Note

If you'd like a holiday!

Should you wish to arrive to the area early or stay on longer after the wedding, there are lots of holiday options. The beautiful coastline of Costa Brava is just a few kilometres away from the hotel. The beaches are popular during the summer with plenty of accommodation choices. If you want to explore the best of Costa Brava's little villages, hidden coves and beaches then renting a car would be advised. The region also offers countless hiking opportunities, both in the Pyrenees and along Costa Brava. There are plenty of fantastic options for one-day hikes, or longer, if you're interested in a more active holiday. Also nearby is the historic city of Girona, with its quaint cobbled streets and architectural landmarks. Lastly, the vibrant and cosmopolitan city of Barcelona would make for an ideal city break.
