The house is surrounded by huge grounds whose grapes are used for Freixenet, Cordoniu and other local cavas. Amongst the 14 kilometres of private tracks you will also find pear, olive, cherry, walnut and almond trees in addition to many naturally growing herbs and vegetables (e.g. asparagus, rosemary and mushrooms). The house, a protected building and fortified mansion, was built before 1592 and was extended in 1800. It has been and continues to be a significant landmark in the Garraf area and was formerly used for winemaking and farming. Though totally renovated and adapted to a high standard of modern comfort, the original details have been preserved, in particular the wine presses and bodega. The windows have been enlarged to allow more natural light. Also balconies and terraces have been added. | |
