Casa Case (villa)

Home description

Casa Case is situated on a quiet residential urbanisation. Within a few minutes drive are several Blue Flag beaches which rarely get overcrowded. There are numerous small towns and villages nearby to be explored and some lovely bars and restaurants where you can sample the local delicacies.

The unique layout of Casa Case makes it ideal for groups or extended families. It’s like five houses in one so you can have privacy within your group. The villa is fully equipped to ensure your stay is as enjoyable and carefree as possible.

From the villa there are spectacular views of the mountains and countryside (and sea from the first floor veranda) which make this a perfect setting for your holiday.

The Costa Dorada/Tarragona region

The Costa Dorada (golden coast) takes it’s name from the golden sandy beaches which stretch along most of the shoreline. The area forms the southern part of Catalonia which has a separate identity from the rest of Spain. This part of Spain is greener and enjoys a more temperate climate than further south.

This area is steeped in history and some of the cities worth visiting include Tortosa (medieval), Tarragona (Roman and medieval), Reus (birthplace of Gaudi) all about 30 minutes drive and Barcelona is about 1½ hours drive.

The Ebro Delta nature reserve with is wide variety of bird life is about 30 minutes drive. The river Ebro (home to record breaking catfish) also has excellent fishing.

L'Ametlla de Mar / Sant Jordi d'Alfama area

The village of L’Ametlla de Mar (almond by the sea) is a delightful fishing village. It has lots of narrow streets and squares with plenty of bars and restaurants where you can sit in the sun watching the world go by.
There are several blue flag beaches within a short distance, including Sant Jordi which has it’s own Knights Templar castle.

The surrounding countryside is abundant with olive and almond groves. A little further inland the olive groves give way to pine trees and the Sierra de la Mar (mountains of the sea).

Other activities in the area include walking, golf, diving, wine tasting, gastronomy, museums and adventure and water parks.

There are lots of fiestas and special activities, especially during the summer. Some of the local fiestas include:
May/June - Corpus Christi – where the village streets are decorated with carpets of flowers.
July – L’Ametlla - Noodle cooking contest
July – Tortosa Renaisance Festival – market stalls, street entertainers, dancing and more.
August – L’Ametlla – Rice cooking contest

Corpus Christi is on Sunday 14th June this year. We have reduced the rental price to £800 per week (that's less than £60 per person based on 14 sharing. Why not book this week and enjoy this spectacular festival as part of your holiday.
