Catalan Village - Santa Pau

Surrounded by gorgeous green country the historic village of Santa Pau is a must place to visit if you are travelling out on the roads away from the Costa Brava coast. The village is set in the Garrotxa volcanic area just 9km from Olot. For such a small village Santa Pau has a number of nearby places to eat or stay in the nearby area from top hotels to hostals and campsites...ideal for those who like to take to the countryside on foot or cycle.

Please come and give your support.....

Please can you all spare a few moments of your time to come along and support Craig's family on the 3rd anniversary of his death on Tuesday 19th May at 11am when a bench will be put in place at the place of Craig's death.

Temps de Flors - Girona

Every year in May the nearby city of Girona holds what must be the most colourful event in the province. This year the event takes place 9th-17th May so you have just a few more days to see the city draped in flowers! Maps are freely given out so you can follow the route to see where each display is situated. These photos are from our visit today...

Lloret de Mar in May

 Now that the Formula 1 event is over we now have a much quieter Lloret de Mar...but I'm pleased to say the good weather is still with us....apart from the heavy mist that has come in from the sea on a couple of occasions lasting for about 2hrs or so and then the blue sky is back!

Lloret Formula 1 weekend

This weekends F1 in Lloret brought thousands of visitors to town. For 3 days we saw various events taking place, late night shopping on Friday with the catwalks and live music. Classic cars and racing cars were on show and also if you could take a supervised drive around Lloret in a flashy Ferrari or Lamborghini!
