Originally designed as a country house in the 16th century, Cal Mestre is the second oldest building in the picturesque hamlet of Les Gunyoles, in the province of Barcelona. Visitors will delight in the spectacular views looking over a valley of vineyards from which the renowned Penedès wine is produced. Beyond that, there are the unique, rugged peaks of Montserrat. Here there are so many different aspects for you to enjoy: the peace and quiet of the beautiful Catalan countryside, culture, the fascinating city of Barcelona with its outstanding architecture and boulevards, the old Roman city of Tarragona, sports activities, beaches and all the gastronomic delights of Mediterranean cuisine.
The apartment at Cal Mestre has a choice of one or two bedrooms. It has its own simple elegance and a stunning view. Comfortable beds ensure a good night's rest and all rooms are equipped with spacious, modern bathrooms. There is room to swim, sunbathe, enjoy the view, read, chat, or simply relax on a variety of terraces or in the gazebo. The saunas (one Finnish cabin and one infra-red) in the old bodega are available to guests at a nominal charge.
This is an ideal location to visit interesting places and yet to return at night to sleep in the tranquility of a peaceful village. To appreciate the quiet atmosphere even more Marian occasionally organises yoga sessions and special yoga weekends. Martin and Marian created Cal Mestre as their own little dream-come-true, to fashion a lovely comfortable house that they could share with you.
