In the heart of the Empordà, the hinterland of the Costa Brava, and just a few minutes from the beaches of Begur, this typical 18th-century Catalan farmhouse and its marvellous gardens have for 30 years welcomed stars from all over the world in search of discretion and tranquility. But it was time for renovation.

It's now a reality, thanks to the talent of Pilar-Garcia Nieto, the designer for the Unico Hotels group to which Mas de Torrent belongs, who has chosen a refined, Mediterranean-influenced style in keeping with the original beauty of the golden stone building: white and terracotta tones, delicate textiles and noble materials, works of art and local crafts interact under vaulted ceilings. This five-star Relais & Châteaux hotel now boasts 39 suites scattered around the vast property (including maisonettes with private pools), a locavore restaurant run by chef Ramon Freixa (a two-starred chef in Madrid), an exceptional cellar, a long swimming pool-solarium and a Natura Bissé spa with indoor pool.
An address to be discovered as soon as possible.
