Palauet, Apartament familiar 1
The Little Palace of Besalú, at the end of the Cloister and above the wall, which today offer warm rooms and dream views, taking care of the smallest detail. With a total area of more than 110 square meters: a solemn entrance with exceptional inlaid marquetry furniture opens the way to a spacious living/dining room, connected to an elegant kitchen. The stately spaces, spacious and with high vaulted ceilings, are testimony to the splendid past of the building. Two bathrooms and three bedrooms (two doubles and one with two beds) with detailed decoration complete the property. The main room, with its own bathroom, has preserved its stone fireplace and has spectacular views that allow you to wake up in the morning contemplating the famous medieval bridge at the foot of the bed. The eight large balconies of the house provide extraordinary light to the rooms and probably the best views of the town: the southern rooms become a true watchtower over the old wall, the river bank, the Mill gardens and its orchards. To the north, a unique view of the ancient Church of San Pedro with its apses to touch. Finally, the two balconies to the east offer a postcard view of the Romanesque Bridge. The decoration has been preserved with original elements with fireplaces, moldings and stained glass. Wood, well present in walls and furniture, achieves, together with natural fibers and a palette of brown and cream colors, a highly relaxing environment connected to the nature of its magical surroundings. From its walls hang, on the one hand, original engravings that refer to the town's rich past and, on the other hand, old photographs of the monastery. Natural fibers, such as linen, wool or cotton, achieve, in bedspreads, towels, cushions and curtains, the serene and homely atmosphere. In its interiors, the wooden, glass and metal tableware stands out: demijohns, basin jugs or baskets shine next to comfortable beds with canopies. The Little Palace is an authentic oasis of heritage, nature and tranquility in the heart of the historic center of Villa Condal with its spectacular Romanesque bridge, the alleys of the Jewish quarter, the medieval squares, a wide gastronomic offer and a privileged historical and natural environment. Services: ecological amenities, high-speed Wi-Fi connection, gas heating, separate collection, possibility of parking bicycles in the same house. Guest benefits: discount at Circusland and free snacks at the Formidable cocktail bar. Nearby places of interest: Banyoles lake (13 km), Olot volcanoes (22 km), Dalí museum (25 km), Girona (34 km), typical towns such as Santa Pau, Rupit, Beget or Castellfollit de la Roca. Distances: Barcelona 129 km, Perpignan 57 km, Figueres-Vilafant AVE station 23 km.
