There is truth in advertising, after all. This is indeed a magnificent house, as the headline in the posting says. From the myriad personal details to how well the property is taken care of, it's easy to tell this is not just a rental but a family house that shows great pride of ownership.
The house was spotlessly clean upon our arrival. The beds are comfortable, the kitchen very well appointed, the living and dining rooms ample and suitable for a large family or two small ones.
But the highlight for us was the barbecue area, which would be a treat for anybody who likes grilling and eating outdoors. Not only does the table outside seat 10 with room to spare, but they have set up what's essentially a second kitchen alongside the grill, with a refrigerator, dishwasher, sink and gas-powered burner. So you can do all the prep and cleanup in the BBQ area while enjoying the company of your friends and relatives next to you in the pool. We took full advantage of those facilities and enjoyed them immensely. I would recommend not diving head-first into the pool because the deep part gets shallow pretty quickly, but otherwise the pool is a delight.
We also really liked having a full-service supermarket less than a five-minute walk away. The Jodofi market has just about anything you would need and the prices are reasonable, especially for wine.
My wife and l made the one-mile trek to the center of town on foot several times, and Begur is absolutely charming and worth exploring. But the walk from the house is steep and rather challenging for some people. My parents, who are in their 80s, did it once and then asked for a ride the other times we went into town. For younger folks, though, it was quite doable and a nice bit of exercise.
There are several other walks you can undertake from the house, to lovely beaches like Aiguablava, Sa Tuna and Tamariu, and they're all within an hour one way. We strongly recommend them if you're into hiking. But even if you're not, we give this house the highest marks.
