Casa Ivan - Four Bedroom Villa, Sleeps 8 | Villa in Sa Riera

Sitting on the hillside just outside of Sa Riera and Begur, Casa Ivan enjoys a peaceful setting with a view down to the sea in the distance, which you can enjoy whilst spending leisurely days in the sun with family and friends.
Situated in a quiet residential area, the striking villa is surrounded by dense vegetation and regional plants, and a lovely garden spills out to the rear, where you can enjoy relaxing summer days. The villa itself has a unique appearance, with a vibrant red facade and traditional terracotta tiled roof. Arranged over two levels, the interior is bright and spacious, with a well-designed layout to make the most of the surrounding views. The decor is understated, with natural tones and characterful furnishings that make the rooms warm and homely.
The main living space can be found on the upper level, where a large living room sits to the centre with a comfortable sofa and charming arched windows framing views out to the garden below. A fireplace has been built into one wall, perfect for a cosy night in during the cooler months, whilst a large wooden dining table sits to the rear of the room with ample space for everyone. An open archway leads through to the kitchen, which is fully equipped with modern appliances, and a large central island offers plenty of room for preparing meals. Large openings flood the space with natural light, and double doors open out to charming timber decking. Leave the doors ajar to enjoy a gentle breeze or step outside and take advantage of the warm weather, sharing meals in the fresh air or cooking up a barbecue to enjoy in the sun.
Three of the bedrooms can be found on the upper level, with a combination of double and twin beds and two bathrooms between them. One of the rooms also has access to a private balcony, inviting you to wake up and enjoy the spectacular view over the garden and surrounding hillside. On the lower floor, a master bedroom features a large double bed and enjoys its own private bathroom, whilst sliding doors open directly out into the garden.
A large grass lawn extends away from the villa, where a saltwater pool sits to the far end, perfect for enjoying a swim or lazing in the cool water. A handful of loungers line the pool's edge, receiving sunlight for most of the day and inviting you to relax with a book or simply lie beneath the clear blue skies. There is also a patio on the lower level, offering a charming spot shaded beneath the floor above. Sit with a book and enjoy the peaceful setting or share a bottle of vino and make the most of the balmy evenings.

Location:
Situated in the heart of the Costa Brava, Casa Ivan enjoys a peaceful position, moments from the region's historic towns and picturesque coastline.
Just over a 20-minute walk brings you to the centre of Sa Riera, a typical seaside town that still retains its original charm. Once a small fishing village, the cove is surrounded by rugged cliffs and leafy pines that drop down to the bay and beautiful turquoise sea. Protected by the rocky outcrops, you can enjoy a swim in the calm waters or follow the coastal path over the headland to reach Platja de Pals. Stretching for 4km, the extensive beach is a popular spot during the summer months, and there are a handful of chiringuitos where you can enjoy a bite to eat or afternoon ice cream.
Alternatively, hop in the car and head along the coast to discover the less-known bays and hidden coves. A short drive away, the lovely Port d'Esclanya and neighbouring Aiguablava offer a great spot for snorkelling, or you rent a kayak to paddle out and explore the rocky cliffs and admire the bay from a different perspective. Previously a port, Aiguablava is a popular mooring space, and there are a number of restaurants at the back of the beach. Locally owned Toc al Mar is dedicated to serving the day's catch, and you can enjoy a delicious plate of fresh fish and seafood cooked over an oak grill. Another option is Parador de Aiguablava, where you can sample traditional Catalan dishes such as rock fish broth, anchovies, and Pals rice, whilst looking out across the sea. Further along the coast, the Tamairu is an equally pretty bay, and if you want to try your hand at diving, the local Stolli scuba centre offers guides and lessons. Otherwise, if you are looking to stay above the water, head up to l'Estartit, where several companies operate glass-bottomed boat trips around the nearby islands.
Whilst the coastline has plenty to enjoy, this area of Catalonia is rich in history, and the vibrant town of Begur is just a 20-minute walk. A network of narrow streets lined with colourful houses, Moorish architecture and neoclassical mansions, the hillside settlement has a strong Cuban influence, with hints of Caribbean culture dotted amongst the Catalan charm. Take a seat amongst the locals on the Es Pedrís Llarg, where you can enjoy a drink and soak up the lively atmosphere or visit the ruins of the town's castle dating back to the 16th century. There are plenty of restaurants to stop for a bite to eat, or head to family-run Turandot, where you can enjoy wonderful plates of tapas in the homely restaurant. If you can, visit on a Saturday and enjoy an entertaining evening joining in the traditional Sardana dancing that happens on the Placa de la Vila.
