Filled with history and character in an unspoilt hamlet, this Mediterranean retreat is great for family and friends

So many thoughtful details here on the hillside – it’s welcoming, unpretentious and really conveys the love Sue and Ben have for Spain – and India. On the ground floor find the living/dining room and kitchen, open plan so everybody can join in with cooking under the vaulted ceiling. Upstairs is another living area, kitchenette and the twin bedrooms; on the top floor you have two more en suite doubles, accessed via separate exterior staircases - super for those wanting more privacy.

La Vall de Santa Creu is fascinating. The village square where folk used to do their washing and collect their spring water is still the beating heart of the place for celebrations and fiestas. Not much has changed in its rambling streets as it is protected by being in a National Park.

Wander to the village restaurant which has a pleasant garden for eating outdoors; there may be a concert or an exhibition on at the new cultural centre afterwards. Walk to the beach or drive five minutes and you’re in the bustling port with bobbing boats and colourful fishing nets, plus diving, snorkelling and windsurfing.

  • Casa de la Fuente is on the edge of the village of La Vall de Santa Creu, which overlooks the wild and beautiful valley.
  • Enjoy a nice meal at the restaurant and bar with terrace and beer garden in the village, open mid-June to mid-September.
  • In the spring and early summer nature lovers will enjoy walking in the valley, which is full of beautiful birds - Hoopoes,, Golden |Orioles, Bee Eaters, and wonderful wild flowers particularly in May and June..
  • Enjoy a day out at the beach, just a few minutes away by car (or 15 minutes on foot). Great snorkeling and rock pooling.
  • From the house, one can admire the famous Romanesque monastery, San Pere de Rodes (now floodlit every night).
  • Port de la Selva and its excellent restaurants and shops is only 2 miles from the house.- and still unspoilt, no high rise.Many medieval towns and villages and Romanesque churches and monasteries within an hour's distance.
