I would highly recommend Gustavo's farmhouse for a relaxing holiday in the Costa Brava.
Gustavo was a great host who communicated really well before our stay, he picked us up from the nearby petrol station to take us to the farmhouse.
He also recommended some great place to eat and visit close by.
The farmhouse is absolutely wonderful.
It was super clean and beautifully renovated, and tastefully and comfortably furnished. We loved the attention to detail throughout the house, the beautiful doors, stone floors etc.
The bedrooms were kept cool during the night, by rotary fans, and the beds were really comfortable.
The kitchen was really well equipped and functional, and even had a range gas cooker, which we were really happy about.
The covered outside eating area was perfect for al fresco eating, which we did every night when we stayed at home to cook.
The pool area is lovely and the pool is kept clean, the covered dining area and lounge area near the pool are also lovely spaces to relax and enjoy a few drinks.
Cologne is a great base to explore the area from, there are lots of supermarkets close by, and a Municipal market in Palamos, where we bought fresh seafood.
There are some beautiful little coves (cala) close by, ( 5 minutes drive) I would highly recommend Cala Cap Roig, there's a lovely beach bar, which served the best Sangrias ever, and it's perfect for snorkelling. Cala Del Paller is also very lovely. Girona is definitely worth a visit, its about half hours drive inland.
We would definitely love to return to Gustavo's farmhouse for another holiday.
