When you go on a weekend getaway with children, previous preparation is very important, then it will be fulfilled or not, but at the very least leaving you with good planning will help you to know the area better and not waste time once at your destination. In our blog, we have a lot of ideas that we frequently update that you and your family can enjoy to know Girona region, through the rural houses that we have throughout the territory, from the mountains of La Garrotxa to the sea and to the whole Costa Brava.

We also recommend you continue reading because we have prepared another 6 interesting and fun proposals to enjoy with family.

Girona area offers many activities suitable for children. We select some assorted options to cover the different tastes when deciding where to go or what to visit, it will only depend on whether you prefer mountain, beach or city. Let's get started!

Take advantage of the weekend with children to discover the seabed

Did you get a better way of getting to know the bottom of the sea, than trying to snorkel at the best Costa Brava beaches? A fun and fascinating way, where children and adults can enjoy the experience of seeing the seabed in all its splendour, observing, learning and above all respecting this magical and unknown environment at the same time. We encourage you to change your fishing habits and instead of fishing fish, follow our fishing methods: cans, plastic bags, shoes and a lot of objects that damage the whole coastline and the sea in general... In this way you will contribute to keep clean the fascinating submarine world that we like to visit.

Swim into river pools and discover its incredible environment with the little ones

Complement your country weekend with an excursion to one of the river pools that you can find throughout Girona region. you can access easily to most of them, so you can enjoy this natural pools with the whole family. River pools can be visited during summer time, so you can swim on it, but it is also a good idea to walk to them during other seasons of the year, since the weather is not that hot and the walk is easier to do. A good experience is to have a picnic when you arrive at the destination. Remember to respect the environment and not leave any rubbish!

Are you a Game of Thrones fan? You will love this!

If you are one of the unconditional fans of the series and where you go you look for swords, castles and mysterious secrets, you're in luck. In this area you will find several towns that could be part of the recognised series. Inside our blog you can find the 10 medieval movie towns in Girona. Each of them has its charm and can be a good option for your weekend getaway with children.

Get to know the volcanoes of La Garrotxa, a very good route to do with children

If you are one of those who prefer routes through the forest or the mountain, we recommend that you visit the volcanic area of La Garrotxa. There you can find different routes to visit the volcanos of the La Garrotxa region, some of them connect with La Fageda d'en Jordà forest, where you will discover one of the most spectacular forests that exist in the area. During autumn season it is a colourful visual spectacle that cannot be missed.

Wine tourism with children? Yes, and it's really fun!

Wine tourism is becoming a more habitual practice in our territory. The rural area of Empordà region offers us different vineyards and cellars to visit. Many of them, apart from traditional wine tasting, have opted for family wine tourism, where they offer activities for the youngest, and it is a very interesting visit to complement your weekend in the area. Some vineyards of the Alt Empordà still have som remains of the the Spanish Civil War history. We recommend you the route Wine&Bunkers, offered by Cooperativa de Garriguella, very entertaining for children and adults, where you can visit the bunkers that are hidden in the middle of the vineyards, and give you a small idea of ​​how was the daily routine form people living there to defend themself from "the enemy".

Become a child and live Christmas

If the family weekend happens during Christmas time, we recommend visiting some villages where Christmas times is lived in a very intense way, where the lights and music remind us that it is less so that families meet together for long Christmas meals. You will also find different living nativity scene representations spread all over the towns, such as the living nativity scene of Bàscara.

MontseCan Dalmau - With the family

MOTHER'S BIRTHDAY WITH THE ENTIRE FAMILY

The house is comfortable. But for me the photos are better than the reality. The rooms look bigger than they are. The pool area and the room are very good, but the rooms need a coat of paint and some mattresses need to be changed and the decoration improved. There are no cupboards in the kitchen to store food, glasses and spoons are missing. Joaquim (the owner of the house) is very endearing and makes everything easy for you. Her parents live upstairs in the house by the pool and it takes away your privacy.

Naturaki respond: Thank you, Montse, for your review. We are glad to know that you found the house comfortable and that you liked the room and the pool area. With regard to the photographs and the distribution of the house, we have taken the photographs personally and in the description and plans of the house we specify its distribution and communicate that the owners live in a part of the house with a completely independent entrance. We take note of your comments to improve the stay in Can Dalmau. Thanks for visiting!

Visit volleyball team and couples

The visit was excellent. Marta's attention was exceptional. The house is beautiful in every way and super prepared and equipped. There is a lot of tranquility, a supermarket nearby at the same time that it is isolated from everyone except the owners who live behind.

Birthday and weekend with friends, family and children: BRUTAL

We have enjoyed a brutal weekend. The house is wonderful, large, with 9 double rooms and each one with its own bathroom. It is a generous house that offers all the comforts. The kitchen has everything to cook and serve. It lacks nothing! In addition, it has a second kitchen that is a great support when the number of guests is large. The house has a wellness area with a tremendous pool, jacuzzi and sauna. Everything in very good condition and very clean. In addition to a hammock area around the pool. Also a games room for children and games for the not so young: billiards, table football and ping pong! BBQ area is wonderful. The house is also in a beautiful setting, which you can enjoy taking some very nice walks. Montserrat is very nice. He made everything very easy for us and explained in detail the operation of the wonders that the house offers. If you take care... you find things that good. Thank you Montse, we will be back for sure!!!!
