Nous avons séjourné à 6 avec 4 enfants dans le grenier pendant 4 jours fin Avril et vous avons tous apprécié le cadre verdoyant et calme de ce hameau charmant. La piscine sous la verrière est géniale pour les enfants et les grands, les équipements très complets et les petits déjeuner au soleil , dehors ou dans le salon très ouvert avec le bruit de la rivière en contrebas ont été délicieux.
L'accueil bienveillant de Sira a rajouté au plaisir de notre séjour dans cette belle région préservée, peu connue des toulousains qui restent sur la côte à Figueres. Belles balades dans les volcans, marchés typiques, village médieval (Besalu magnifiquement préservée), randos vélos, il y a de quoi faire et revenir à diverses saisons. 100% recommandé

Hemos tenido la suerte de estar alojados en La Rovirota este verano. La propietaria nos dejó la Casa Solar más económica porque en lugar de 14 personas (ocupación máxima) éramos 9. Un gesto muy bonito. La casa es grande, confortable, con muchos utensilios en la cocina, muchos baños y muy espaciosa. Las camas también son muy cómodas. Estuvimos muy a gusto. La piscina también es muy agradable y el paraje de La Rovirota es encantador. Es un lugar muy tranquilo en el que mi hija pequeña, que suele dormir mal, durmió de forma excelente!! La recomiendo sin lugar a dudas.

Tuvimos una experiencia excelente en la rovirota con mi mujer y el niño (5 años). El lugar es muy tranquilo, la disposición de las casas te da privacidad, pero al mismo tiempo la posibilidad de compartir con otras familias en los espacios comunes. Las casas bien equipadas, con todo lo necesario para una estancia agradable. El entorno precioso, con varias rutas para hacer. ¡Quedamos muy contentos y seguro que volvemos!

Je conseillerais vivement ce gîte à ceux qui veulent profiter du calme de la montagne et des échos d'un ruisseau.
Très bien pour ceux qui ont des enfants car ils peuvent profiter de la piscine et des jeux. Et si vous voulez faire un saut à la plage (et son vacarme), la mer est juste à une cinquantaine de kilomètres. Magnifique en été car on est au frais, et en automne,car les couleurs font rêver.

If you want to enjoy a nice and quiet stay in Catalunya, then we advise you La Rovirota-El Moli de la Plana in Riudaura. We stayed 2 weeks in La Cabanya: a top-rural gite for 2 persons, well restaured and with good comfort, a swimming pool (in a veranda) in a quiet valley with 5 authentic guesthouses, surrounded by woods. We enjoyed our walking trops in the vulcanic La Garrotxa and the Alta Garroxta with peaks up to +/- 1300 m. Also the visits of mediavel villages (Santa Pau, Bésalu) and the historical centers of Olot an Girone were very intresting. We were very well received by the sympatic guestwife Sira, who gave us also usefull tips.

We spent 2 beautiful weeks in the very charming and comfortable Cabanya at La Rovirota. The Cabanya is compact - with bedroom (queen size bed) and bathroom downstairs and a live-in kitchen overlooking the mountains and woods upstairs. It has sun all day round, a remarkable variety of birds and is the perfect place for quiet relaxation as well as adventures (there are very nice local hiking trails and a small stream nearby to cool down). It is well equipped and Sira, the owner, is the perfect host: warm, knowledgeable, and accommodating. This was our first trip to magnificent Catalunya and we will definitely return to the Cabanya.

This was just what we were looking for- peace, tranquility, nature, a retreat.
With tree covered hills and an abundance of wildlife, the setting is just sublime and the hosts are great- friendly, helpful and couldn't have made us feel more welcome.
We stayed in the old mill which is full of rustic charm and I slept like a log most nights.
The wifi could be better, but as we were wanting to have a proper break I saw this as being not such a bad thing!
I would love to come back and would have no hesitation in recommending La Rovirota.

Mi pareja y yo estuvimos con nuestro bebé de 6 meses el fin de semana y todo fue de fábula. El sitio es perfecto para desconectar, y aunque nuestro peque es muy pequeño para disfrutar de muchos servicios para los niños (columpios, Ping-Pong ....), nos lo pasamos genial. Increíble el entorno, en medio de la naturaleza, y en una casa muy bien equipada. Seguro que repetiremos más adelante!

