Gorgeous villa, sleeps 12, pool, tennis court, stunning views in the Costa Brava
Can Lledo is totally unique - modern, spacious and open-plan, yet this farmhouse conversion still retains many original features. It is nestled in the Gavarres, part of the Costa Brava, outside of Girona, in an area of outstanding natural beauty. With views down to the coast that take your breath away, this is a little slice of heaven! Within these hills, the house is set in 54 acres, with truly beautiful gardens, a stunning infinity swimming pool, tennis court, children a playground, treehouse and trampoline, indoor games room, and an abundance of natural forest paths to explore. We have a tree house on the path down to one of our fields, and this begins a walk which takes about an hour to explore the trails within our land.
The interior is sleek and modern and all rooms have been thoughtfully furnished. Upstairs are 4 large double bedrooms, 3 of which have incredible panoramic windows and 1 boasts a terrace and chairs for a little more 'me' time. There is room with 2 bunk beds, which is perfect for children, and a couple of fold-down beds and cots should you need more beds. There is another double bedroom downstairs with optional twin beds. All bedrooms have modern ensuite bathrooms. Living space includes a large open-plan kitchen with all mod cons and a dining room that seats 12. There is a fully equipped utility room next to the kitchen. To make the most of the views, we have designed the house so that from the kitchen and dining room, you can look out of the enormous windows to take it in at all times.
A large yet cosy TV room adjoins the games room, and is the perfect place to chill out with a good dvd. The huge sofa can seat 10 people and there are bean bags and a rocking chair for extra relaxation. The games room is full of fun, with pool, a ping pong table, table football, and darts to get competitive.
The open-plan kitchen is centred around a big island, and opens onto an beautiful stone-arched outdoor eating area. The table seats 12, and is perfect for al fresco dining overlooking the pool. There is also a large chill-out sofa, swinging chair, and dining area below the pool, with stunning views and a built-in barbeque – perfect for evening cocktails and cooking. This gorgeous and spacious area is used for morning and evening yoga classes when retreats are run at the house.
Close to the house within our grounds, we have a tennis court with terrace and viewing platform, a tree house, a large wooden children’s playground, golf putting areas, and a large trampoline! As well as trails to hike around ☺
We have enclosed safe parking within the gated grounds of the house for at least 10 cars, and if you hire a 4x4 you can access all the many off road trails around the hills and land!
Website: Can Lledo has a private website giving further details of the house, the local area, things to do and further information about local amenities. At the time of booking, we can give you access to the website to help you plan your stay.
Activities: There are so many things to do in the area, although you may want to sit back and relax by the pool for the week at the house. We have a detailed information folder at the house listing everything there is to do in the area. Some examples of activities you can do are: kite surfing, windsurfing, fishing, sailing, diving, ballooning, golf cycling, cycling, horse riding, hiking, go karting, boat trips and kayaking.
Culture: There are many beautiful historic towns near Can Lledo and again we list all of these attractions on our website and also in our information folder. You might want to visit the stunning cathedral or walk the wall of the old town in Girona. You may want to drive for an hour south to Barcelona. There are various museums, the house and birth place of Salvador Dali, stunning beach coves and seaside towns such as Palafrugell, Sa Riera, Begur and Llafranc. Besalu bridge is worth a trip, as is Cadaques. The Pyrenees are breath taking on the drive from the airport up to Can Lledo, and only an hours drive away.
Extras: As well as our private website and information book with details and information on so many local attractions, we can also put you in touch with a number of people who might make your holiday more relaxing and special. Should you want to go out and leave the children, we have a great local babysitter; if you would like an evening of Catalan cuisine, we can organise a chef to come to the house; and if you feel like you need to unwind even further, we have a yoga teacher and massage therapists who can come to the house for individual classes and sessions.
The villa is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 6 bathrooms, and a balcony. There's space to spread out with 6 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a private pool, a washing machine, and a coffee maker. Housekeeping is available on request.

