The history of Borrassà and its surroundings

Although Neolithic archaeological remains and four Roman and late Roman silos have been found, it is not until 817 that the first written sources refer to Borrassà, under the name of Borraciano. Borrassà was part of the county of Besalú, until in 1298 it was added to the battalion of Figueres. Most of the inhabitants of Borrassà, at least until the middle of the last century, have dedicated themselves to agriculture and livestock.

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

Visit its architectural heritage

If you're staying in a rural house in Borrassà, you can't miss the parish church of Sant Andreu de Borrassà , a large 18th-century building that takes advantage of the main walls and defensive elements of the village's old castle. You also cannot miss visiting the chapel of Mare de Déu de Creixell, built during the 18th century and Mas Brascó, a large 16th century manor house. And a curious space: Plaça de la Geometria where, from the geometric figures represented on the pavements, you can understand geometry in a simple and playful way.

Enjoy its landscape and take the opportunity to visit Figueres

MarcEl Paller - With the family

We are back a week after the first stay :)

We were there in the second week of August and we liked it so much that we went back a week later! Coming back from the holidays is very hard, which is why we decided to combine telework and rest at El Paller. The proximity to Banyoles, the Costa Brava and at the same time the tranquility of an isolated neighborhood is the perfect combination. Apart from that, the house, the garden, the pool and the surroundings are paradise. I think there will be a third time!

Exceptional house for family reunion

Very well equipped house, kitchen with everything necessary for a group of 15 people. Spacious rooms, different spaces for group eating, a shame about the stifling heat of the week and the mosquitoes did not allow us to use the gazebo next to the barbecue. super-kept garden and pool. Jaume (Gardener) and the super friendly pool maintainer gave us a lot of advice for activities in the area, a big hug for them. Justina is very attentive with cleaning and small incidents.

Dream vacation with the family in Mas Salleras, August 2023

Mas Salleras has met all the requirements for a perfect family vacation accompanied by our furry friend. The house is spectacular, both inside and outside... the living-dining room, the bedrooms, the porches, the pool, the barbecue area and the barbecue itself, the garden and the surroundings are perfect. The details that have been taken in the restoration of the Mas and the conservation of some elements are worthy of admiration. It is also noticeable that they take care of the maintenance of the garden, which makes your stay a very pleasant one. It is a secluded and very intimate farmhouse but close to all services, which allows you to enjoy the whole day in that wonderful house. We had a problem with the coffee maker and María responded to us within 5 minutes… and in less than an hour they brought us a replacement. We will repeat. Thank you Maria and thank you Naturaki.

DirkGallaret del Pla - With the family

One of the best houses we've ever visited!!

Still 2 small comments: too few sun loungers if you are 11. Too bad there is no direct passage from the square to the pool. But the house is beautiful and meets just about everything with a downright beautiful kitchen.

Pleasant villa and welcoming host

We spent 2 very pleasant weeks in the villa, with 14 people. Anna is a very welcoming, kind and very caring host. She prepared a very good Catalan cream for us. Good geographical location to be able to walk everywhere, very quiet and typical villa with very nice little corners everywhere and a very pleasant swimming pool. A great stay. THANKS!
