We propose you to stay in one of our five comfortable double rooms, enjoy a nice breakfast in incomparable scenery or a good dinner if requested in advance. We put at your disposal a property of 50.000 sqm. With gardens, orchards, bushes and a swimming pool, and more than 400 sqm. In rooms, lounges and dining rooms. You can also use Can Casadella as a relaxing base camp to visit Barcelona, the Costa Brava or any of the marvellous sites in our surroundings.
The house: It is a 3 story manor of more than 1000 sqm. in a 50.000sqm. property.
The exact origin of Can Casadella is unknown. There are evidences tat the house existed already at the beginning of the XVI century. From the first times to mid XIX century it was a country house, centre of an important agricultural property based mainly in vineyards and orchards. As centuries went by, the house keeps growing but basically maintains its structure and external look. To this period belongs the interior of the third floor, where the guest rooms are located.
In 1858 the family Casadellà buys the property and implements a great reform in it, that changes the aspect of the house to basically its current look. They give to the house the aspect of an Indiano mansion, this is with details that remind of the houses of the Spanish Caribbean colonies. Most probably the Casadella family were traders that had become wealthy thanks to their business in the American colonies.
In 1918 the Botey family, who belonged to the new powerful Catalan industrial class that rose in the beginning of the XX century, buys the mansion and makes some interesting reforms in the interior, but leaving the external aspect of the house as they found it. In this times all the gardens were redesigned; with romantic little squares and long walkways of olive trees, cypress trees, almond trees, that surround the vineyards, which are kept in production until the seventies.
In 2007 we have done important repairs to improve the facilities of the house, so that our guests can enjoy this centennial building with most comfort.
The garden: The house is located in the middle of a 5 hectares property, which include orchards, fields and pine tree bushes. You can walk along the whole property through wide walkways that lead to precious little corners. An old watering basin in front of the house has been converted into swimming pool. You can relax taking sun baths or at the shadow of centrnnial trees.