A little piece of heaven in the hills of Spain!
I loved it here! Beautiful villa, stunning pool views and all the extras you'd ever wish for in a holiday rental. Great for all ages, and the two children we had with us in the group had a fabulous time. We will definitely be back! Thank you for such a special time!
This place was really great - it's a beautiful house which is very well maintained, offering great entertainment for kids (games, trampoline, lot of space, pool) and adults (lounge, tennis court, etc.). The location gives a lot of privacy and incredible views and outlook. Great interaction and quick reply by the owner and well supported by house keeper on the ground. Thanks - amazing place i would recommend to larger families and groups!

The Most Beautiful Place....
We have stayed here 3 times now and every holiday has been amazing. The views are breathtaking, the pool is brilliant for both small and big children and the house lends its self to being both social and also having separate areas. We had a chef one evening that came and cooked giant prawns and squid on the bbq that the owners arranged for us - I would highly recommend this! What a wonderful house to stay in that I cannot recommend highly enough.

4 nights of bliss
My four nights at Can Lledo were the first I had spent away from my daughter since her birth and there couldn't have been anywhere better to be.
Everything about this house is wonderful - the views, the luxe bedrooms/bathrooms/kitchen etc, the general feeling of space, the pool, the location - not too far from anywhere but just isolated enough to feel really peaceful.
This house is a true gem - not one to be missed.

Every couple of years a group (8) of us get together to celebrate milestone birthdays...this is the third such get together after Tuscany and Provence. Can Lledo was just fantastic. The property was first class, amenities great and the pool was "to die for"....and the weather... I can thoroughly recommend it...

Idyllic location, perfect for a golf break
I stayed at this beautiful property with two friends for long golfing weekend in early October. Access is very quick from Girona airport -and the property has been reconstructed to 5* standard throughout. The view is exceptional, the house most comfortable and the weather throughout our stay was perfect. We played PGA Catalunia and Gold D'Aro - both within ready driving distance.
For golfers (and any non-golfing other halves) - this is a wonderful place to go for a week's break. Very strongly recommended.

Truly stunning villa and location
The best part of staying at Can Lledo was opening the bedroom window in the morning and seeing the breathtaking view. That combined with the peace and tranquility of the setting and beautiful interior created by Nicola and Nicholas makes for a really fabulous holiday.
It's also worth mentioning that Girona airport is really convenient and with Barcelona an hour away this is a great spot for opening up Catalonia - a hire car is a must to make the most of it.
I would absolutely recommend this villa, it is big and versatile and an ideal base from which to explore the region, with the benefit of rural tranquility for days by the pool and views to die for.
This is a gorgeous home with amazing property and amenities. It is impossible to list all the extra features that make it special. Their caretaker (Parker) is a joy to work with. There were some challenges: power going out several times, flies and hornets, and the long and windy road to get to and from the property. It is worth all of that for this spectacular home, gorgeous pool and tennis court, trampoline, etc. etc. Perfect for a large family.

A villa of the highest quality in a great location
Slightly off the beaten track, this villa is more reminiscent of a luxury pad near St Tropez than the rolling hills of Catalonia. The set up is first class with excellent facilities, including some superb quality bathrooms (some with amazing views) and bedrooms as well as a well fitted out kitchen. The grounds are spacious with plenty of room for a large group to spread out in, enjoying the gardens, views and, of course, the pool. Whilst there, my group took advantage of a number of the excellent golf courses, many only a short drive from the villa, including PGA Catalunya, Golf d'Aro and Golf Girona. Overall, an excellent villa that I would certainly recommend.
This has been the staycation of a lifetime for a large family gathering.
Spacious, well thought out and incredibly comfortable.
Parker is the best caretaker we have ever come across. He was charming and helpful and showed us around, but did not intrude.
We loved the outside seating area and the chance to relax. The property has everything that you could ever want, and it was very clean throughout.
The views are breathtaking and we felt so secluded and peaceful. We didn’t venture out - why would you when you have everything within the property?

