Holiday Home Rental Description
Located in the district of Queralt in the Pallargues, near the historical city of Lleida, La Torre Pelagalls is the ideal holiday accommodation for those who are looking for somewhere truly unique to stay during their sunshine break with family or friends. This completely restored 16th-century medieval tower offers guests both history and beauty, accommodating up to four people across two bedrooms, with a sofa bed allowing for an additional two guests. What’s even better is that it is attached to our other property,
Masia Pelagalls, so this is a great option for large groups.
Beautifully designed in ancient stone and quality wood, this spectacular property is certainly a talking point, perfectly combining traditional, historic features with luxurious modern stylings and amenities. The decor throughout the property is fresh and natural, with whitewashed walls, sprays of beautiful exposed stonework, beamed ceilings, and light wooden furnishings. The living space is bright and open-plan, with large windows allowing in lots of natural light. The room features a cosy lounge area with a comfy corner sofa and flatscreen TV, a handsomely crafted table accommodating up to four guests, and a well-equipped kitchen. Homely and welcoming with a delightful rustic flavour, this charming floor has everything you and your guests will need to relax, cook and dine together, and it is the perfect place to unwind and recharge your batteries.
The villa’s spacious bedrooms are equally relaxing and feature the same neutral decor, with the double bed in one room situated under a glorious stone archway and the other room featuring beautiful rustic wooden beamed ceilings. Both rooms are havens of peace and tranquillity, with sumptuously soft beds and elegant wooden furnishings. Guests staying at La Torre Pelagalls share a large, modern bathroom, complete with a hydromassage bathtub and shower – for the ultimate in holiday luxury.
The views from the villa’s grounds are breathtaking, looking out over the rural county of La Segarra. Guests here can enjoy relaxing on the fully furnished terrace or take a dip in the villa’s private jacuzzi before grilling up a feast on the barbecue to enjoy alfresco while taking in those stunning countryside vistas. La Torre Pelagalls is situated in the district of Queralt, an area considered the centre of the natural region of the Baixa Segarra. This beautiful area is steeped in history, with the main monuments, such as the Castell dels Comtes, acting as a cultural and social centre and revealing architectural styles like Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque. Within the old town, the Church of Santa Maria is a magnificent example of the Catalan Gothic style, featuring a distinctive bell tower and interior altarpiece. Nearby is Cal Jaume Punto, a drugstore and confectionary store dating back to 1848, which was closed in 1960 only to reopen in 2017 to welcome visitors. The store retains not only its original light, windows and furnishings but also all of the products and materials – it’s a definite must-see attraction for history lovers.
Other historical attractions of the city include the monumental fountains that date back to 1614, as well as the old laundries, which are situated at the birthplace of the Gaia River. From here, guests can enjoy the well-known Route of the Mills, a route which reveals elements essential to the use of water in the region, including the lock, aqueduct, flour mills and ice wells.
La Torre Pelagalls is situated 40 minutes from Lleida, a city whose history dates all the way back to the 4th century BC. In the 13th century, construction of the Seu Vella de Lleida Cathedral began on the site of a former mosque and today stands as a symbol of the city – visible from wherever you happen to be. Strolling around the old city, visitors will see buildings dating from the modernist era, as well as the Palace of La Paeria, which today serves as home to the city council, and from here take a stroll along the river bank in La Mitjana Park – the jewel in Lleida’s ecological crown. This amazing water park was declared an Area of Natural Interest in 1979 and features a unique microclimate that features leafy river woodland and flora, including water lilies, yellow irises and bullrushes. For those who want to do more than just marvel at the surroundings, the leisure area here offers guided tours and also houses a permanent exhibition and audiovisual of the park.
