Enjoy your own private castle experience and feel completely at home with the very best of the Costa Brava and Girona at your doorstep! Castel Celra has an intimate, inviting atmosphere and laid-back yet elegant way of living perfectly suited to travelers wanting to spark their imagination with a sense of place and contact with locals.
The castle welcomes you to an authentic experience in a rural destination where you are not surrounded by other travelers.

This is a quiet part of the world that, for the most part, has not succumbed to major development. While there is plenty to do to fulfill your wanderlust, you can still unwind and relax.

Castel Celra is well-located adjacent to a pristine lush nature reserve with rolling green hills and hiking trails yet walking distance to an authentic Catalan village and only 8km to the beautiful, medieval walled city of Girona and some of the area's top destinations for superb food and wine.

Award-winning, family-friendly beaches, gorgeous Mediterranean coastline with hidden coves and charming seaside towns (think the Côte d'Azur at a fraction of the price), and Spain's #1 rated golf course with Stadium layout are 30mins away.
Listed as a Spanish and Catalan historic monument dating from the 10th-century, the unique architectural elements of the castle's original structure have been beautifully blended with a relaxed, contemporary aesthetic tailored for your comfort and enjoyment. The castle is a self-catering, private luxury retreat with all modern amenities and is attractively decorated with comfortable, original furnishings.

The property is unique in that, while self-catering, we have a local English-speaking
host / concierge to greet you on arrival + help you feel at home, answer questions, and provide insider tips for go-to places and the very best of the area. This allows you to delve into the local culture and discover lesser known treasures and culinary adventures off the tourist track.
Living like a local gives you a more personal experience and brings you closer to the distinct history, rich cultural traditions + imaginative and robust cuisine of this extraordinary region.

The castle is not booked on a room-by-room basis. The rental fee reflects the price of booking the ENTIRE property. You do not share the castle with anyone else during your stay - it's yours for the week.
