About this property

Incredible hillside villa, stunning views, sleeps 12, superb pool, tennis

Can Lledo is totally unique - modern, spacious and open-plan, yet this farmhouse conversion still retains many original features. It is nestled in the Gavarres hills, an area of outstanding natural beauty, with views down to the Costa Brava that really take your breath away. Within these hills, the house is set in 54 acres, with truly beautiful gardens, a stunning infinity swimming pool, tennis court, children a playground, treehouse and trampoline, indoor games room, and an abundance of natural forest paths to explore. We have a tree house on the path down to one of our fields, and this begins a walk which takes about an hour to explore the trails within our land.

The interior is sleek and modern and all rooms have been thoughtfully furnished. Upstairs are 4 large double bedrooms, 3 of which have incredible panoramic windows and 1 boasts a terrace and chairs for a little more 'me' time. There is room with 2 bunk beds, which is perfect for children, and a couple of fold-down beds and cots should you need more beds. There is another double bedroom downstairs with optional twin beds. All bedrooms have modern ensuite bathrooms.
Living space includes a large open-plan kitchen with all mod cons and a dining room that seats 12. There is a fully equipped utility room next to the kitchen. To make the most of the views, we have designed the house so that from the kitchen and dining room, you can look out of the enormous windows to take it in at all times.

A large yet cosy TV room adjoins the games room, and is the perfect place to chill out with a good dvd. The huge sofa can seat 10 people and there are bean bags and a rocking chair for extra relaxation. The games room is full of fun, with pool, a ping pong table, table football, and darts to get competitive.

The open-plan kitchen is centred around a big island, and opens onto an beautiful stone-arched outdoor eating area. The table seats 12, and is perfect for al fresco dining overlooking the pool. There is also a large chill-out sofa, swinging chair, and dining area below the pool, with stunning views and a built-in barbeque – perfect for evening cocktails and cooking. This gorgeous and spacious area is used for morning and evening yoga classes when retreats are run at the house.

Close to the house within our grounds, we have a tennis court with terrace and viewing platform, a tree house, a large wooden children’s playground, golf putting areas, and a large trampoline! As well as trails to hike around ☺

We have enclosed safe parking within the gated grounds of the house for at least 10 cars, and if you hire a 4x4 you can access all the many off road trails around the hills and land!

Website: Can Lledo has a private website giving further details of the house, the local area, things to do and further information about local amenities. At the time of booking, we can give you access to the website to help you plan your stay.

Activities: There are so many things to do in the area, although you may want to sit back and relax by the pool for the week at the house. We have a detailed information folder at the house listing everything there is to do in the area. Some examples of activities you can do are: kite surfing, windsurfing, fishing, sailing, diving, ballooning, golf cycling, cycling, horse riding, hiking, go karting, boat trips and kayaking.

Culture: There are many beautiful historic towns near Can Lledo and again we list all of these attractions on our website and also in our information folder. You might want to visit the stunning cathedral or walk the wall of the old town in Girona. You may want to drive for an hour south to Barcelona. There are various museums, the house and birth place of Salvador Dali, stunning beach coves and seaside towns such as Palafrugell, Sa Riera, Begur and Llafranc. Besalu bridge is worth a trip, as is Cadaques. The Pyrenees are breath taking on the drive from the airport up to Can Lledo, and only an hours drive away.

Extras: As well as our private website and information book with details and information on so many local attractions, we can also put you in touch with a number of people who might make your holiday more relaxing and special. Should you want to go out and leave the children, we have a great local babysitter; if you would like an evening of Catalan cuisine, we can organise a chef to come to the house; and if you feel like you need to unwind even further, we have a yoga teacher and massage therapists who can come to the house for individual classes and sessions.

Picture Perfect
This has been the staycation of a lifetime for a large family gathering. Spacious, well thought out and incredibly comfortable. Parker is the best caretaker we have ever come across. He was charming and helpful and showed us around, but did not intrude. We loved the outside seating area and the chance to relax. The property has everything that you could ever want, and it was very clean throughout. The views are breathtaking and we felt so secluded and peaceful. We didn’t venture out - why would you when you have everything within the property?