Stunning retreat
Perfect house for a family holiday. I cannot recommend it highly enough. It's a short ride from Girona airport, in the most glorious of settings and a heaven for kids!! There is a pool, tennis court, trampoline and great games room. This in turn meant it was a heaven for the adults as they were kept entertained.
The house is big and well equipped so no one felt on top of each other which is a big bonus when there are 6 adults and 6 kids !!
There was lots to do in the vicinity and although we were all quite happy staying in at night there are some great restaurants near by. If you are going with children and fancy a night out I would suggest visiting Monelles.
Highly recommend visiting this beautiful corner of the world xx
Thank-you so much for a wonderful stay - the house is beautiful, comfortable and full of light. I loved the feel of the wooden floors under my feet in the upstairs rooms, and the coolness of the breeze through sliding doors to the wonderful land around...
The views of the hillsides looking out to the coast are absolutely stunning. When we arrived through Girona there had been some light rain and as we rose up through the hills it became a beautiful mist which filled the valleys and as the light shone through it was like a rainforest scene! Incredible scenery, especially the sunrise over the mediterranean views, and a fantastic location. Accessible but perfectly secluded.
We enjoyed our stay immensely and would definitely recommend it,
Thank-you for all your help in making it a special week for us all,
xxxx

A perfect holiday setting.
Having recently returned from a wonderful holiday to Can Lledo my lasting impression is of the beautiful setting. Nestled high in the hills of a beautiful forest It offers spectacular views looking over the unspoilt catalan countryside, right down to the ocean. It has been landscaped beautifully with a herb garden, lemon trees and lavender and poppies cascade the hills, attracting a swarm of beautiful butterflies.
Within the farmhouse all the rooms are light and modern, maintaining a stylish character and all have large windows ensuring the beautiful views are there on display.
We stayed here with 7 small children and everyone was able to enjoy the amazing facilities. From an infinity pool, to a tennis court, to a tree house, to a trampoline, to an amazing games room, to lovely little secluded areas ,there were ideal holiday activities for all ages.
A perfect holiday setting.

Something for Everyone
I've been to Can Lledo a few times now and I love it more and more each time. Each new trip I discover something new about the house or the surrounding countryside. It has a bit of everything - adventure, relaxation, luxury, fun, sun, tranquility, privacy... The house is a great mixture of old charm and modern convenience and the location and views are stunning. When you have spent the day by the pool, on the beach, roaming the countryside, playing table tennis etc. there is then a great selection of varied restaurants all within a short distance. It's also comforting to discover that the owner takes a very hands-on approach to the maintenance and service of the house which results in a great all round experience. I am going back and would definitely recommend it for a wide range of holidays...

Wonderful in Every Way
We, 5 of us, spent upwards of a week at Can Lledo in May and I must say, it was one of the best holidays we've spent anywhere. The villa is perfection with plenty of room for all of us (and more), an expansive view of the mountains, town, and Mediterranean, a gorgeous pool, excellent service from Sara and Tony, and on and on. The use of the Jeep was fantastic as we were able to drive at our leisure around the fantastic Costa Brava region. The house and grounds were perfectly maintained exactly as the photographs indicated. We particularly enjoyed several delicious lunches in surrounding towns and Tony's prepared supper was a delight. Both Sara and Tony were wonderful guides. We love them We were grateful for the booklet prepared by the owners which listed, often with photos, attractions, maps, activities, and restaurants. I highly recommend Can Lledo in every way. Can't wait to return with more friends!

