What can I do in Vilamalla and its holiday cottages?

Do you like cycle tourism and want to know the agricultural reality of Empordà? Vilamalla awaits you. A small town located on the plain of the Empordà and very close to Figueres, which combines the agricultural landscape of the Alt Empordà with industrial activity. The ideal villa for a quiet and rural getaway.

The history of Vilamalla and its surroundings

There is no record of Vilamalla until the High Middle Ages, specifically the year 974, when it is mentioned under the name of Villa Dalmalia. At that time, it was the property of the monastery of Sant Pere de Rodes and was part of the county of Empúries. It was always a small nucleus and, in fact, it did not reach a hundred inhabitants until the 18th century. From the 90s of the 20th century, however, the number of inhabitants increased considerably, reaching, today, almost 1200.

What to do during your stay at a tourist accommodation in Vilamalla?

Enjoy its architectural heritage

In Vilamalla you will find, above all, two essentials: the Romanesque church of Sant Vicenç, a temple from the 11th century, and the Batllia farmhouse, a 16th and 17th century farmhouse that preserves the remains of a square tower from the centuries XIII and XIV. It is supposed to have been the office and residence of the notary of Siurana. It is also worth visiting the old village washer, which has been rehabilitated.

Take a walk or cycle around the area

If what you want is to get to know the agricultural landscape of Empordà at first hand, nothing better than walking or cycling through the meadows and fields that surround Vilamalla. You will only need good shoes, a good camera and a desire to walk or cycle!

Enjoy the important tourist offer of Figueres

Figueres, the capital of the Alt Empordà, is located just over 10 minutes from Vilamalla, so you can also take advantage of your stay at a tourist accommodation in the town to visit Sant Ferran Castle, the Dalí Theatre-Museum or the Toy Museum of Catalonia. Or, obviously, to enjoy the gastronomic offer of Figueres.

LídiaMas Verdaguer - With the family

A spectacular weekend with some recommendations

We spent the weekend of September 18 to 20, 2026. The house is spectacular and the cleanliness is top-notch. The barbecue and paella area is great and very well prepared to enjoy it. The pool area is spectacular and at night you can enjoy luminous lights that are spectacular. The kitchen has practically everything you might need, although we would recommend adding some extra kitchen towels, especially considering the capacity of the house; we were 27 people and they were a bit short. Since we went in September, we didn't get too hot and, in addition, the house has standing fans in the different rooms. Even so, with the heat waves we have been having lately, we think it would be great to have air conditioning. Personally, in the months of June, July or August I would not book it for this reason. The only negative point was the hot water. Being so many, it ran out and they had to restart the system remotely. It took quite a while to heat up again and, when it started to come out again, it was not very hot and the feeling was cold. We do not know what the solution might be, but we believe that this is an aspect that should be reviewed considering the capacity of the house and that no one suffers from running out of hot water. About the location, I was surprised that it was so close to the road because you could hear the cars and not the birds but, it's not a drama. It's just for your information. Otherwise, we had a great weekend and we loved the house.

Naturaki respond: Thank you very much for your feedback, and we’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed your weekend at the house. We’ve taken note of your comments about the kitchen towels and the air conditioning; they’re very valuable suggestions for us. We’re sorry about the inconvenience with the hot water; it wasn’t an issue with the house’s capacity, but a fault in the home automation system that controls the boiler, which we’ve now fixed. We hope to welcome you back in the future!

Tranquility, pool and the best views of Canigó

The house is very comfortable, all on one level, decorated with great taste and with all the necessary equipment to accommodate to its maximum capacity. Of all the rural houses in which we have stayed as a family, undoubtedly the most complete. The garden, the porch and the pool are incredible, with impressive views of Canigó. In addition, there is an area to park cars and access the house directly, very convenient. The owners, charming. They live on the top floor and you don't even notice. The area is very quiet and is close to l'Escala, with beautiful villages just a few minutes away. For shopping, in Bàscara you have everything 2 minutes away by car. Highly recommended!

AnabelMas Espígol - With the family

Ideal house to enjoy a few days of vacation with all possible comforts

This is the second year that we repeat and the truth is that the house is perfect for resting and enjoying it for all the comforts and complements it has such as the pool, games room, barbecue, football field, etc. Also highlight the comfort of the beds and the furniture in general, the air conditioning throughout the house and the cleanliness. Without a doubt it is a house to repeat and the attention of Jordi, the owner, is also noteworthy. Last year we commented that for the elderly it was a bit dangerous when you enter the pool due to the height of the first step and upon arriving this year we saw that he had placed a handrail for access.

LukasMas Llorenç - With friends

Extremely beautiful and large house

We have been 18 people in this wonderful house. It is located in a secluded place, which allows you to completely relax. The power went out once in the area and the owner of the house immediately informed us how to get the power back. In summary, excellent service and a very fun week.

Naturaki respond: We are very pleased to know that you enjoyed your stay at the house so much and that you were able to relax. We appreciate your understanding for the setback with the light. We hope to welcome you back very soon!

BorisCan Bordas - With the family

Well-equipped and functional house

Good house and very well equipped. Bathrooms could have an upgrade, but everything works well. The only negative of the house is the location very close to a cattle farm. At times the smell was very strong and flies were everywhere. This made eating outside at times unpleasant.

Naturaki respond: Thank you for your comments. We are pleased to know that you found the house well equipped. We understand that, depending on the temperature and exterior humidity, you may feel more the smell of the nearby farm and the volume of flies outside may increase. We appreciate your feedback.
