It's hard to imagine a more unique holiday home; here, you will stay in a magnificent castle on a mountain - only surrounded by other mountains, forests and stunning, untouched nature. From the great house, you will have a 360-degree view of valleys and unique landscapes; you can even catch a glimpse of the Costa Brava coast. You will not find a house that is more suitable for a get-away from the hustle and bustle. Here, you can just sit back in a lounger with a cold drink and enjoy the warmth and the fresh mountain air. And yet, the owner of the house has attributed the house with the slogan “In the middle of nowhere, connected to everywhere”, which is as true as I said - there’s just half an hour from your privately lying castle to Costa Brava and about 12 minutes to the nearest village with supermarket, restaurant, etc.
The holiday home’s facilities are numerous - the highlight is of course the 15-meter pool that overlooks the horizon and the beautiful scenery. The pool has varying depths and a Jacuzzi function at one end. With the pool comes several sun loungers and other seating arrangements, where you can sit with a cold drink and enjoy the view and the lovely Catalan sun with the unique opportunity to just take a dip in the refreshing water at any given time. On the same side of the house as the pool, lies the beautiful garden with several levels and all sorts of beautiful flowers and plants - but in reality, the entire area is your garden; you can freely move in the countryside that surrounds the castle. Besides this, there is a large courtyard with room for almost everything in might want - you can, for instance, move the mobile grill in there and have a barbecue party.
What we refer to as castle was originally a place of religious relevance. The building consists of a monastery and a church that dates back to 1690 and was actively used by monks until 1822. Parts of both the monastery and the church was rebuilt in the 1800s. The well-preserved building contains an incredible amount of history, which also is noticeable when you walk around the grounds. The holiday home is now decorated with modern furniture and tools - along with the old exterior, the holiday home achieves a perfect combination of the old & historic and the new & modern. The great part about this is that you get an exciting cultural experience without losing access to new smart devices such as WiFi-Internet. The rooms in La Monastir de Santes has been specially designed by a young designer.
The house is divided into "apartments", which means that the rooms are distributed into separate units around the castle, where there are several rooms in many of the units. There is a total of seven of these "apartments" with 10 rooms and space for 26 people in total. With the 10 rooms comes 6 bathrooms of which 3 are en-suite. Furthermore, 2 of the rooms have direct access to the pool area. There are multiple well-equipped kitchens as well as a living room with flat-screen TV and several seating arrangements. There is also, in connection with the kitchens, several dining tables, so you can enjoy meals together.
Nearby activities includes bike rentals, hiking trails, horse riding, golf and more. Many of the activities are related to nature and contribute to a special experience in the beautiful countryside that surrounds the house.
The castle is also optimal for events such as weddings or alike. This is partly due to the fact, that a part of the building was made into a beautiful hall with room for about 200 people recently.
