Villa Rocamalera
A pearl in the foothills of the Pyrenees
A hilltop estate above Lake Boadella in Darnius, Girona — two stone villas on 1.1 hectares, a few kilometres from the French border.
Looking for a holiday stay?Stone, pine and an open view
Villa Rocamalera stands at the top of a hill in the foothills of the Pyrenees, alone with the landscape. Below lies the valley and the clear water of Lake Boadella; the French border is a few kilometres away. From almost every corner of the estate there is a view over the valley and the lake.
On the hilltop stand two mirrored villas built of natural stone. A free-standing terrace with a saltwater pool lies apart from the houses, so the pool can be enjoyed without disturbing those in the villa or the guest house.
