Description Spanish Sunbeam: Calonge

Standing in the heart of the Les Gavarres Natural Park, this former farmstead sits amidst oak forests and idyllic nature. Renovated using local materials, the home's rustic charm makes a fantastic backdrop to a family reunion, while the private garden offers stunning landscape views. While the pool is shared with the owners, it's still a great addition – set in the large garden and surrounded by trees, you'll feel the seclusion here. When you start to miss civilization, though, you're just 15 minutes from La Bisbal d'Empordà, a town with shops and eateries, and close to some of Costa Brava's most beautiful beaches.

Home truths:
*This home is directly next to the owner's home and shares the pool and larger gardens with them. They live here some of the year – contact your host if you want to book a time when you'll have the areas to yourselves.
*One of the twin rooms can be turned into a king on request.
*The swimming pool isn't fenced. If you're bringing little ones, they'll need to be supervised at all times.
*Due to this home's location, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay. You might also find that the phone signal is patchy from time to time.