A Stunning home with stunning views
It is not often anywhere I go exceeds my expectations, ESPECIALLY with children... but Can Lledo did just that. It was the perfect getaway with (or would be amazing without) kids. I can’t think of the last time I was so relaxed and enjoyed myself... it was definitely before children. It was just that, it was an actual Getaway. The views were incredible, the food and cava were even better than I had anticipated. It is paradise. I stopped several times throughout my stay to just enjoy the view. Everything is absolutely stunning. Can Lledo is a fabulous house with enough space to really spread out if you needed. Great for entertaining or separating the adults from the kids. It’s an amazingly thought out home. I am not one to ever write a review, so this should explain just how marvellous Can Lledo is for any kind of holiday you are looking for. Photos can’t do it justice.

A piece of Paradise
If you are looking for a peaceful stay away then this dream Villa is the one you are looking for. Surrounded by mountains it offers a views you will never forget. Just take a seat in the balcony, by the pool or some of many places around the house and relax. We stayed there with three families 6 adults and 6 children and everyone found a preferred activity the house offered - the kids enjoyed the heated pool (cost some extra but was worth it in the middle of autumn :)), as the adults were playing tennis and basketball and some of quest were even picking the mushrooms on the site :). The house was equipped with everything you need and in case you need a help, Parker, a really nice guy, looking at the household there, was always nearby and happy to help you. Make you shopping in Cassa de la Selva, in Caprabo . Nicola can give you good tips what you can buy there. If you are to lazy to cook for yourself, we suggest to use Cafe Frankfurt for take away. We used them in the last evening and the food we got was really good, also reasonable priced. Our best recommendations for this house, hope to come back here.

Beautiful & Peaceful Retreat
Can Lledo was the perfect place for our extended family to relax and unwind after several hectic days of sightseeing in Barcelona. The setting is gorgeous and every room in the villa has been thoughtfully decorated including lovely bed linens and towels. It was spacious, very clean and perfect in every way!
The owners provided an extensive array of information to help us enjoy our stay ~ maps as well as restaurant, shopping & sightseeing suggestions which were very helpful. There are some charming little towns nearby which were fun day trip destinations.
The kitchen is large and very well stocked. The big dining room table was nice for long, leisurely family dinners. We chose to have dinner at the villa every night knowing that the windy roads nearby might pose bit of a driving challenge at night. It worked out great! We even had a local chef come in and cook for us one evening. We honestly hated to venture far from Can Lledo during our stay…. it’s that beautiful!
There was something for everyone….a pool, brand new tennis court, game room, hiking paths, and hammock and lounge chairs for those who wanted to just relax. Such an amazing spot! We loved every minute of our stay and hope to return some day soon.

Amazing villa in a beautiful setting!
Before we arrived in Spain we had received such helpful tips, information and advice from the home owner Nicola, she is an absolute pleasure to do business with.
When we arrived at the villa we were met by the lovely Parker who showed us around and helped us with any questions we had.
Once we entered the villa we were so excited at how beautiful and big the house was, the pictures on the site really dont do it justice.
We were all blown away at how beautifully designed the villa was, it had the rustic charm of the farmhouse exterior but had a luxurious, modern interior with a well stocked kitchen, having everything we could possibly need made it such a joy to cook with a glass of wine in the evenings once the children were in bed.
A few evenings we used the BBQ area away from the house which also has a small kitchen and ate down there which was beautifully lit by fairy lights.
As we were sharing the villa with four other couples and four children it was a real bonus to have so many areas to use that it never ever felt cramped.
The layout is very well thought out.
My husband loved using the tennis courts nearby, I loved using the pool and going for walks with my son, infact there was so much to do that you could just stay and relax at the villa without having to leave.
We received tips from Nicola about where to shop, eat, visit and everything was very easy to find and conveniently located.
A few of our party went to the beach, a Salvador Dali Museum and Michelin starred restaurants, which i would recomend you book well in advance.
The food and inexpensive good wine in this area was a real highlight of our trip.
We organised a chef to come to the villa one evening to cook for all ten of us and a great time was had by all.
We had such a wonderful time away making some very special memories with family and friends, I highly recommend this property.
We travel lots and have never wanted to revisit a property or area but we will be back.
Can Lledo is a very special place.
