September stay in Crespia
The hosts Helen and Joan are lovely and very helpful. This is a great location for exploring this lovely area. The swimming pool was great for a dip and the cottage is as described. Very peaceful and rural. We took a few days to adjust as it is rustic and local mossies liked to bite us! Fab restaurant La Trobada a few mins away and lovely walks nearby through Walnut orchards. Figueres(Dali Museum) and Costa Brava short drives away. We loved swimming in Banyoles lake. Go to Platya de La Rovina if you have dogs. Fine dining at La Tartana..

Great Location and Host
Great remote location, hosts were fantastic even producing a couple of wonderful tortillas which went down very well with the vegetarians in the group. The free standing pool was more than adequate and the peace and quiet blissful. The owners clearly love the area and are on hand if required but give you your privacy. The only minor negative is that the bedrooms could have done with a couple of fans, the evenings were very warm. We kept the shutters closed during the day and then opened everything up in the evening, leaving just the mosquito mesh in place but there was no air-flow.

Tranquility and rustic charm.
We stayed at this lovely place for four days and wished we could have spent more time there. Our two young sons had a great time exploring the meadows and woods surrounding the cottage. There are plenty of places to sit outside either in the sunshine or in the shade of the trees. The traditional Catalan style cottage was spacious and comfortable, We especially liked the evening fires as it was cool at this time of year. Our family. As there was no noise pollution our family slept very well. The location of the cottage was suitable for reaching the major points of interest by car. Terry and Gloria were good hosts and we certainly appreciated the warm, home baked pastries ! ( Fresh eggs, and fruit as well ! ) Their dogs, Black and Jack were rambunctious and very friendly. It was apleasure to experience this quiet and relaxing abode. Thank you Terry and Gloria.

Lovely shaded spot to be yourselves and have fun
The cottage in the woods whilst quite remote is a lovely, cool shaded spot to relax in. Our teenage boys had a great time in the pool and the wi fi was good. The area has plenty to see if you are prepared to drive. Terry and Gloria are welcoming and informative hosts.

Excellent Accomodation and Friendly Hosts
We spent 16 days in the cottage in the pines. Terry and Gloria were excellent hosts and we enjoyed their company. There are many interesting places to visit and plenty of enjoyable walks in the area. We spent several days around the volcanic park and in neighbouring towns and villages.

Out family visit to Can Nas de Gos
We visited the cabin for nearly one week this summer, with the hope to disconnect from big city and work. For our kids, the most important thing is always the pool, so we chose this cabin specially for that reason. Sadly for us, we had the hottest week in the year with a temperature of 38 to 42 °C and no clouds. Therefore, we could only use the pool in the morning and the evening, when the sun was not so strong. But the pool was absolutely amazing and it is always best to not having to share it with more people. The garden is very big and beautiful, sadly for us the times we were outside we spent in the pool. The high temperatures kept on during nights and the cabin has only ceiling ventilators, no A/C. But with daily trips to the coast, we managed to cool down a bit in the Mediterranean. In this zone is not that much to see, only a few smaller cities. For more, you have to drive about 30 minutes at least. So yes, to get there AND go for groceries and trips, you definitely NEED a car. It is not possible to grill in the garden, the whole region is banned for outside grilling due to danger of fire. And the house has no laundry machine. Last but definitely not least, the drinking water comes from a well. As the water levels in the ground vary during seasons, so does the quality of the water. We were informed on site, that the drinking water was no good to drink and we had to buy water or refill bottles in the town nearby. This is not acceptable, specially in the summer!

eine Schöne Auszeit mit der Familie
Can Nas de Gos ist perfekt für eine Familienauszeit. Die Lage ist ruhig und gleichzeitig kommt man ziemlich schnell nach Girona, Figueres und weitere wunderschöne benachbarten Städte. Wir waren auch mehrmals in Costa Brava und die wunderschöne Strände zu genießen. Helen war eine wirklich wunderbare Gastgeberin. Sie hat uns immer wieder Tipps gegeben und nachgefragt ob alles in Ordnung war. Unsere Kinder haben den Pool und die Freie total genossen. Die zwei süßen Schafen Blacky und Sporty sind ab und an vorbeigekommen um Nahrung zu suchen. Das was für unsere Kinder (5 und 3 Jahren alt) sehr schön. Can Nas de Gos ist sehr zu empfehlen, besonders für Familien mit kleinen Kindern.

Parfait... A un détail près!
Nous avons découvert ce que nous cherchions depuis longtemps: le calme, l'isolement, dans un grand parc, une maison rustique, avec les avantages et les défauts que cela comporte, une petite piscine délassante et rafraichissante, un environnement riche en lieux de visites... Parfait, donc, sauf: Nous avions réservé deux semaines, de dimanche à dimanche. Par la suite, la propriétaire nous a proposé de rester un jour de plus, donc jusqu'au lundi. Ravis, nous avons accepté avec reconnaissance! Mais à la fin du séjour, le samedi midi, nous avons reçu un SMS lapidaire: "Ah je me suis trompé vous partez le dimanche demain. Alors je serais là pour vous dire au revoir. A demain." Stupéfaits, nous la contactons en retour par SMS, lui rappelant sa promesse, sans réponse. Un autre SMS, un appel téléphonique, toujours rien. Très déçus, nous nous résignons à faire nos valises pour un départ le dimanche matin, conformément au contrat initial. Le retour étant prévu avec une étape, nous devons annuler notre réservation du lundi soir et en trouver une nouvelle pour le dimanche soir. A 20 heures, nous recevons un autre SMS: "avez vous reçu mon message?" sans autre précision ni référence au notre. Et nous quittons le gîte, comme prévu par le contrat, à 10 heures le dimanche, amers et déçus, sans avoir vu quelqu'un. Ceci a terni la bonne impression que nous avions eue!

We stayed here for a week and we loved it! Especially the pool and the huge garden. My kids (14, 10 and 7) allready asked if we could go back next year. The location is also good to explore the area. We went to see some coastal villages, Girona and went to Barcelona for a day. I would really recommend this place if you're looking for peace and quiet.

Schöner Urlaub in Katalonien in der Natur
Wir haben mit den Kindern drei Wochen in dem Häuschen verbracht. Es war alles da, was man brauchte. Im Garten war viel Platz zum Spielen für die Kinder und der Pool war auch super bei der Wärme. Die Gastgeber haben sich sehr gut um uns gekümmert und waren bei Fragen immer gerne bereit uns zu helfen. Wir hatten eine wirklich gute Zeit in dieser schönen Gegend.

About the host

Hosted by Helen Knight

Host profile image
I am a retired English teacher and my husband is also retired and he does the house and land maintanance. We live in Girona city but we also spend time in the farm house 100 metres away from the cottage we rent. I enherited the land and the houses from my parents who lived there when they retired . We like spending time in the middle of the nature with our two cats and two lambs who help us cutting the grass .

Why they chose this property

My parents bought the land and the farm house in 1966. They chose it for being peaceful and in the middle of the nature. Most of the trees were planted by my father . After some years they had the little cottage built in order to retire there. However twenty years ago I had the farm house rebuilt and my father chose to move into the old farm house and then we decided to rent the cottage to help maintain the houses and the land. we have been renting this cottage for about 15 years and we have met many very nice guests.

What makes this property unique

The peaceful and quiet surroundings in the middle of the forest but near to important towns as Banyoles , Figueres, Girona and only 35 kilometres from the nearest beach.
It is an ideal place to relax with your family and pets.
