DescriptionYou will find this nice holiday home with a beautiful sea view in the upper part of L’Estartit, a small town and seaside resort situated in the Spanish region of Catalonia, on the northern end of the Costa Brava. L’Estartit is a small and very pretty family resort, nestled at the foot of the impressive Montgri mountain range and presided over by a 13th century castle. L´Estartit's position, between the mountains and the plain of the River Ter, gives it the dual advantage of 15 kilometres of beautiful rocky coastline together with one of the longest sandy beaches on the Costa Brava. The resort is 60 kilometres south of the French border and only 40 kilometres from the nearest international airport (Gerona). Most visitors who travel by air fly in to Barcelona airport, 150 kilometres south, which handles a far greater number of international flights. The geographical position and climate of this area of the Costa Brava make L’Estartit a privileged and ideal place to enjoy a pleasant holiday any time of the year.

Local areaThis once sleepy fishing village has become a popular holiday destination with Spaniards and international tourists, especially the British, Dutch and Germans. Being a fairly quiet and relaxed resort, it appeals mostly to families with young children. However, there are also plenty of leisure activities and night clubs to keep teenagers amused during the summer months. L’Estartit still retains the old world charm of a traditional Spanish fishing harbour. One of its major assets is the fact that it overlooks the lovely Medes Islands, an archipelago of seven islands which together make up one of the most important nature and marine reserves in the western Mediterranean. You'll find L’Estartit to be a compact resort with plenty of local shops, supermarkets, bars and restaurants, offering international and Catalan dishes, including fresh seafood. If you're tired of the beach, there are plenty of leisure activities to enjoy including sailing, boat excursions, golf, tennis, cycling and horseback riding. L’Estartit is also ideally placed for some great family days out. Europe's biggest water park is just outside Lloret de Mar and Marine World, where the numerous attractions include dolphin and sea lion shows. |
