Country cottages & farmhouses

Catalonia is not just about the Costa Brava and Barcelona, the inland countryside also has a lot to offer the traveller. Just inland from the beaches of the Costa Brava is the Emporda region. The Emporda is one of Europe’s best kept secrets and has been described as “the new Tuscany”. It is easy to see the comparisons; verdant countryside, unspoilt medieval villages and a sense of being in touch with the natural elements.

Further inland one finds the Garroxta region with its extinct volcanoes, beech forests and the charming medieval village of Besalu.

The rural area to the south of Barcelona and close to Sitges is also a popular destination for those who wish to find a base closer to Barcelona yet in a peaceful countryside location.
