Testimonials
We've just returned from a two-week stay at Mas Toroella and all I can say is next time two-weeks will not be enough. While we were impressed with the presentation of this lovely masia through photos, pictures can not do this property justice. It is simply stunning in every way possible. The house, finely manicured property, and amenities are all finely appointed. The remodel was done with attention to detail, mixing old and new, making comfortable and contemporary accommodations while keeping the spirit of the original structure. The rooms are spacious, the overall feeling is airy and light, and the house is equipped with everything needed. Personal touches are everywhere from lovely soaps and bath gels to embroidered towels and guest slippers. It is simply charming on a grand scale. While the location is a 4km drive from the base of town, we realized the drive was not that bad as the house offered so much that our entire group (8 adults and 6 children) was perfectly happy to remain on the property to relax, play, swim, cook and spend many beautiful days and evenings outdoors. It is easily located near beautiful beaches and charming towns as well, so when we did decide to leave the house, we were not far from many attractions and day-trips. There is an incredible farmer's market every day down the hill in Palafrugell, beautiful medieval towns such as Pals and Begur as close as 15 minutes and the local cuisine whether simple or fancy is fantastic. The location is also convenient to airports (Girona and Barcelona) and the highways are easily accessible to the surrounding areas which consisted of beaches, mountains and countryside alike. The staff was lovely and always kept the property in tip-top condition. They were also readily available if we needed assistance with anything. The owners, Silvia and Josep, were gracious and eager to make sure everything went perfect for our stay, which passed way too quickly. Their hearts and pride were obvious in everything they created at Can Ginesta. I would definitely recommend this lovely masia to anyone looking for a beautiful country house with a somewhat large group. Richard and Sara at Charming Villas were right on target in recommending this property for our group. They were helpful with all of our inquiries and provided assistance with information regarding everything from hiring local chefs to rental cars to train schedules to local attractions. They are very well organized and made our trip so easy. I would highly recommend using them to help search for your perfect stay in Catalonia.
