What can I do in Biure and its holiday cottages?

Do you like castles and want a quiet, rural getaway? Towards Biure there is a lack of people! It is a small town in the Alt Empordà located near Figueres and La Jonquera, ideal for excursions through the Salines-Bassegoda, getting to know the towns of the south of France and, at the same time, visiting the beaches of the Costa Brava.

The history of Biure and its surroundings

The first mention of Biure is in 1108, in a document containing Etha's will. A century later, in 1294, King Jaume II includes Biure as a royal place, without subjection to any feudal lord. It belonged, therefore, to the battalion of Figueres. As a curiosity: The name Biure comes from the Latin bene vivere, which means to live well.

What to do during your stay at a tourist accommodation in Biure

Visit the castle of Biure and the old town

Biure, despite being a small town of just over 250 inhabitants, is full of must-sees: First, its old town, included in the Inventory of the Architectural Heritage of Catalonia, with houses and alleys from the 18th and 19th centuries , like Can Sans, which is currently the City Hall. But also the castle of Biure, a set of ruined remains of a fortified building, possibly from the 15th century. Or the church of Sant Esteve de Biure, a reconstruction of the years 1702-1703. It has a single nave and side chapels.

Make excursions on foot or by mountain bike

Biure is part of the Salines-Bassegoda area and, therefore, you can take advantage of the stay in a rural house to do the many hiking or mountain biking routes that are there, such as the one that goes from Pont de Molins to Biure. If what you want is to take a walk with the family, you can go to La Fonteta, the launderette where the population used to do their laundry, the Buixó fountain path or go up to the monument to Pierre Baile, located in the path from Biure to the castle of Mont-roig.

SilviaCal Pingu - With the family

Rest and disconnect. Comfort, to REPEAT.

The house is fully equipped, very comfortable and convenient to enjoy it. In a quiet environment, but integrated into Capmany, so pleasant walks and good local food. Nuria has always been aware that everything was to our liking, solving our doubts and providing valuable information for other occasions. We have spent a few days accompanied by our children (25 and 22 years old) and their partners, and the stay has been comfortable for everyone. We will certainly repeat.

The reality surpasses the images on the web

We had a great stay. The house is very comfortable, has everything you need and, in good weather, is very practical as it has two dining rooms (inside and outside), perfectly equipped. The host, Jordi, is very attentive and is always at the customer's disposal for any query. The equipment for children is unbeatable.

MartaEl Portaló de Cantallops - With the family

Family space that lets you breathe

We repeated! The space allows the family to be together but everyone has a space and you don't feel overwhelmed. The environment is also exceptional. Kids have everything to keep them entertained, both inside and outside. The only improvement I would hope for is to change the curtains which are not black out and too short (especially in the outer room of four and the moon wakes up young and old too early); also change some auxiliary tables and lamps that are too simple (with little investment it would raise the feeling of luxury).

Naturaki respond: Thank you, Marta, for your review and thank you for repeating El Portaló de Cantallops. We love that our guests enjoy and perceive the diversity of spaces to enjoy that the house has. In relation to what you are commenting on, we appreciate your comments, they always help us to improve. Just this summer we plan to change the blackout curtains, so we will take into account your comments about the blackout. As for the lamps, you will have seen that there are different models and each one fulfills a different function... but we appreciate your constructive comments, and will take them into account for future changes and improvements. Thanks again for your honesty, Eliana.
