Location

Nestled in the hillside overlooking one of the most beautiful stretches of coastline in the Costa Brava, the surrounding pine-clad landscape affords guests both peace and privacy. The location is also an ideal spot for walkers, with plenty of hiking trails right on the villa's doorstep. The whole family can enjoy the Cami de Ronda Tamariu – Far de Sant Sebastia route, which takes around 1 hour and offers up stunning coastal views and plenty of wildlife.

The Costa Brava is also home to some of the best diving sites in Spain, with the nearby Formigues Islands (a 25-minute drive from the property) offering crystal clear waters and an abundance of marine life. Snorkelers and scuba divers can spend the day here spotting a wide variety of fish, including groupers, moray eels and red gorgonians. But if you'd rather spend the day topping up your tan, head to Llafranc beach. A mere 25-minute walk away, it's the perfect place to relax with fine sands and turquoise waters. Afterwards, take a stroll along the promenade and watch the boats bopping in the harbour or enjoy a leisurely lunch at one of the many chic restaurants. If you're feeling energetic, it's a 40-minute walk from the harbour to the lighthouse (Far de Sant Sebastia). Although it's a steep climb, it's worth the effort – from the top, you'll be rewarded with magnificent ocean views, and it even has a bar!

History-lovers can also spend time exploring the nearby ancient cities. The charming town of Begur is a 15-minute drive from the villa and well worth a visit. Its historic centre is a pretty place to stroll with its palaces and 'Indies' houses (built in colonial style) and is overlooked by the ruins of a 10th-century castle. Other historic villages include Pals and Peratallada. Both are under a 25-minute drive from the property and offer cobbled streets leading to medieval corners and centuries-old castles. For something a little different, visit Salvador Dali's castle mansion in La Pera. It's a 30-minute drive inland and offers a surreal experience. Here you can meander through Dali's bizarre gardens (dotted with statues of elephants with giraffes' legs) and contemplate his décor, including lion's heads on top of cupboards!
