If you have a dream to live in a castle, there’s a way you can live out your medieval fairytale.
Right in the center of Ripollès, Spain, between rivers, valleys and mountains stand a majestic ancient castle called Llaés. This unusual place is exceptionally beautiful. The place is offering absolute tranquility amidst lush nature for €381 ($413.25) a night. And if you come in a crew that fills its 16 beds, the price comes down to €23.81 ($25.83).
The host of the property, Marc, offers 25% off if you stay for a week and a 50% discount if you book it for a whole month.
The castle is also available for rent throughout the whole year.
Home to the castle, Ripollès is the comarca (county) where the Gironese part of the Pyrenees mountains are situated. The Puigmal peak is the highest part of the range, standing at 2,913 meters (9,557 feet).
According to Metropolitan Barcelona, the natural beauty of Ripollès is increased by other Romanesque churches and castles spread all over the region.
These architectural treasures were mostly constructed between the 10th and 12th centuries.
If you stay at the Llaés castle, you can understand deeply about Romanesque buildings by visiting the monasteries of Santa Maria in Ripoll (the comarca’s capital), Sant Joan de Les Abadesses and Sant Pere in the town of Camprodon.
There are too many smaller examples to visit as well.
Ripollès is known for more than its landscape and architecture.
The region has a rich industrial history, and its efforts have increased the development of Catalunya in general. People have been mining iron and coal for centuries there, as well as undertaking other metalwork, papermaking, and other endeavors.
