This holiday is full of contrasts and variety, and explores one of the most beautiful corners of Catalunya, mainly following the coast. It's gentle cycling too, occasionally off-road, through olive groves, peach orchards and along pretty coastal paths. The landscape is gently rolling for the most part, and the changing seasons bring blossom-white in spring, sunflower-yellow in summer and warm gold in harvest time.
Catalunya is rich in mediaeval villages, and highlights include prosperous Peratallada, fashionable Begur and Castell d'Emporda, perched proudly on its outcrop affording spectacular views over the entire plain. You stay in a variety of hotels, all with pools, which have been specially chosen for their charm and character. Mostly you're in hotels within walking distance of the beach, with two nights in a magnificently restored C14 castle just outside La Bisbal.
