About this property

Tower House (2 Bedroom, 1.5 bathroom, Sleeps 6)

Finca Paraiso is a spacious wooded estate on the border of the Darnius reservoir in the heart of the interior of the Costa Brava. The lake is uncrowded even in August and highly suitable for swimming, fishing and rowing. The surrounding area is excellent for walking, riding and other outdoor sports and the scenery with the backdrop of the Pyrenees, spectacular. Quaint stone built villages dot the surrounding area and the beautiful coves of the Alt Empordà seaside villages are within a 45 minute car drive. The town of Figueres with its Dalí museum, Thursday market and old town pedestrian shopping area is just 20 minutes by car and France is also easily accessible through the main La Jonquera frontier or the less travelled mountain passes. The loudest sound is the wind in the trees.


This is a small two storey house with its own garden area. It has two bedrooms and a bathroom on the first floor and a kitchen, dining/living room, hall and WC on the ground floor. There is a sofa bed on the ground floor which converts into a 150cm double bed. The kitchen contains a double sink, 4 hob gas cooker, oven, microwave, refrigerator, dishwasher, coffee machine and kettle. A washing machine is also available in a separate building and the apartment has an ironing board and iron. There is satellite TV and central heating. All linen is provided.

Tower House

Nice property with character and a bit off the beaten track which is just what we were looking for. It was great that the lake was so close and we could walk down to it every day to swim/cool off from the heat

Ein schöner ruhiger Ort mit vielen Möglichkeiten

Das Haus ist für vier ausreichend groß, die Lage in einem kleinen Park am Rande des Stausees läd zu Entspannen ein. Das klare Wasser im Stausee ist wunderbar um morgens eine Runde zu schwimmen. Die Korkeichenwälder sind ideales Wander und Mountainbike Gebiet.

Très belle adresse, dans la verdure et au calme

Cette location est une maison indépendante au sein d'une belle propriété arborée dans le nord de la Catalogne. Permet de rayonner dans les environs (Figueres, Cap Creus, Cadaques, Rosas et autres stations balnéaires). Accueil chaleureux, terrasse, de la place pour se garer juste derrière la maison, portail avec télécommande. Vraiment très pratique si vous voulez éviter la chaleur et la foule de la côte en plein mois d'août.

Très bon séjour

Il s’agit d’une très belle et grande propriété composée de quelques maisons. Endroit calme, ayant un accès presque direct au plan d’eau de Darnius qui est très joli et où on peut se baigner. La maison était propre et a convenu parfaitement. Patricia a été un hôte parfait avec nous. Nous avons passé un séjour très agréable en famille et avons beaucoup aimé l’endroit.

Toplocatie

Deze woning is zeer netjes, ruim voor gebruik met 4 personen. De eigenaresse Mrs Gill is er vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Het ligt vlak bij een restaurant aan het meer. Wij hebben hier twee weken met plezier mogen wonen.

Ruhiges Haus am See

Hinter dem Haus wohnt die Besitzerin (nette englische Rentnerin) und es gibt noch weitere Apartments von denen aber man nichts mitbekommt. Der See ist nebenan und fantastisch und man kann schön in der Gegend spazieren wenn es nicht zu heiß ist. Es ist ein Ort wo viele Hunde Gassi gehen und auch im See baden. Sollte man wissen und mögen. Der Fleischer vom Dorf Darnius ist der absolute Wahnsinn, Hammer lecker alles! Das Haus war nicht ganz sauber, leider. Die Besitzerin war aber bemüht uns mit allem zu helfen.

Emplacement idéal dans un cadre reposant

La propriété est idéalement placée pour profiter du lac de Darnius, une vaste retenue d'eau aussi belle que le lac de Sainte-Croix et encore plus tranquille. De nombreuses randonnées en moyenne montagne (800m - 1300 m) sont accessibles en 30 minutes environ. La maison est bien entretenue et ne possède aucun vis-à-vis sur les autres locations du domaine. Les chambres du haut sont relativement chaudes en été (mais les moustiquaires permettent de garder les fenêtres ouvertes) et la pièce du bas est équipée d'une climatisation très efficace. La propriétaire parle parfaitement français et donne des conseils avisés lorsqu'on la sollicite.

Très belle expérience

Cadre superbe, au calme, parfait pour se ressourcer, à 2 minutes à pied du lac. Très bon accueil, Patricia est une hôte à la fois attentionnée, pétillante et discrète qui prenait toujours le temps de répondre à nos questions. Maison très sympa, très propre et on ne manquait de rien. On a passé de supers vacances, nos enfants ont adoré :)

Parfait.

Le cadre est parfait, à 200m du lac très peu fréquenté (mois d'août). Pour l'acceuil il n'y a rien à dire les appartements son très bien équipés et quelqu'un est disponible en permanence pour répondre à nos demandes. Je recommande donc les yeux fermés
