We are a young family with 2 children aged 10 and 12 years old. Our family has a long history and love for this environment and we have been here for 4 generations. We definitely come to the house at least every season of the year to enjoy what the Costa Brava has to offer. We like to go out for culture and sports, eat tapas in the evening in Palamos or in the afternoon just like the Spaniards have a nice lunch. Every time it is again enjoying, and we are still discovering new places, while we come here as our life. Also at Christmas we like to spend a few days skiing in the Pyrenees. We also love to enjoy at home with a good book and some local delicacies or light the bbq with the best gambas in the world and the gambas from Palamos! We are so happy with our house that we always like to share this with other people. We really see our house as mi casa es su casa.
