Begur is a place I find myself drawn back to again and again. Perched on a hill along Spain’s Costa Brava, this charming town captivates with its scenic beauty, relaxed atmosphere, and coastal charm. Whether hiking the coastal trails, lingering over a seaside meal, or wandering its cobbled streets, Begur always delivers something special—no matter the season. J'adore Begur.
A Romantic Escape in Catalonia
Plan the ultimate Catalan weekend retreat by pairing a stay at Can Campolier, a bike-friendly countryside gem by Banyoles Lake, with a few nights at Les Hamaques, a charming B&B just minutes from the Mediterranean coast.
