Begur is a lovely old medieval town which has several good restaurants and bars, with many chic boutiques. The striking silhouette of the medieval castle overlooking the town, its numerous colonial styles houses, the layout and profile of the streets and alleys of the old town besides the old fishermen's huts still conserved in the coves, testify to a long and intense history in which pirates, sailors, coral gatherers, fishermen, returning from overseas and entire generations of Begur have populated these lands which, despite all the inevitable transformations, have lost not a trace of their roots. The apartment is in an area of great natural beauty with a large range of leisure pursuits including scuba diving and golf. It is also very popular with walkers and ramblers throughout the year. The apartment is on a quiet road leading to the marine reserve of Ses Negres (2 minutes walk) between the beaches of Aiguafreda (10 minutes walk) and Sa Riera (2.3km) and about 5km from Begur.
