About this property

Country family house with a private large garden and swimming pool

Typical Catalan stone house in the open countryside with wonderful views of the Pyrenees. It has been refurbished with all modern facilities. There is a large and private garden (more than 3.000mt2) and also include a private swimming pool. The house and its grounds are rented as a whole property and it's suitable for groups of up to six people.
'Quelet' has belonged to our family for 4 generations. The main house was built in 1840 and been renovated and completely refurbished with all comfort and modern facilities, including: TV, Wi-Fi, dishwasher, microwave…
Each room has been repainted in its original colours and re-decorated with modern contemporary furniture, so as to create an authentic and comfortable atmosphere.
The kitchen has been completely refitted with new equipment, so as to present a functional and cosy space. During the winter months, time, people can huddle peacefully around the fireplace there.
The living room is connected directly to a spacious outdoor terrace (47 sq. m.) where you can enjoy pastoral views of the garden, swimming pool, and surrounding countryside.
The garden is about 3,000 sq. m. with a private swimming pool and a charming old outhouse adjoining the farmhouse. We can also offer you seasonal products from our Little vegetable garden

Also I would like to point out a newly renovated large function room located on the ground floor of the farmhouse, which has natural stone walls and an authentic Catalan farmhouse roof structure. It is a charming and special place, with excellent acoustics and a relaxed atmosphere, all at your disposal.

Prachtig huis, fijne sfeer

Het huis is mooi ingericht met lichte meubels. Door de verschillende plekken waar je kan zitten (bij het zwembad, de lounge-hoek, het terras) is er ruimte voor iedereen. Mooi uitzicht op de bergen. Wij hebben in de omgeving gefietst, gewandeld, Gerone en Figueres bezocht, allemaal goed te doen vanuit deze lokatie. Gastvrouw Angel was fantastisch, heeft ons goede tips gegeven. Een huis om je direct thuis te voelen!

An absolute dream house in The Spanish Pyrenees!

Run by a lovely host who was born in the it, we fell in love with the house. It has fabulous vistas on the Pyrenées, and there is so much wild nature to hike in. This part of Spain had its own culture, great food and wine, and very kind people. We are inspired!

Zalig thuiskomen

Deze authentieke vakantiewoning is een goeie uitvalsbasis om Vic, castellfollit dela roca, Besalú, Girona en Figueres/Empuriabrava te bezoeken. Olot is een aangename stad op 5km waar je alles vindt. De tuin heeft een fabuleus zicht op de bergen en het zwembad is top! Enig minpunt is de drukke gewestweg maar dit valt al bij al nog mee.

Wunderbares Domizil

Das Haus entspricht in allen Belangen den Beschreibungen. Eine sehr nette Vermieterin, die auch schnell auf eventuelle Fragen per Mail antwortet. Die Lage ist wunderschön, gerade auch, weil es etwas Abseits von den Orten liegt.

Fantastic! One of the best places we've stayed.

To start off with, Angels is a lovely host - friendly, smiling and accommodating. This is always a great start to any holiday. The house has a great blend of old character and modern renovation. We lived mostly on the middle floor, where the bedrooms, kithchen and living room are. These are tastefully decorated with good and modern facilties. Downstairs is an additional dining area, with two hang out spaces. Our kids used this area a little - it has it's own TV, access to the garden and bathroom with a shower. Outside, the pool was refreshingly cool. The garden is immense, with 360 degree views. There is a little traffic noise from the nearby road, but it doesn't intrude and becomes unnoticeable after a while. Bikes were provided, and there are tracks to local villages on the far side of the main road. Modern Samsung TVs are provided. There is a small collection of books in a couple of different languages if you're stuck. There is small music center and a large bluetooth speaker for your entertainment. While the location seems a bit remote, there are plenty of things to do within an hours drive, such as Figures (Salvador Dali museum), Girona, Vic, Nuria, Besalu, the Gorg Blau & Alta Garrotxa, Croscat Volcano, Camprodon, Mollo Parc, etc. All in all, a fantastic house, host and location!

Juste super !

On a passé de très bonnes vacances au sein de la maison. Tout est prévu pour que l’on se sente tout de suite comme chez soi. Angels est adorable et très à l’écoute. On a été très bien accueilli. Concernant la maison c’est juste magique. La piscine, l’espace extérieur et le confort intérieur vraiment rien à redire. Des vacances de rêves ! Merci encore !

Unique house with huge backyard in a breathtaking setting!

We are a family of 5 (children aged 11,12 and 15) who stayed at Masia Quelet in july 2018. We had a blast! The old house has been beautifully restored while still keeping its original charm. Although we didn’t use it, the ground floor has a kitchen, bathroom, dining room and 3 living spaces. The main floor has 3 bedrooms, a complete bathroom, a living room, a dining room, a well equipped kitchen and a terrace that leads to the backyard. And then the backyard!! The pool is so inviting and the grassy area is big enough that we could play soccer and frisbee... at the same time! The house is located next to a fairly busy road, but we stopped hearing the noise very quickly. A tip for dealing with the hot and humid weather: open all doors and windows early in the morning and close them after an hour. There’s so much to do in the area! Don’t miss the Dali museum in Figueres, Girona, a hike in the mountains, Besalu village and Olot. There are 2 highend restaurants nearby: Les Cols (2 michelin stars) and our personal favorite Cal’enric (1 michelin star). Casa Nasia, just down the road, was a great meal to mark the end of our stay. Angels is a wonderful host and provided us with great recommendations. We would love to come back!

It was absolutely superb in every way, the owners where there to greet us and show us all the house.

The house was amazing and all as described if not better,with so much space and in lovely condition with all the facilities you could need including a brilliant pool. The town of Olot was really nice with all the shops you could need. The owners were so kind and met us when we arrived to show us around and explain all the facilities, the house is an old Catalan property brought right up to date and could not have been bettered. We visited Barcelona , the Pyrenees and lots of picturesque local villages. We would thoroughly recommend this property. Jan and Tony Howe.

About the host

Hosted by Angels Puigvert

My name is Angels and my profession is draughtsman but since about 9 years ago I rent this family house with the dream of being able to offer a very pleasant experience to the houseguests.
I like dealing with people but I also like to make our clients feel like they are in their own homes.

Why they chose this property

Since my great-grandfather built this house in 1845, my family has lived in it and for this reason, it's a very special place for me.
I don't know how long I will continue renting it, maybe one day I will go with my family to live in the house, but until this doesn't happen, I like to welcome the guests and make them feel the history of the house in their stay.
