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!

Yo ya he ido unas cuatro veces, y no me canso, porque la verdad es que las casas y el entorno son inmejorables. Sira, la dueña, es muy amable y te echará una mano en todo lo que pueda. Si lo que buscas es tranquilidad, excursiones en la naturaleza, desconectar en general, ir con tus hijos/as y pasarlo muy bien, este sitio es de los mejores que yo he visto.

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.

Hemos estado en una de las casas rurales del moli de la plana (rovirota) un grupo de varias familias con niños pequeños (entre 2 y 6 años). La verdad es que hemos disfrutado de la estancia enormemente puesto que la casa y el entorno es ideal para ir con niños. Tiene un parque infantil con arenero, una zona cubierta con juguetes, columpios tobogán etc. Además se puede descansar en alguna de las mesas o bancos que hay alrededor de esta zona de juegos mientras los chicos se divierten (con wifi). La piscina (que es cubierta por lo que el agua está a muy buena temperatura) es otro punto a destacar de esta casa, que hace que uno se pueda relajar con un bañito después de realizar algunas de las muchas excursiones que se puede realizar desde ahí. Y no sólo eso, las casas están situadas en un entorno increíble, todo verde, junto a un río, con bosques por donde pasear y además al lado del parque natural de la garrotxa. Todo nuestro grupo lo ha pasado fenomenal y a los chicos les ha encantado la casa....lo único que querían hacer era quedarse a jugar en la casa rural o bañarse en la piscina. Saludos a Sira que nos atendió muy bien. Esther y familia (desde Valencia)

Fuimos 15 personas, 4 familias. La casa enorme, los baños enormes. Todo perfecto. De lo mejor , que tiene piscina, climatizada, cubierta, agua calida, duchas al salir, de agua caliente. Perfecto¡¡ Incluso en invierno se estará caliente. Al lado de la casa un riachuelo, todo pura naturaleza. Para los niños, tiene una sala cubierta para juegos y a afuera, tiene columpios e incluso una cama elastica. Para que los niños salten hasta agotarse. No falta la Barbacoa. Muy tranquilos, sin ruidos. Un lugar para relarse

Yo y mi familia vamos muy a menudo a la Rovirota ( Casa la Sira, como la llama mi hijo de 4 años) para escapar de la ciudad y disfrutar de la naturaleza. Sira, la dueña es un encanto y hace que te sientas como en casa. La Rovirota está muy cerca de todos los lugares de interés de la Garrotxa. Los alojamientos estan muy bien. La piscina y la zona de juego para los niños estan genial. El rio y los senderos que hay alrededor de la casa son ideales para pasear y disfrutar de la tranquilidad del lugar. Estela

Estuvimos 3 noches en la casita para dos personas de La Cabanya y nos gustó mucho, aunque es pequeñita (quizás no recomendada para estancias largas) tiene todo lo que se pueda necesitar. La cama muy cómoda, la cocina muy bien, con su lavaplatos y todo, sólo le falta un microondas! La casa tiene calefacción con termostato, muy práctico, aunque me da la impresión de que no está totalmente aislada y en invierno tiene que hacer frío. Mi pareja y yo estuvimos muy tranquilos todos los días aunque las otras casas estaban llenas de familias con niños pequeños (que es el tipo de cliente habitual) Tienen una mesa de pingpong para echarse unas partidas y juguetes y columpios para los críos, incluso un par de burros. La zona también me gustó mucho porque está un poco aislado pero a tiro de piedra de todas las cosas interesantes que hay por la Garrotxa y el camino hasta la casa está asfaltado y ningún problema. Muy recomendable!

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
