Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2005
Husband and wife team who run a sports tourism company in Girona, Spain. Gareth is a triathlon and cycling coach and Fiona is a sports and science writer and a triathlon coach. They are British and lived in San Diego for 6 years before moving to Girona to set up their business over here. They have taken time to restore Mas Pelegri into a luxury villa, while still maintaining the character of the ancient stone building that is from the XV century.
Why the Owner Chose Girona
This location is amazing. We are surrounded by beautiful countryside with views of the high Pyrenees and the Volcanic National Park. This area has the best cycling both road and mountain biking in the world. The roads are quiet and well maintained and the weather is fantastic. We left San Diego because the roads just got to busy for cycling. Here we can go out every day on beautiful routes and not have to worry about the cars. The locals are friendly and really want to get to know you and we are close to the beautiful beaches of the Costa Brava and also only 45 min drive from a ski resort. There is also an immense amount of culture here, with ancient ruins, art galleries, and local festivals all within easy reach. Barcelona is also only just over 1 hours drive away. Who could ask for more.
The Unique Benefits of this Country Mansion
Mas Pelegri is large, with a huge dining room with triple height ceilings and a beautiful high terrace for watching the beautiful sun sets over the Volcanic National Park. There are also many other relaxation rooms, including a media room in an ancient barrel vault, so even in a large group you can find a place to relax. Swimming every day in a 25 meter pool is amazing and with the views from the pool it is wonderful. There are walking and running trails right from the property, down to the river Fluvia and nature reserve. So you can just walk directly out into nature. The property has also been built environmentally, so everything has been thought of to lower then impact on the environment, including collecting the rain water for the garden, ecological lighting, low energy appliances. So you know you are also reducing your impact on the environment. There are also mountain bikes and road bikes available for rent on the property and a horse riding stables only 1km down the road, a fantastic golf course is only 15 min drive away, so there are so many activities you can choose from. We can also arrange for massage therapists, physiotherapists, personal trainers, beauty therapists and a chef etc to come to Mas Pelegri for you.
