Can Font de Muntanya is a charming rural house located in Les Gavarres massif, one of the favorite landscapes of writer Josep Pla, whose rounded forms create an enclave of peace and quiet in the village of Cruïlles, Baix Empordà region. It is an ideal environment to disconnect from our daily activities, among forests of oaks and cork oaks, used in a sustainable manner for the manufacture of cork.
Life in Can Font de Muntanya goes on slowly, providing all the necessary comforts, but self-sufficient when it comes to electricity, water and heating. They generate electricity by capturing solar energy, water through the 5 centenary wells in the property and heating through burning wood obtained by cleaning the nearby forest, thus collaborating in the prevention of wildfires. They also have a generator in order to guarantee electricity supply, as well as a gas tank.
Little by little, they have been creating its ecological garden and the chickens corral, while welcoming animals whose owners cannot properly keep. You will meet Xiu (horse), Tina and César (donkeys) and two ponies. You will also be joined in this adventure by Kor and Kira (two affectionate rottweilers), Duna (a beagle, leader of the group), as well as Blanquell, Gigi and Xispa (cats), who roam around the farm at their leisure welcoming all visitors.
The house of Can Font de Muntanya, with total capacity for 12 people, is divided into two areas: on the one hand the 4 comfortable rooms with private bathroom and on the other the common areas, such as kitchen, dining room and living room. A pool is available to swim all year round, without air heating, treated with salt through an osmotic process.
Can Font de Muntanya has an unbeatable location, just 40 minutes from Girona and half an hour from the best beaches, which allows us to enjoy both nautical activities as well as hiking, bicycle tours, 4x4 buggy routes, the best gastronomy, cultural visits or Dalí Museum in Figueres.
