Villa Vines is located just 50 minutes from Barcelona and just 10 minutes from the beautiful, historic city of Girona. Guests can explore the Maresme and Costa Brava coastlines, visit authentic ancient villages and discover the mountain scenery. It is close to the centre of Lloret de Mar, one of Spain’s busiest holiday resorts. As well as a vibrant nightlife, theme parks and much entertainment, it offers wonderful landscapes and plenty of delightful walks along the coast or through the forest. The narrow winding streets of the Old Town are very enjoyable, brimming with shops, bars and restaurants, as are the famous landscaped Santa Clotilde Gardens, filled with fountains, ponds and beautiful sculptures. Boasting an attractive historic centre and beautiful, fascinating buildings, visitors can explore and learn about the history of the town. The Church of Sant Roma is fabulous. The front of the church is in Gothic style built between 1509 and 1522 but inside you will see the art of the Catalan modernism movement. Located on the top of the cliff between Cala Boadella and Fenals Beach, Santa Clotilde Gardens are one of Lloret de Mar’s best kept treasures. Construction on the gardens began in 1917 when the Marquis Roviralta met Clotilde Rocamora but sadly she died before they were complete. He later married his second wife and work resumed though the gardens carry Clotilde’s name. There are some wonderful festivals and events in the gardens including the Clon Festival concert series and the Lloret Outdoor Summer Festival. Throughout Lloret de Mar, visitors enjoy many other festivals and fairs including the Fair of the Americans, Fenals de Musica at Fenals Beach, the Medieval Fair and the annual Carnival. The town comes alive in a thousand colours with parades, costumes, parties and music during the Lloret Carnival. Those that love the outdoors can take to many of the footpaths that trace their way along the coastline or wind their way into the forests. Two sections of the CR92 Mediterranean Trail pass through the town.
Passing through many agricultural and craft-focused villages, Girona is Northern Catalonia’s largest city, again boasting a fascinating history. It is a fabulous jewellery box of galleries, museums, Gothic churches and a wonderful dining scene, all sprinkled along a web of cobbled lanes and medieval walls. The Riu Onyar separates the walkable historic centre from the gleaming commercial centre on the west.
Guests also enjoying heading to Catalonia’s Pyranees, an all-season playground offering raw natural beauty, fantastic skiing and snowboarding, incredible hiking paths to the jewel-like lakes and valleys of the Parc Nacional d’Aiguestortes i Estancy de Sant Maurici, the low-lying countryside of Cerdanya and the dramatic climbing terrain of the Serra del Cadi. With majestic scenery, plunging valleys, snow-dusted peaks, thousand-year-old monasteries, outstanding Romanesque architecture and fabulous gastronomy, hikes within the Catalan Pyranees uncover so many delights.
Banyoles Lake is where the 1992 Olympic rowing races took place. It is an excellent location for picnics. The neighbouring town of La Bisbal is the centre of Catalonia’s ceramics industry so a good place to pick up a few souvenirs. It is also home to the Palace Castle of the Bishops of Girona.
