

up to 12 or so in 6 rooms, 3 bathrooms, this 170m2 villa is in a beautiful location outside of Orfes, 4 km from Bascarà and the main roads between Figueres and Girona. I´ve been working with this house since 1999 (see the Comments Page) and this is undoubtedly one of the most solid properties (in terms of price/quality/comfort) in our listings. This area is just plain gorgeous, situated in the lush hills between the northern Costa Brava and the must-see lake Banyoles. The garden has a mix of palms and pines, with a 9m x 5m swimming pool and plenty of lawn space. Not a huge house but very comfy and gets booked up early!

La Torre de San Bartolomeu

up to 12 in 6 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms, former Benedictine priory with a lovely chapel, La Torre de San Bartolomeu is a high-quality, English-owned rental property set on a 5 acre private property between the Olympic lake at Banyoles and historic Besalú.  Recently renovated (2002) to a high standard of comfort, with atmospheric en suite rooms with private terrace, a good-sized 12 x 6 meter heated swimming pool and English-speaking local caretakers and gardener.  Not a cheap place to spend a week but some places are worth splurging for.  Even if you don´t stay here, you might want to take a look at the photos.  They are very attractive.

Casadevall villa

up to 12 or so in 6 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, Casadevall is a notable exception from the usual sort of rustic farmhouse property we normally offer. This is the modern 350m2 house of an architect, situated in a 10 hectaire private fenced-in property of mostly Mediterranean pine and cork oak, just outside of the town of Sils, 55 minutes north of Barcelona by car or by commuter train, a 1km or 15-minute walk through fields from the house. Built some 15 years ago, this designer house has 6 bedrooms (2 en suite) and a total of four bathrooms plus one wc, along with a sauna and an exercise room with weights and nautilus machines ...  But by far the nicest part of this villa is the large and quite deep triangular swimming pool and the outdoor covered BBQ dining area and porch. It is probably one of the nicest outdoors of any of the houses I offer, and I imagine most guests will spend all their time out here.

Saturday to Saturday in mid and high-season, 2009 rental rates: low-season: 2300, high-season: 3000 Euros/week.

Cal Pinyarol

up to 12 or so in 6 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms,  an enormous townhouse dating from 1681, this house is situated in the heart of a Medieval village 25 km from the coast, 10 km to Girona, and 16 km to Banyoles lake. The living quarters measure over 300m2 on three floors, with two fireplaces, plus 300m2 of patio space, and an atmospheric covered outdoor dining area (the old barns) with BBQ. The rooms are not fancy, the price is not high. This one has no pool or grassy garden so practically gets no bookings from me, but I don´t want to specialize in houses for the rich, so I am happy to offer this house for those on a limited budget.

Can Girones

up to 10 or so in 5 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, a beautifully restored old farmhouse in an unbeatable location, just off the greens of the new PGA golf course at Caldes de Malavella.  This is a very priviledged location, 12 kms south of Girona town, 15 kms inland from the middle Costa Brava beaches, and with the lush greens of the golf course in front of the house and the well-kept pine and cork forest just behind the house.  Aside from the very comfortable and attractive interior, including 2 living rooms and a separate dining room and kitchen, there is a lovely Japanese-inspired landscaped garden and a private fenced-in swimming pool.  I have stayed here myself twice and I am very enthusiastic about this new house, which is 4 kms to the commuter train in Caldes to Barcelona (every half hour, 1 hour ride) and just 1 hours drive from Barcelona on the fast AP-7 highway.  Even if you don´t play golf, this might very well be the one for you.

Casa de la Fuente

up to 10 in 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms,  situated in la Vall de Santa Creu, an idyllic village setting inland between Llança and Port de la Selva, just below the monastery of Sant Pere de Rodas, this beautifully restored old house is only 1.5 kms from the beach in an unspoilt village of stone houses and slate roofs. A house with plenty of character and an unbeatable location in summer! I think this is the kind of house many of you are looking for.

Casa Palau

up to 10 maximum guests in 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms,  for me, this house is undoubtedly, meter for square meter, one of the nicest houses in these listings. Perched just above Agullana, a prosperous village with a large Romanesque church and some good art-nouveau buildings, Casa Palau is surrounded by the owners vineyards and olive groves, offering wide panoramic views of hilly Albera range, where the mighty Pyrennes finally tumble into the Mediterranean at Cap de Creus. The house is beautiful and comfortable in equal measure, and now with the new fenced-in salt water 9x4m swimming pool, I think you would be hard pressed to find a nicer house or location on either side of the nearby French-Spanish border.  I don´t usually gush but this is a real gem.

Casa Aloe

up to 9 guests in 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms this is one of the few newly constructed houses we offer, but when I saw it, I couldn´t resist. Since adding Casa Aloe to our listings in 2002, it has consistently been one of our most successful properties, breaking all records for occupancy. Why?  Situated in a leafy residencial village overlooking a quality golf course (Vallromanes Golf, with green fees) just 20 minutes north of Barcelona -so not really on the Costa Brava but close enough! -  and a short (10km) drive from the beaches fronting the attractive coastal wine-growing town of Alella, this elegant and very spacious villa, with a private garden and swimming pool and sauna (both maintained year-round!) has exactly what many of you are looking for, and at the right price! Perfectly situated near main roads for easy exploration of both Barcelona and the Costa Brava.  Minimum 2 weeks in July and August.

El Casal

Feedback so far is very good!

Can Carboner

up to 7 in 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, an elegant stone townhouse in a lovely ancient hamlet just a couple of kms outside of Banyoles, the lakeside market town where my wife and I and our kids spend our holidays. The owners renovated this house for themselves and then decided not to live here. You won´t often see this quality of restoration in rental properties. The hand-painted bas-relief tiles in the bathroom say it all, as does the gorgeous en suite master bedroom with private terrace, the halogen lighting, the skylights in the hallways, the A/C in the living room, the garden with BBQ, etc...   No pool but the lake is nearby and you could certainly do a lot worse for 140 Euros per night!
