Joan’s house was a wonderful home base for several weeks during our extended stay this summer in Baix Emporda. The village house, which was recently renovated, is beautiful, airy, comfortable and spotless! The stone walls and vaulted stone ceiling are wonderful examples of Catalan architecture and are present while still having all the conveniences and comforts of a modern home. The views of the village from the back of the house are particularly lovely and the location of the house near the plaza was a plus.
We frequently prepared meals while staying at the house and the kitchen was very well equipped and the lighting and layout of the kitchen made it a pleasure to use.
The gated courtyard at the back of the house, which contained a covered porch, was a tranquil, lovely spot to sit both during the day and in the evening for dinner or drinks. As cyclists doing almost daily bike rides in the area, we also appreciated that the courtyard made getting the bikes in and out quite easy. There was always nearby, convenient parking for the car as well.
Joan was a friendly and attentive host who made us feel at home and was prompt in responding to all messages. I would enthusiastically recommend Joan’s house to anyone visiting the area.
