Quite a pretty place, charming and the staff were super-sweet. I was the only guest, so my dog and I got full run of the place :) Unfortunately, did not get to sample the reputedly excellent food, which I am sure I would have enjoyed. The pub down the road did a fine salad, and the walk there made it... More

Old charming convent with original 13th century structure. Charming terraced area. Small pool but lovely ambience. Staff were superb. Stunning location. Delicious freshly prepared no frills food. Wonderful coffee. A superb base for exploring this charming volcanic landscape. Rooms got very hot due to hot weather generally. Could have killed the cockrel at 5am each morning but fond memories!

I brought a group of friends for my third visit. They loved it and appreciated the change after 5 wonderful days in Barcelona. Inis and her staff couldn't do enough. For our last night night, she managed to get us a Spanish guitar player and a bonfire. What a wonderful place, plus the food is fantastic with all fresh ingredients.... More

After spending a week in Barcelona, nothing could have been more relaxing and serene than those three days at Mas Garganta. We were welcomed warmly into this rustic country home and offered the freedom of the place. The view from the top of the hill encompasses a peaceful countryside, fields, mountains and all the familiar smells and sounds. Our accommodation... More

Best location to visit La Vall d'en Bas and La Garrotxa. A restored building, not luxurious but charmy and comfortable, specially if you travel with children. We stayed in a family room with a year-old child and had a really great time together. It is not a bargain but it worths it! Regarding other reviews I have to say that... More

We were warmly welcomed by a group of young men and women. Our room was large with a super comfortable bed and marvellous views. However, it was grubby! The arms of the chairs were greasy, the bathroom floor badly stained and the bath chipped. Worst of all the shower was hanging off the wall! Yes, the towels were thin but... More

Mas Garganta in rural La Pinya outside of Olot hits all the high points one expects in a lodging like this—spotless rooms, friendly & attentive staff, very attractive prices compared with other, often lesser quality, accommodations in the area. However, Mas Garganta stands out above all others with a host of intangible virtues—gorgeous views of the nearby hills, deep green... More

We spent 3 nights here and loved the place. If you want to get away from the crowds, then Mas Garganta is perfect. The rooms are simply furnished but with very comfortable beds. Breakfast is excellent - local ham, cheese, bread and superb coffee, all served on a covered terrace with wonderful views over the countryside. We also had dinner... More
