Can Talalla: Costa Brava area

Located in the heart of the beautiful Pla de l’Estany hills, just north of Girona, this luxury vacation rental in Spain is perched on a ridge with fantastic views.

The property is within easy reach of the beautiful Costa Brava beaches (30-45 minutes away) and close to the historic cities of Girona, Figueres and the French Border. Barcelona is just over 1h away.

Here the air is clear and guests can relax informally in the countryside of rural Catalonia, dotted with medieval hill towns, woods and green fields. This area is excellent for cycling and walking. It is possible to bike to several nearby villages on quiet country roads to visit a coffee bar or pick up fresh bread in the morning.

Guests can also explore village markets, craft and pottery shops and marvellous restaurants.

This beautiful stone “mas” (farmhouse) has a red-tiled roof, ancient well and stonewalls with climbing bougainvillea. It dates from 1806 and is has spacious accommodation for 13-15 people with 7,600 sq feet indoors and a large pergola/BBQ area outside.

It has been lovingly renovated to keep the original flavour with exposed-stone walls, vaulted ceilings, huge exposed beams, terra cotta-tiled floors, and colour-washed walls.

Downstairs you will find a large entry hall with vaulted ceiling, a large and comfortable living room, and a spacious eat-in country kitchen. There is also one en-suite double bedroom, and a library/office with a computer and twin beds to provide sleeping space for two additional guests.

Upstairs there are 5 double bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. All bedrooms have air conditioning.
