Villa Ocells Spain
Holiday Home Rental Description
Located a short drive from the charming walled medieval town of Tossa de Mar, Villa Ocells offers you a great base for exploring this stunning area of the Costa Brava. Offering four bedrooms, this relaxing holiday home is filled with everything you need to feel at home; a great place for you and your family to enjoy some quality time together away from the nuances of day to day life.
With large windows or patio doors in every room, the traditional interiors of Villa Ocells are filled with light, creating tranquil living spaces for you to relax in. The décor is traditional throughout, with classic light fittings, pretty tiling and homely furnishings, knitting together to create a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Entering on the ground floor, the main living space, and heart of the home is an open plan living and dining room. The round dining table has room for four guests to sit together, with sofas arranged around a fireplace, perfect for cosy evenings indoors in the cooler months of the year. Glass doors slide open at one end of the room to the villa’s tranquil balcony, a sun trap, this simple piece of outdoor space offer views out across the treetops and surrounding properties, with the mountains rising in the distance. At the opposite end of the room, a door leads through to the villa’s well-equipped traditional kitchen. There are two bedrooms on this floor, a double and a twin, both with direct access to the terrace, perfect for any early risers that want to stroll outside the moment they awake, enjoying the glow of the morning sun. The lower ground floor offers two further good-sized bedrooms, a double and a twin, alongside a shower room for them to share.
Outside, you will quickly find our favourite part of this property! The traditional built-in barbecue, with its timber shelter and attractive tiling, sits in a sheltered spot of the garden. With an adjacent dining table, you can enjoy long afternoons in the sun, firing up the barbecue to grill fresh and local ingredients, pairing the meal with a glass or two of Spanish wine – is there anything better! Kid’s will love the villa’s private swimming pool, and we’re sure your whole group will love the private outdoor space, soaking up every last minute in the Costa Brava sunshine!
Villa Ocells sits in a quiet spot, just 4 km from the lovely and peaceful Cala Canyelles beach and 7 km from the centre of Tossa de Mar. Close to all the renowned, beautiful attractions, the Costa Brava has to offer; this is a great base for exploring a fabulous area!
The Costa Brava’s rugged coastline stretches from Blanes to the French Border, scattered with golden sandy beaches, quiet coves and energetic seaside towns. The area becomes more and more popular each year for its relaxing atmosphere, delicious food and even tastier wine! The summer months see this beautiful part of the world bustling with activity, the streets alive with local festivals and music performances and the beaches busy with visitors. In the winter months, the Mediterranean climate means it is still a great spot to visit, with a much quieter and more tranquil atmosphere to enjoy!
Cala Canyelles beach can be recognised by its coarse white sand and crystal-clear seawater. Visitors can rent parasols and deck chairs as well as pedal boats, parasailing, water-skiing and canoeing – which will certainly keep kids and the more playful adults entertained! The beachfront restaurant serves up delicious fresh fish and huge paellas that cannot be missed.
Tossa de Mar is a beautiful walled medieval town, unlike anywhere you may have visited before. A little quieter than the busy neighbouring town of Lloret de Mar, this historic town appeals to families, couples and friends who want to immerse themselves in a little more of the area’s history and culture. The maze of narrow cobbled streets takes you on an adventure between the charming old houses, just make sure you bring your camera along! The old town (Vila Vella) is located within the medieval walls, and you can venture along the walls themselves, enjoying the breath-taking views of the city and the Sea. Brimming with tapas bars, restaurants and shops, Tossa de Mar has everything you could need, and the beaches are as beautiful as you might expect, with such an attractive town as the backdrop. You can even head out on a boat trip, capturing this striking seaside town from a different perspective!
