Much like its rural setting, this sixteenth–century farmhouse is full of beautiful contrasts. Surrounded by rugged rocks, olive trees and wide–open fields, this is the kind of home that belongs to its landscape. It’s the perfect setting for families and friends to enjoy quality time together – the communal spaces have been designed for entertaining, making it easy to socialise and share the beauty of this space. And the scale of this home makes it possible to find moments of quiet with a book or simply admire the scenery. From inside to outside, there’s a sense of warmth and tradition that makes you want to stay. You could easily spend your days relaxing by the pool, but this region is brimming with opportunities for sightseeing, hiking, cycling and wine-tasting. Plus it’s only a three–minute drive to the city of Igualada – this is a wonderful place to experience authentic Mediterranean cuisine and cultural heritage. You won’t want to miss the sunset from the garden of this beautiful home. Light the barbecue and celebrate the magic of being together in this special place.

Visit the impossible view at Tibidabo
The place doesn't even look real when you see the photos. The fantastical church of Sagrat Cor in the mountains is its greatest hit, but we recommend you take the whole day to explore the mountain.
Go see a football match at Camp Nou
The stadium of Camp Nou has been the home stadium of FC Barcelona since its completion in 1957. It's always got great energy and seeing the team play on their home turf is an absolute treat.
Take a stroll through Jardins de Bacardí
This small park is perfect for a stroll and has lots of stuff to do – from playgrounds to ping pong tables and a skating ring, its a great place to spend an afternoon.
Have a wander through Gaudí's Park Güell
This spectacular park, designed by Antoni Gaudí, is located in the upper part of Barcelona — take some time to ??appreciate the wonderful mosaics and magnificent views of the city.
Shop for fresh ingredients at Mercat de Lesseps
This Gracia-based market serves the freshest ingredients brought in from nearby villages. You can also have breakfast or tapas at one of its many stalls.
Choose your dinner at La Paradetta
La Paradetta has excellent fresh seafood, which you can see for yourself as it's modelled to look like a market.
Catch an original language film at Cines Verde
Brush up on your Spanish, sit back, relax and soak up some culture at this local cinema showing films in their original language (not dubbed).
Visit an Industrial Park by Sants Estacion
Very nice park but behind Sants Estacion, with a great selection of swings and games for kids.
Taste some authentic Catalan food at Cachitos Diagonal
Great Catalan food with an avant-garde twist. The food is served quickly and is well priced. Make sure to leave room for dessert.
Dine in style at Paco Meralgo
This terrific restaurant is best known for its top-notch wine, and excellent stews. Be sure to try their “montaditos”, freshly made and utterly delicious. Stylish setting too.
