Vacation Rental Description
On a quiet road opposite vineyards, the house is a spacious family home, ideal for families with children. Set in a lovely large garden which goes right around the house. The lockabable front gates means you can leave the children to play outside quite safely. There is a lovely village pool 10 minutes walk away. The built in barbeque and terrace outside the kitchen and living room are ideal for eating outdoors, and there is a large terrace upstairs with great views. We want all our guests to make the most of their stay in this beautiful part of Catalunya and have compiled a very detailed folder full of ideas on places to visit, and places to avoid. The house is a very comfortable family home and not the usual sparsely furnished holiday house.
Outside the kitchen, there is a terrace with a BBQ and a teak dining table. There is also a table tennis table with bats and balls and a hammock under shady trees.
There are two golf courses nearby. One at Perelada is 18 holes and only 7km away. The second one, Torremirona, is 20 km away.
There are plenty of walking trails in the area going past neolithic stone structures (dolmens), and some which start from Vilajuiga itself.
There are plenty of beaches to choose from. The nearest are in Roses, 10 minutes drive away. There is also a huge open wild beach about half an hour away. And a some very pretty bays beyond Roses from about 20 minutes away.
Girona airport is 45 minutes very easy drive and Perpignan is also easy to get to 1 hour away, both airports served by Ryanair. Barcelona airport/city is 1.5 hours away.
Holiday resort town of Roses 12km.
Figueres and Dali musuem, shopping and markets, 11km.
Medieval village of Perelada (casino, golf) 7 km.
Medieval village of Castello d'Empuries, (restaurants, beautiful cathedral) 10km.
Village has excellent butcher, local shop, fishmonger, restaurants and bars and two banks. The village pool is very large and highly recommended, particularly over lunchtime when it is usually empty. It costs €6 per adult and €3 for children for the whole day, but you can leave and come back. There is always a cool breeze and plenty of shade under the pine trees.
Here are some guest comments:
‘It's well equipped, quiet and tastefully decorated, and the fact that it was furnished to be your home didn't intrude as it might have, but enhanced our stay. The garden is lovely, and the house is big and airy.’ Mr C. Rowan
‘Your property is stunning. The fully enclosed garden made it safe and spacious for the children, while we chilled out with a glass or two around the barbecue. The house was well laid out inside and so easy to use the facilities, we felt at home straight away. We had forgotten that the property description mentioned an upstairs terrace. It was some time before we opened the upstairs patio doors to step out on to the huge balcony, with long distance views and catch the refreshing breeze - it was beautiful!’ Ms G Atkinson
