In between the city of Girona and the wild coast, with five stunning acres of gardens, fields and woodlands in the foothills of the majestic Catalan Pyranees, Can Ferriol is an exquisite, sustainably restored gem of Spanish heritage. Set in a privileged location in the pre-Pyrenees volcanic region of La Garrotxa, Can Ferriol is 10 minutes from the medieval town of Besalu and a 45 minute drive to the Mediterranean sea. This 13th century farmhouse has been lovingly restored over 4 years and is now incredibly beautiful with the mastery of blending ancient nods from the past with spectacular contemporary design and comfort.

Can Ferriol is totally gorgeous inside and out. The villa borders farmland and the Fluvia River with countryside and mountain views all around. Guests are promised total seclusion, privacy and tranquility within beautiful surroundings. You will be at one with nature at the same time as enjoying fabulous modern amenities. The restoration of Can Ferriol was completed in 2020 with a prestigious LEED Platinum certification, the very first for a home in Spain. LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) is an internationally recognised green building certification that ensures buildings are designed and built sustainably, with high environmental performance in energy usage and water efficiency, CO₂ emission reduction, high indoor environmental quality and stewardship of resources. The Platinum qualification is the very highest level of certification and a significant accolade. Within glorious countryside, guests can enjoy biking, hiking, horseback riding, hot air ballooning, bird watching and simply relaxing away from the stresses and strains of everyday life. The fabulous Concierge Team of Can Ferriol can also arrange workshops for wine tasting, cooking and herbalism as well as private chefs and other arrangements.
