The Country House is a beautifully restored Catalan farmhouse in Bordils, just outside Girona, offering space and luxury in equal measure. The celebrated El Celler de Can Roca is a few minutes' drive away, and within twenty minutes you can be exploring the region's most captivating towns or the coastline that made the Costa Brava famous.
Much of the masia's original character has been lovingly preserved: the clay oven, the old wine cellar and the exposed stone walls, which bear witness to more than 168 years of craftsmanship. Once home to a family of Catalan landowners, the house has a way of carrying its guests back to another era, with every modern comfort quietly in place. The main entrance opens onto a spacious living room with a dining area and a fully equipped kitchen, which leads straight out to a large shaded terrace with barbecue and on to the pool garden.
Eleven bedrooms are thoughtfully distributed. Two, each with its own bathroom, lie just off the living room. On the top floor, seven double suites are arranged around a generous lounge decorated with striking frescoes by a Sitges painter, and two further double suites occupy an annex at the entrance, ideal for guests who value a little extra privacy. With a hot tub, a piano, air conditioning and a helipad, it is a natural setting for celebrations: picture a private chef at the barbecue while cocktails are served by the pool.
