Catalan bars and restaurants specialising in seafood surround the central pedestrianised square. Service is friendly and children are welcomed and cherished by the Catalans. Locally produced wines compliment the fare. The vineyards producing the wines will welcome you to wine tasting. There are excellent supermarkets and specialist fishmonger and butcher shops. Freshly baked bread is available in many shops.
The local park is very close to the villa and is host to many fiestas and fieras during the summer months. Outdoor markets are commonplace in many local villages -on Wednesday Begur hosts it's own, selling fresh local produce and clothes/shoes.

Guest comments
Lovely holiday in a great house. There were 10 of us and we all felt comfortable and had plenty of space. Begur is a great town and the choice of good food restaurants is amazing. The views were breathtaking. Excellent for the children who would not leave the pool although managed to bring them to some of the nearby beautiful beaches! Great holiday!!