I arrived in early October for a full two weeks stay (to work on some project on the computer) - and I enjoyed my stay very much: The place is quiet, very well maintained and you can ask the owner for any help and will for sure get it (like additional kitchen equipment). Bed was very good (not old, not too soft), there is highspeed wireless at least in the hut and outside (!), and looking at the donkey + baby donkey is just enjoyable, also. The pool is just an extra add-on, I wouldn't want to miss. The only thing is to go hiking directly from the farm there are only few paths, but plenty of them in the villages around (you'd need a car thou, obviously).

We stayed at El Vell Moli de Baix for a week in September and were extremely impressed. This small complex is beautifully converted and can accommodate couples and families alike. My husband and I needed to relax and get away from it all and this was perfect. Our accommodation was basic but extremely comfortable and the setting is stunningly beautiful with mountains all around. You are 1.5 km from the village which has very little, so driving is a must. The nearest town Olot is fascinating and has good bars/restaurants and an excellent market. The nearest restaurant. La Canal, on the outskirts of Olot offers very good food and excellent entertainment in the form of the staff - tolerating our bad attempts at Catalan! Sira, the owner of the property, is lovely - excellent English, very helpful and charming. We will definitely be going back and taking friends with us. One tiny criticism is that we like to cook with good local ingredients (in abundance) and there was nothing in the kitchen in terms of basic cooking ingredients such as oil, salt and pepper. Thank you Sira, look forward to seeing you again.

La Rovirota is great for family holidays - but will be nice for couples as well. The cottages have been restored in a simple but tasteful way, which gives you a warm homely feeling, and although basic, they have everything you need, we got a cot for our 2 yr old, and there's a lot of space where children can play and run around. There were other families there but it never felt crowded, on the contrary, La Rovirota has a very friendly atmosphere, and if my Catalan had been any good it would have been nice to make more friends. My 2 yr old loved the toys that were available for children outside in the play area and in the play room, and my 8 yr old had a lot of fun going down to explore the stream and in the swimming pool, in the greenhouse. We were there for a week and spent a couple of days at the cottage, or walking to the nearby waterfalls, where you can also swim (but it's v cold water!), and the rest of the time going around other villages by car. In Olot we hired bicycles and rode to Les Presses, a short ride of about 5Km, which was ok for the children. There are a number of beautiful waterfall around there and lots of walks.
The nearest village where you can buy food is Riudaura, pretty little village, about 10 mins by car from La Rovirota, but bear in mind they have no fresh milk and a limited selection. But we spent a morning at the fruit and veg market in Olot, which was great. There is a really good restaurant between Olot and Riudaura, Bar Brasa La Corda, which merits a visit, especially if you're not vegetarian.
Sira, the owner of La Rovirota, is very friendly and always ready to help, plus her English is excellent. We'd like to go back again!

A beautiful quiet spot, well "away from it all".
The accommodation was comfortable and well equipped and had a walk in shower which was just right as I have mobility problems.
The area is interesting and off the beaten track. I would recommend a stay there.

I spent a wonderful 3 weeks here in April 2011, in the old mill house, one of a number of houses/apartments on site at Moli de la Plan. Well off the beaten track, set in woodland, it was quiet and peaceful, only the sound of the river and the birds to greet me the morning. Pure air,with no nasty urban or farm smells to disturb the nostrils and the lungs. And Sira, the owner, is very friendly and helpful, and speaks excellent English.
The town of Olot is about 10 minutes drive away. The unique volcanic landscape around Olot is fascinating, with its volcanic cones, the youngest of which is a mere 10,000 years or so. This is the only volcanically active area in mainland Spain. There is an abundance of information about the volcanoes, including a museum, an interpretation centre and various well-signposted walks with free explanatory leaflets. Although many areas of northern Spain offer great tourist information and excellent signposted walks, the free information in Olot is probably the best I have seen to date.
As a geologist, a photographer and a walker, I really enjoyed my stay here and will definitely be going back.
My wife and son, not as enthusiastic as me for walking the early morning landscape, spent lots of time in the heated swimming pool on site. And the beaches of the Costa Brava are about an hour away by car.

The appartments were lovely. Everything was perfectly clean and the people who tended the place were really nice. It was perfectly situated in the middle of nature, near a water current, while the interesting parts of La Garrotxa were easily accessable. Cheers, Erika&Jan
