The villa is very spacious and suitable for two families with either teenagers or younger children. Plenty of space, on three levels, to ensure a level of independence in a large group. Extremely well equipped property, used regularly by the owners to try and ensure that everything is available for a successful holiday. The villa's proximity to the beach makes it very desirable in the busy summer months as there is no need to drive. Ideal for older children who wish to make their own way to the beach. Very comfortable for a winter let as it has double glazing throughout, huge log burning stove and individual electric radiators with timers and thermostats.

Owner profile
About the owner
We are a couple with three grown children of 25, 23 and 21. We live in Hampshire; my husband is co- owner of a small business and I work for a company selling oriental furniture.
Year purchased: 2004
Why the owner chose a home in this location
We purchased the plot of land at Sa Riera in 2003 and had our house built the following year. I knew the area well having rented holiday accommodation since 1997. We love the peaceful atmosphere of Begur in the Autumn and Spring and the bustling, lively atmosphere in the Summer when the restaurants come alive and the square in Begur is busy with visitors. We really can't think what more you could want for a perfect family holiday location.
Unique benefits of the property
What is so wonderful about Com Casa Nostra (Catalan for Home from Home) is that it is in the most wonderfully tranquil setting yet only five minutes from Begur and the beach so you really don't have to travel far for anything. We designed the house, knowing our family was growing up, and that we would be inviting partners and friends. That meant creating both communal space and privacy - hence the airy, double height living area and four good sized bedrooms, all with en-suites.
