We were 2 families travelling together and chose Dolor's beautiful home because it ticked so many boxes- it is within an hour and a half from Barcelona, it has a garden for children to run around in, a swimming pool that has a wall and lockable door which meant we didn't have to constantly watch the children when they went outside. Plus the fact that there were donkeys, chickens and peacocks made each day so much fun for the kids! They would feed the donkeys fruit and vegetable peelings everyday and tried to feed the chickens bits but they're pretty picky!! Locationwise- you are in the country but close to the motorway which means extremely easy access to nearby towns and places of interest and the nearest beach is only 30 minutes away. We made full use of the BBQ facilities and would just buy premarinaded meat from the butcher counter at the nearby supermarkets. The house is cool as the 14th century walls are incredibly thick. Dolors and her family live in the 19th century extenstion which is quite separate but she is nearby enough should you need anything. She regularly checked in on us. She speaks Spanish and French so somehow we managed to get by! Overall, we had a really fantastic stay so will definitely be going back again. I think the location alone makes it a great option for those wanting to visit Dali museum or Banyoles lake etc and for city people living in apartments, it's an absolute luxury to have so much outside space for the kids. They just loved it!
