Oscar was a perfect host and his home is perfectly situated. The basement apartment is super charming and the kitchen is equipped with everything you could need. The house is at the edge of a steep drop down to the sea, and Oscar and his dog Doug invited me on two fantastic and exhilarating hikes. Not for the faint of heart but just what I was needing. Walk 5 minutes in the other direction from the Mediterranean through medieval cobble stone streets and you land in the heart of Begur with all its excellent restaurants and shops, but with the charm of a small medieval village. The beaches in the area are wonderful and the water is perfect. Diving and snorkeling are available too. And then you can drive just a few minutes to several other medieval villages in the area. I can't wait to go back.
