Great place to stay
Very nice place to stay. Very modern and well equipped. Nice to have Washer. Pool was great. Scenery around was great. Would recommend. Quim was very helpful.
We loved the 4 bedroom, 5 bath home. The outdoor patio was perfect for just resting. The property had everything you need for a visit. We were close to Sitges and Montserrat. The only thing to know before you go is that the little town it is in does not have late evening dinners. You need to go to Sitges or Tarragona if you want a fancy, sit down meal. There are bars that serve hamburgers and hot dogs that are very good. Also a grocery store is close by. The owners of property could not be more helpful. Had a great 3 night stay.
La casa es preciosa y la piscina fantástica también. Pueblo MUY tranquilo, tiene 50 habitantes y por las noches no se escucha absolutamente nada.
Quim el anfitrión muy amable en todo momento y pendiente. Excelente estancia.
Warm welkom door Quim dmv flesje cava. Duidelijke communicatie en snelle reactie. Een plus zijn de 4 slaapkamers met elk een eigen douche en wc. Ook het zwembad is super . Alles zoals in de advertentie.
Er is een bakker in de buurt maar hier wel vtv je brood bestellen. Rustig dorp maar de drukte is met de auto goed bereikbaar. Aanrader.
Nous avons passé 2 semaines formidables dans cette maison parfaitement équipée, et adaptée pour toute la famille (parents et enfants). Les 4 salles de bains et la piscine sont un vrai +.
Le village de Castellet est magnifique et idéalement situé pour profiter de la région.
Le propriétaire a été très gentil et très arrangeant.
Nous recommandons les yeux fermés et reviendons avec plaisir
La maison est spacieuse et impeccable et tout ce dont on peut avoir besoin s’y trouve !
Le jardin est superbe avec piscine, solarium et terrasse ombragée le tout s’harmonise goût.
Le propriétaire est un hôte de qualité et son accueil est parfait, il fait tout pour rendre votre séjour agréable et intéressant, c’est une personne qui aime faire plaisir aux gens et il y arrive à merveille. Grâce à lui j’ai passé un superbe anniversaire au pied de pyramides humaines et il m’a même écrit un mot.
Quim merci pour ces superbes vacances. Nous reviendrons avec plaisir et vous recommanderons auprès de nos amis !!!
Wonderful stay, with the perfect location to de-stress. Recommending to all of our friends.
Quim,
Was amazing and more than accommodating. He even saved us a parking spot right out front during a festival in town. Couldn't express a better experience and a great property. The photos are exactly true. The property is beautiful.

Excellent
We stayed in Ca'Helena property was exactly as described and was perfect for our needs. We were a family of 7 adults and 4 bedrooms with en suite was great.
Quim the host was extremely helpful and we were very glad that he organised a welcome pack for us and the cava tour was really enjoyable.
Unfortunately the restaurant in the village were on holidays so unless you drive or take a taxi there were no other options for eating out.
Overall our experience was fantastic and we were very happy with our choice.

Lovely villa in a beautiful location
We were a group of five adults and one child and the villa was absolutely perfect for our stay. Very clean and well equipped and all the rooms were a good size. A lovely rear garden with a small pool which was a bit too cold at this time of year. The small village is picture postcard and very quaint with a good restaurant and bar at the end of the street. Would definitely visit again.

Weinliebhaber und Wanderfreunde
Wir wurden freundlich empfangen (mit Cava und einer Leckerei) und erhielten viele nützliche lnformationen über das Haus und die Region. Alles war sauber und man fühlte sich sofort wohl, das Haus entsprach den Angaben der Beschreibung. Bei Vollbesetzung könnte man mehr oder grössere Töpfe und Pfannen gebrauchen. Wir denken, der freunliche Besitzer würde dies bestimmt sofort organisieren. Das Örtchen besitzt noch ein einladendes Restaurant. Uns hat vorallem das hügelige Hinterland mit den Weinbergen gefallen. Wir können die Unterkunft nur weiterempfehlen.

Beautiful house in picturesque village
Strongly recommend a visit to this beautiful house and garden in the charming village of Castellet. Quim made us feel very welcome. The house was very spacious for the 8 of us(6 adults and 2 children). Excellent facilities at the house with very good wi-fi and well appointed kitchen. We were blessed with sunny weather and the garden is beautifully tranquil in a lovely village setting. A very nice restaurant is 50 metres along the street.

Maison très agréable, plaisir d'être en famille dans cet endroit
Un séjour trés agréable avec une bonne documentation pour découvrir la région. Quelques bains possibles malgré la période tardive mais la douceur du pays nous l'a permis.
Merci pour cette belle semaine. Nous vous recommandons le lieu

Tres bon séjour
Jolie maison très bien équipée, correspondant aux photos.
Très jolie village, calme la semaine.
Bel environnement, vue sur le réservoir (lac artificiel) et sur chateau.
Propriétaire sympathique et vous donnant de bons conseils pour les sorties et restaurants.
Si vous aimez le bon vin , ne manquez pas de visiter le domaine Torres près de Vilafranca del pinedes à 15mn.
Nous vous conseillons si vous visitez Barcelone de prendre le train à l'Arboç.
Séjour du 29/7/2017 au 12/8/2017.

Nice house in quiet surroundings
Nice house, well equipped and helpful and serviceminded host (Quim). We were 3 couples and with 4 bedrooms and bathrooms, it was perfect for. The garden is nice, but the swimmingpool is small and you need to go up the stairs to get a wiev of the lake. The village is little, but cosy, just one restaurant with limited opening hours. Lovely area to go hiking. Car is needed.
