A place to feel at home. A rural “Masia” (farmhouse) built in 1837 and completely renovated, featuring a dining room under a Catalan vault with a wood fireplace, a library full of books, a billiard, a garden with a pool and much more.
We’ll have the whole house for ourselves where we will relax, connect and eat great local cuisine.

Ride with a Local
Growing up in Girona and training at a pro level when he was youngster, Joan knows the region like the back of his hand. He will lead us to the most iconic roads of the Girona region but most of the times we will discover the unexplored areas, avoiding the busy places so that you get the true feeling of the Costa Brava.
The perfect mix of unexplored territory and the beauty of the Girona Region.
Two long rides on the second and third day. Around 80km and 110km.
Two shorter rides. The welcome and farewell rides. Around 40km.
If you feel it’s too much, you’ll be free to stay in the house and relax. We’ll also have a support Van following us, providing water and food during the long rides.
