Villa Selena Spain
Holiday Home Rental Description
A masterpiece of traditional architecture and rustic charm, Villa Serena is a unique, homely villa in the peace and quiet of the Gavarres massif, near to the town of Cruïlles in the Baix Empordà.
The exterior is a welcoming fusion of farmhouse and modern delight, and the interiors are equally cosy and inviting. The main living space is a large, beautiful and characterful space, with stone interior walls and natural textures and materials throughout. There is a comfy sofa corner in front of the magnificent fireplace and modern TV, and a large, formal dining area to the other side of the room. The large, traditionally styled kitchen extends to one side in a wonderfully sociable open plan design, and features everything you could need for rustling up a treat! The fusion of traditional beauty and modern utility sees the inclusion of Wi-Fi throughout the entire villa. The farm is completely self-sufficient for energy, using solar power, water from the 5-centuries-old wells and wood from the forest for heating – but don’t worry, there’s a back-up generator to guarantee energy throughout your stay!
There are four bedrooms in total, with two on each floor. Both ground-floor bedrooms enjoy direct access to the garden, as well as fabulous private bathroom facilities, including showers integrated with the living areas for a fabulous open atmosphere. One of these rooms has a single bed and can be used instead as a massage room, if you would prefer. The second has a fabulous king-size bed. There is a second double room upstairs (the jaw-dropping master bedroom) and a gorgeous twin room. On the first-floor you can enjoy a huge private terrace directly from each room, which include a casual seating area and parasol for soaking up the warmth and sunshine in privacy! The master-suite features a small kitchen area, providing you with yet more privacy and space for preparing your morning coffee to be enjoyed on your balcony overlooking the sublime landscape! Double sofa-beds in each of these rooms are ideal for integrating more guests into your holiday. These two vastly spacious and beautiful first-floor rooms are connected directly. The accompanying ensuite bathrooms are elegant and beautiful, and in one, the basins are made from an ancient stone!
Your fabulous garden surrounds the entire house, with endless seating areas, dining options and, of course, space! There’s all the room you could dream of for fun and games for all ages, topped off with the incredible private swimming pool, available year-round for your all your bathing desires!
