La Pedra Remenca

Our recent vacation at La Pedra was simply fantastic and in many ways exceeded our expectations. The property and sweeping views of this Catalonian Valley were as breathtaking as described. The cottage has been beautifully restored with a traveler’s every need taken into account, from the fully stocked kitchen, to the luxurious bed linens and towels, to the maps, books and personal recommendations of nearby activities provided by Natalia, the owner of La Pedra.

Our recent vacation at La Pedra was simply fantastic and in many ways exceeded our expectations. The property and sweeping views of this Catalonian Valley were as breathtaking as described. The cottage has been beautifully restored with a traveler’s every need taken into account, from the fully stocked kitchen, to the luxurious bed linens and towels, to the maps, books and personal recommendations of nearby activities provided by Natalia, the owner of La Pedra. She has even planted a robust vegetable garden on the property that she maintains for sole use by her guests!

When we made our travel plans we had hoped to find something in the country, as a home base for hiking that would be easily accessible to and from Barcelona and surrounding communities. We found this in La Pedra, but also much more – a secluded, romantic hideaway that is charming and comfortable right down to the cozy his and her bathrobes provided for our use.

We also found Natalia to be the perfect host that went out of her way to ensure our enjoyment whether we wanted privacy or we asked for her recommendations on hikes, activities and places for lunch and dinner. It’s obvious that she genuinely cares about helping guests create wonderful and personalized holiday experiences. And when we left La Pedra we asked for Natalia’s suggestions for our extended stay in Barcelona. She suggested sights, restaurants and experiences that the average traveler would have missed and that ended up being some of our most ‘perfect moments’!

We would definitely recommend La Pedra to friends and relatives and are planning ourselves to return to this special place.

We recently discovered the breathtaking beauty of the region of Girona, in northern Spain. It has a wealth of options for tourists who appreciate leaving the beaten track in search of a more authentic experience of Spain. In addition to the beautiful city of Girona and the narrow, winding streets of its old town, you can visit the national park of La Garrotxa, once alive with volcanos and now a verdant patchwork of mountains, valleys and medieval villages. We rented a house in the countryside of the Valle de Llemena in La Garrotxa, which provided the perfect base from which to explore the region. We heartily recommend La Pedra Remenca, a beautifully restored home from home full of interesting antique furniture and set in a lovely garden with its own pool. The owner, Natalia, speaks fluent English and is on hand with plenty of tips and suggestions for making the most of your stay. You can also visit the famous Costa Brava, with its sandy beaches and fishing villages, and are a mere day trip away from the Catalonian capital of Barcelona.
