Casa Joaquim is a beautiful and authentic Catalan holiday home where historic charm meets modern comfort. The centuries-old stone house is peacefully located near Figueres in Alt Empordà, surrounded by fields, woodland and open countryside.
With capacity for up to 21 guests, Casa Joaquim is an excellent choice for several families, multigenerational holidays or larger groups of friends looking for space, privacy and a wide range of activities in one place. At the same time, the house is ideally situated within easy reach of Figueres, Girona and both the long sandy beaches and small secluded coves of the Costa Brava.
Casa Joaquim has been carefully restored with respect for its original architecture. Thick stone walls, exposed wooden beams and bright living spaces create a warm and welcoming atmosphere, while modern facilities ensure a comfortable and relaxing holiday.
The house offers several cosy living areas, a spacious dining room and a well-equipped kitchen with plenty of room for preparing meals for the entire group. The large covered terrace quickly becomes a natural gathering place where meals can be enjoyed in the shade overlooking the garden and pool area.
One of the major advantages of Casa Joaquim is that all eight bedrooms have both air conditioning and a private bathroom. This provides a high level of comfort and privacy while ensuring pleasant temperatures during the warm summer months.
Each bedroom also has a television, and several rooms can be arranged flexibly with additional beds. Cots and highchairs are available for the youngest guests.
Casa Joaquim truly stands out when it comes to its outdoor facilities. The large private grounds provide plenty of space for both relaxation and activities, and the entire property is private, allowing guests to enjoy their holiday undisturbed.
The centrepiece is the impressive private swimming pool measuring 20 x 5 metres, offering ample space for both adults and children to swim, play and cool down.
Next to the main pool is a separate children’s pool where younger guests can splash and play in more manageable surroundings. The pool area is also fenced, providing additional peace of mind for families with small children.
Around the pool, guests will find sun loungers, shaded areas and several comfortable places to relax, enjoy a glass of wine or spend long summer days together.
Casa Joaquim is an ideal holiday home for guests who enjoy an active break. The property has its own private floodlit tennis court, allowing games to continue during the warm summer evenings.
There is also a private volleyball court, pétanque court and football pitch, as well as facilities for table tennis, badminton and basketball. This gives children, teenagers and adults plenty of activities without having to leave the property.
The wide selection of sports and leisure facilities makes Casa Joaquim particularly suitable for family holidays, multigenerational stays, groups of friends and smaller corporate gatherings.
Casa Joaquim has eight spacious bedrooms and capacity for up to 21 guests.
Every bedroom has its own private bathroom, air conditioning and television, providing an unusually high level of comfort and privacy for a larger group.
Several rooms can be arranged flexibly with additional beds, allowing the house to accommodate different types of families and groups.
Figueres, located only around 10 minutes from Casa Joaquim, is internationally famous for Salvador Dalí’s spectacular Theatre-Museum.
The museum contains an exceptional collection of Dalí’s works and is itself a surreal experience, with imaginative architecture, installations, sculptures and paintings. It is one of Catalonia’s best-known cultural attractions and an obvious choice for a day out during your stay.
Figueres also offers pleasant pedestrian streets, cafés, restaurants and a lively shopping area.
The beautiful coastline of the Costa Brava can be reached in approximately 30 minutes.
Here, guests can choose between long, family-friendly sandy beaches with plenty of space and the small characteristic calas – idyllic coves framed by rocks, pine trees and clear Mediterranean water.
Along much of the coastline runs the historic Camí de Ronda coastal path, which connects beaches, coves and small seaside towns while offering some of the finest views across the Mediterranean.
Two of the Costa Brava’s most popular destinations are within comfortable driving distance of Casa Joaquim.
Roses is known for its long sandy beach, pleasant seafront promenade, restaurants and excellent opportunities for water sports.
Continue through the beautiful coastal landscape and you will reach Cadaqués, considered by many to be one of the most beautiful towns on the Costa Brava. Its whitewashed houses, atmospheric harbour and narrow streets have attracted artists for many years, most famously Salvador Dalí, who lived in nearby Portlligat.
Girona, one of Catalonia’s most beautiful and atmospheric cities, can be reached in approximately 40 minutes.
Here you can explore the impressive medieval centre, the well-preserved Jewish quarter, the imposing cathedral and the colourful houses lining the River Onyar.
Girona is also known for its excellent culinary scene, ranging from welcoming tapas bars and local restaurants to internationally recognised dining experiences.
Casa Joaquim is located in the heart of Alt Empordà, a region where nature, culture, wine and gastronomy come together.
You can visit the medieval town of Besalú, explore the wine-producing areas of Empordà or go walking in the natural parks of Cap de Creus and Aiguamolls de l’Empordà.
The quiet roads and varied countryside are also ideal for cycling, while wine lovers can visit local wineries and sample some of the region’s distinctive wines.
The French border is less than an hour’s drive away, making it easy to combine a holiday in Catalonia with a day trip to the south of France.
The charming coastal town of Collioure is a popular destination with colourful houses, a beautiful harbour, welcoming restaurants and a distinctive Mediterranean atmosphere.
