Photos and Description of the El Port de la Selva vacation rental 2 Doubles both en suite, 2 twins with shared bathroom, loo and separate loo

Casa de la Fuente is on the edge of the village of La Vall de Santa Creu, which lies at the head of a wild and beautiful valley, in sight of the famous medieval monastery, San Pere de Rodes (now floodlit at night). In the spring and early summer it is full of wonderful birds and wild flowers, and is perfect for walking. Mid June - mid September there is a restaurant and bar with terrace and beer garden in the village. Our nearest beach is 2 minutes away by car (15 minutes walk) and we are 2 miles from the lively and attractive Port de la Selva, full of excellent restaurants and food shops. The house is on the edge of the village overlooking the mountains and there is plenty of room for 10 people to find a quiet corner - terraces and garden and wonderful views from all rooms. The whole of the bottom floor is taken up by a huge vaulted kitchen/dining room with sofas. All the rooms are furnished with local antiques.

This tiny village of some 40 houses and rock or stone flagged streets is administratively part of Port de la Selva but is physically quite separate from it, being it the head of its own valley, hidden from the sea (for fear of pirates at the time of its re-founding) and an integral part of the Natural Park by which it is surrounded. The IXth Century monastery of San Pere de Rodes and the Hermitage of Santa Elena, high above, are the only buildings visible from the village. They can be reached on foot by paths that begin here but also more comfortably by car from both the coast and inland sides of the mountains. Port de la Selva itself is however only 5 mins away and is now fully equipped with shops, restaurants, sailing club, sandy beach (our beach is pebbly with rock pools) internet cafe etc. while retaining much of its pre-war charm. Within 30 mins are Dali's house at Cadaques and his museum in Figueres, and other villages offering world-class music festivals in summer.
