Mas Mateu, Costa Brava

Location

Situated within an impressive and expansive late 17th century Spanish estate, Mas Mateu is the perfect example of classic combining with contemporary to produce a match made in heaven. Steeped in Catalan history, the house is set amongst the undulating Gavarran Mountains with uninterrupted views of the Pyrenees in the far distance, yet still only 15 km from the rugged delights of the Costa Brava.

45 km from Girona Airport; 35 km from Girona; Under 2 hour’s drive from Barcelona (136 km); 2 hour drive from Barcelona Airport (150 km); Club Platja de Pals -12 km; Golf Serres de Pals - 9 km.

Half an hour’s drive to several of Costa Brava’s finest beaches, including Calella del Palafrugell, Aiguablava, L’Escala

The Property

Upon arrival at Mas Mateu the property’s vast classical wealth is immediately apparent. You are greeted by an entrance hall dressed from top to toe in Catalan traditions; from the ceramic flooring to the vaulted ceilings. This classical style is graced with the presence of the impressive contemporary stone staircase beckoning you to the heights above.

Off the entrance hall are a host of inviting lounges and living areas that will satisfy all needs; whether you are looking to recline into a deep state of relaxation in either the Spa or private cinema after a long 18-holes at the nearby golf course or whether you wish to grab some exercise in the well equipped gym after an exhausting day lounging by the exquisite infinity pool, all are possible within Mas Mateu’s resplendent walls.

Each bedroom is uniquely decorated in delicate Catalan tones, accompanied by locally sourced rugs, unique family heirlooms and individual fireplaces. Many enjoy far-reaching views of the Costa Brava from their own private terrace. Dining is a truly Catalan experience at Mas Mateu. Enjoy a Spanish banquet, freshly prepared by the in-house chef, under the stars on one of the many open terraces or eat in the elegant dining room, both perfect locations to ponder over a bottle of Rioja from the fully stocked wine cellar what the morning will bring; a day’s cycling in the glorious surrounding Gavarres National Park? Or perhaps a game of Padel - a traditional Catalonian form of tennis?

On the rare occasion that you need to venture outside of the estate, the surrounding region houses an abundance of celebrated restaurants, including El Bulli and El Cellar de Can Roca.
