The Costa Brava between the french border and Girona in Catalunya is considered one of the 10 best places to visit (if not to live) once in a life time.
There is a secluded countryside area in Costa Brava at Baix Emporda, called The Catalan Tuscany, as it is refferred by its similar beauty: Medieval cobblestone villages and authentically catalan unspoiled rolling hills and lush green landscapes just 20 min drive from the best beaches.
Villages not to be missed: Monells, Madremanya, Púbol (visit its Gaudi & Gala castle-museum), and Sant Marti Vell, a perfect location to indulge in a gem of a peaceful place, a medieval catalan stone house known as “Masia” transformed into a boutique tiny hotel :
HOSTAL LA LOLITA – Camí del Puig nº5, Sant Martí Vell, 17462 (Girona) – + 34 972.49.00.21 –
