Description of facilities: Please note the air-conditioning is in all of the bedrooms and not living areas..
Description inside property: Now with free WiFi internet.
Can Solaric is a magnificent restored farmhouse, known to the Catalan as a traditional Masia, with spectacular views of the Pyrenees Mountains. It is situated in northeast Spain close to many historic towns and villages and within an easy drive time of the old fishing ports of the Costa Brava and their splendid beaches, but also skiing in the mountains of the Pyrenees.
The property itself is totally secluded and set in its own 2 acres of beautiful wooded grounds and landscaped garden, with many fruit trees including lemon, fig and walnut which gives an idealistic setting with the fabulous views of the mountains. The gardens are maintained by our local gardener who will also be responsible each week for maintaining the swimming pool.
The property is beautifully appointed with the very latest in home comforts, including full central heating and heating to the 30 x 15 ft pool for off-season rentals. There are several covered terraces with three outside separate patios and chairs and a bar-be-cue area for the summer. The accommodation includes 6 double bedrooms, each with its own en-suite bathroom, and comfortably sleeps 12 adult guests. There is also a Jacuzzi and sauna. There is a fully equipped and spacious kitchen, which includes the working inglenook fireplace.
Access by the front door leads into the stone flagged entrance hall with open access to the garden room with table, chairs and a small fountain. This leads directly into the bar with its own seating area, an ideal meeting place for pre-dinner drinks. All the rooms on the ground floor have the original vaulted ceilings. Stairs lead into the dining room with its open balcony, equipped with a selection of books, videos, board games and chess table.
Doors lead from the dining room to the kitchen with an open plan breakfast room (doors from the kitchen also lead out on to the large terrace) or into a comfortably appointed sitting room. The sitting room has satellite television and there are French doors leading on to the terrace overlooking the garden and a 10 by 5 metre swimming pool. This floor also includes the master bedroom with an open balcony and leads into the very large bathroom, which includes the Jacuzzi.
Stairs lead to the second floor with its large arched covered terrace and magnificent old rustic dining table which seats 12 very comfortably. There is a split-level lounge area with comfortable chairs, table and hammock, ideal for smoking and coffee after dinner. The views from this top terrace are spectacular as they overlook the Pyrenees. Swing here gently in the hammock as the sun sets slowly over the Pyrenees. This area can be opened up for dancing if required.
In the secluded garden there are numerous loungers for use by the large swimming pool, a selection of outside games and outside dining table / chairs and parasol. There is a further seating area outside the entrance to the sauna and the garden room opens directly on to the bar-be-cue enclosure with a built in bar-be-cue. Two mountain bikes are supplied.
Due to the villa being very popular for this sport, for this season we have increased the number of mountain bikes available to our clients at the villa from 2, to 4 cycles. Should you require more, they can be hired in the nearby town of Banyoles.
A kitchen extension has enabled much larger working surfaces on new granite tops and there are numerous cupboards. In addition to the automatic dishwasher, oven and burners there is a press button ground coffee machine and finally, an in-house washing machine and spin dryer. At the end of the new kitchen, we have incorporated a small breakfast bar.