Wat een uitzicht
We hadden een prettig verblijf in de villa, die heel ruim was. De weg ernaar toe is wel een uitdaging met een steile bergrit en een spannende zandweg. In de advertentie stond wel dat er een gym was, maar die was niet aanwezig. Voor de rest was alles tot in de puntjes verzorgd. Het zwembad bracht de perfecte verkoeling na een partijtje tennis. Het terrein was perfect onderhouden. Mooie kamers met aangrenzende badkamer waardoor je veel privacy hebt. De keuken was mega goed uitgerust met heel veel materiaal. Jammer genoeg konden we door het algemeen brandgevaar in de regio niet BBQ-en. Maar dit was enkel voor je eigen veiligheid. De communicatie met de uitbaatster verliep heel erg vlot. Zeker een aanrader als je van complete rust houdt en op zoek bent naar stilte en natuur.

Family vacation at Can Lledo
This is a gorgeous home with amazing property and amenities. It is impossible to list all the extra features that make it special. Their caretaker (Parker) is a joy to work with. There were some challenges: power going out several times, flies and hornets, and the long and windy road to get to and from the property. It is worth all of that for this spectacular home, gorgeous pool and tennis court, trampoline, etc. etc. Perfect for a large family.

About the host

Hosted by Nicola Hall

Host profile image
We are a married couple Nicola and Nicholas, both english, with 4 gorgeous boys between us, and a sausage dog. I grew up in London and Nicholas in Hampshire. I am a teacher and author, and Nicholas works in finance. We fell in love with the concept of the house and area when we first met 10 years ago, and I speak Spanish and Nicholas had experience in property design, and we took it from there! It was amazing seeing the old ruin turn into the stunning villa it is today, and we have loved adding on to it year after year... games, tennis court, terraced land, extending walking routes, building the chill out area, etc etc. We think the area is a unique and special secret too...the evergreen mixed with palm trees, the picture perfect nearby towns each centred around a church, the poppy or sunflower filled fields, the beaches that either stretch for miles of sand, or are tucked away coves with incredible restaurants. I could go on! But it really is an area of the world that has something very special about it. We love our house Can Lledo, and we love the area, and Catalunya, and hope you have a fabulous holiday here too.

Why they chose this property

The house has an incredible location, with extensive views over the hills down to the coast. It is nestled in the hills and feels a million miles from anywhere, and yet you can be in the local town in less than 15 minutes, and at the beach in 25 minutes. Once at the house it can be hard to leave though..there is so much to do there whether you want to stay by the pool all day, play tennis, hike around the land, enjoy the indoor games room, trampoline with the children, play boules or badminton, or just chill with a glass of wine and watch the world go by - all be it butterflies and birds! The sense of peace you feel when you arrive at the house is so rare to find in life (especially for us as Londoners) and you really can feel your whole body relax. The sunrises will blow you away, and the sun sets behind the house, so you don't get the glorious reds pinks and purples of the dawn, but the twinkly lights of the coast provide a picturesque end to the day.

What makes this property unique

We have designed the house to retain its original farmhouse exterior and features, and yet made it open plan, modern and spacious. Using large windows was seen as am impractical thing to do as traditional 'masias' are built with small windows to retain heat in the winter, and keep the house cool in the summer. Yet with views like that we knew we had to maximise the opportunity to see them! So that element adds to the wonderful feel of the house - wherever you are inside, you can see the hills. Unless you're in the TV room, which we designed to be cosy, cool, and away from the sunlight!
The design of the swimming pool, and its position, again allows you to fully maximise those incredible views, with an infinity pool feel, and decking.

The house and land feels very spacious, and the children can be playing in the games room, without disturbing the adults outside...or a group on the tennis court while another group sits by the pool... or you can all be together! Each bedroom is uniquely decorated, and has its own feel. All 6 bedrooms have an ensuite bathroom, which means that you never feel on top of each other, and have your own privacy.
