Award-winning Character Holiday Apartment in a Catalan Farmhouse ("Granados")

Apartment on the ground floor, for two to three people, located quietly at the back of the old farmhouse. You enter through a private terrace. With a living room, a comfortable bedroom and a 'wet-room' style shower room. El Portal is an early 19th Century farmhouse (mas), renovated and decorated to a high standard, on the edge of Vivès, a sleepy little village situated at the foot of the eastern Pyrénées, close to Céret and Collioure. Against the backdrop of majestic Mont Canigou, Vivès nestles amongst more gentle, rolling hills covered in vineyards and forests of cork oaks and mediterranean pines. Yet access by car is easy: just 10 minutes from the A9 motorway, 10 minutes from a bathing and boating lake and 25 minutes from the Mediterranean beaches. Our region is full of interesting history, art and music, not forgetting of course the renowned wine trail. With plenty of country tracks around, this is also an ideal setting for rambling, bike rides and many other activities revolving around nature.
