About this property
Life here is simple, for parents and children alike. Why? Because not only does this terracotta villa have its own pool - offering hours of entertainment - it boasts a generous terrace with outstanding views stretching out to sea, cosy living areas, spacious bedrooms, and it's near the beach!
Yes, Villa Irati, set on a verdant hillside is just 700m from pure, golden sands. And, it's the kind of place you'll be content to let young children splash around in the crystal-clear waters. With a marina at one end, it's a great spot to watch the fishing boats and yachts mooring up. You may even want to take a motorboat out yourself.
With six bedrooms, the villa can sleep up to ten. Individually styled, they certainly give off that real 'home from home' feeling. Move into the open-plan living areas and you'll feel just as much at home. The pretty white living room with its inviting sofa is overlooked by the kitchen, which you need to take a few steps up to - the perfect way to whip up a lovely Spanish dish and not miss out on what's going on in the rest of the villa!
And then out to the terrace for a spot of al fresco dining. With far-reaching views over the hills and out to sea, you're likely to enjoy a meal, or two, there, or maybe you'll choose to read your book in peace, while everyone else is enjoying the private pool.
The private pool is at the centre of the manicured gardens, and complete with sun-loungers it's a great place to soak up all that glorious sun.
Perfect for families, or larger groups of people, this typical Mediterranean-style holiday home is an ideal base for exploring a relatively unspoilt part of Costa Brava's coastline. With the sandy crescent-shaped Tamariu beach and its promenade of restaurants and bars nearby too, you really are spoilt for choice.
Whatever you're picturing, it's even better. Tamariu is a truly delightful seaside village, and its beach is considered one of the best on the Costa Brava.
This small crescent-shaped beach, surrounded by pine clad headlands, is wonderfully sandy, and blessed with translucent waters. Originally a fishing village, Tamariu has retained much of its charm and identity, due to the nature of its rather rugged, but beautiful coastline, and the challenging journey for those navigating the narrow hillside roads. And thank goodness for that, as what we are left with is an utterly charming stretch of coast occupied by like-minded discerning tourists who respect the local countryside, and embrace the traditional restaurants and tapas bars found in this gem of a village.
There are welcome additions too; a popular promenade, a couple of well-stocked mini-markets and great waterfront restaurants. This is one special place to enjoy a family meal; just soak up the atmosphere as dusk falls.
Or, you could head out to the little medieval town of Begur, just 1.5km away. Well worth the visit, this delightful town with its narrow streets and crumbling buildings make for a great day trip, or the perfect venue for a sublime supper.
An idyllic location, Tamariu is less than an hour's drive from Girona airport. What are you waiting for?
