Guestbook for Pies Cortos. picturesque home
July 2007 We'll never forget the stunning views from the house and garden. We would sit there in the evening watching the sun set and all we could hear were the cow bells. The perfect remedy for stress!

August 2007 Dear Lisbeth
It was everything we were hoping for and more. We had a wonderful holiday and would recommend Pies Cortos to anyone. Thank you! Anne Hughes Great Britain
September 2008 Dear Lisbeth & Bertel
Everybody has now returned home after our stay at Casa Pies Cortos. It has, in any way, been a really lovely stay, where we also got to know this little corner of Spain, and we really fell the need of exploring more of Catalonia. It might not be next year, but we will definitely be back in a couple of years. Our host was extremely kind and they were very interested in getting to know, how it went with our arrangement with our private chef (half of our dinners) Livia. We could tell them, that it went great. We had some interesting conversations regarding the menu of the day and not at least what she had in mind serving the next day. She served 3 dishes meals, really lovely traditional meals and she was always smiling. The visit at the Michelin restaurant was fantastic. We worked hard at trying to find the wine they were serving, but it did not succeed. It would have been great to have brought some back to Denmark. The house it self was great. The situation was beautiful, the wine fantastic and inexpensive, the boule court difficult and the one in Gironella was perfect. Even though everybody did not end up being champions, they were all very satisfied.
Many thanks for your great service and advise and for finding the chef – On behalf of the boule club Lis Sørensen - Denmark
