Our house is called "La Clariana", which is the Catalan word for a clear space in the forest or in the clouds. It is called so because that is what it brings: a refuge of peace. Located in the boundary of the Parc Natural del Montnegre, it is made of wood, designed and built following ecological standards.

It is very cosy and comfortable, with windows in all rooms framing the outside forest. It has a bedroom with a double bed, a bathroom with a shower, a bedroom for my two daughters with two individual beds, and a big space including open kitchen, dining and living room from which you have excellent views, including the Pyrenees, and they're 100 km away!

We have a wooden terrace (18 sq mt) with a pergola, connected to the house. The land is 1500 square metres, natural gardening style (Mediterranean), mixing garden and forest. It has a small pond and even a zip-wire.

We also have a barbecue, with (another) pergola, under which you can sit around a table and enjoy the grills!. In summer, we assemble a pool 4 metres long, 2’2 m wide and about 80 cm deep (7000 lt), where we have lots of fun. This pool is in the middle of a flat terrain with hammocks and parasols, and it is a lovely corner to lay down and read or have a drink.

There are different levels in the garden, all connected by stairs and a 10% slope additionally. You can just step out of the garden walking straight into the forest and trek as much as you want following the numerous paths that stretch all over the surrounding mountains.

The neighbourhood is quiet and peaceful. I designed and conceived La Clariana as a space to share with my friends, for everyone to relax and enjoy as if it were theirs, to forget about “protocols”. When our friends are around, they know they can have a nap in any of the many places you can find to do so, if they wish to. Now we are ready to share this not only with our old friends, but with those that enjoy nature and family alike too. And that might be you. Welcome!

By car, you are 10 minutes away from the beaches of Santa Susanna and Pineda, and 15-20 from Calella. There are plenty of restaurants in the area.

Waterworld Lloret, an aquatic parc, is only 20 minutes away, and Marineland, a marine park with dolphins, seals and other animals, is only 15 minutes away. For the cities, Barcelona is 40 minutes away by car (70 minutes by train), and Girona is 30 minutes. The neighbourhood is quiet and peaceful. We live in a dead end street, where all neighbours have known each other for donkeys years and get along very well.
