We loved our stay in Begur! Nicole and Roger were so easy to deal with and the property was just as advertised. We felt at home the moment we arrived! And Begur was just charming. We would go back! The wifi was very slow but we had downloaded some movies so it was fine. Thanks, Roger and Nicole!

We had a great stay!
The Annex was lovely, very well set out and equipped. We had everything we needed from the moment we arrived, including a lovely bottle of bubbly chilled in the fridge. Roger was kind and helpful and once we got the hang of the steep drive and the lay of the local winding roads, we truly enjoyed the Annex and Begur itself. Lovely!

Exceptional Begur House with Great Hosts!
Ideal lodgings for exploring Begur and the Costa Brava. The house has stunning views of Begur, the castle, and sea. It's located in a quiet area, comfortably furnished, well provisioned, and impeccably maintained. A short walk will take you to a nice grocery store, great restaurants, interesting shopping, and a farmer's market on Wednesdays. Nearby you'll find exquisite beaches and a peak with stunning 270 degree views encompassing the Emporda, Pyrenees, and sea. The hosts are gracious and responsive. Staying here was a wonderful experience. Thank you, Roger and Nikki, for your hospitality!

Homely
We had a lovely 9 nights in this comfortable and spacious bungalow. We especially loved the light filled rooms and the views all around. The house is situated up the hill and the walk into the town centre takes about 8 minutes. Longer on the way back and involves steps and steep hills, so you need to be relatively fit! The property has a cosy, homely feel and seems much more spacious in reality than in the photos. As well as the lovely view over the garden, the other side of the bungalow has windows along its entire length which makes for light filled rooms and also gives an expansive view of the coastline and glimpses of the castle through the trees. The English host, Roger, is very friendly and welcoming and on hand if you need anything. His daughter, Nikki, manages the booking from the UK and is very responsive so communication was very good. We were there in March and the weather, though good, was coolish and of course it goes dark earlier. There is central heating in the bungalow which works very well in the evenings to take the chill off when needed. It heated up very quickly. A TV is not usually important on this kind of holiday, but in the winter season it would be a bonus if there was a more modern set with streaming options. We had anticipated this and so we downloaded films at home before we left and then connected our laptop to the TV with our own HDMI cable. The WiFi had quite a weak signal, although Roger has been trying to improve this. Some of the other equipment is a bit old and is probably ready for updating and the crockery is a bit mismatched but it all worked. The bungalow is well placed to visit the nearby beaches and beautiful coves and the inland medieval towns are close by and shouldn't be missed. All in all we had a really good stay in the Annexe.

Home from home in a beautiful location
The best thing about this place is how homely and comfortable it is, with kind, entertaining hosts Roger and Nikki. It was great being able to walk 10 mins into Begur for a meal or some shopping (though steep hill on the way back). Beaches are accessible by hourly tourist buses in peak season and beach parking is reasonably easy off-season apparently. Within car or bus journey from pleasant towns, Roman ruins, boat cruises etc. Lots of info at the property on walking & cycling in the area. The hosts made us feel really welcome and relaxed. We would love to visit again!

Nikki was really responsive to all my emails. Her father Roger that lives on the property was the best host one can ask for. The garden is amazing, and so are the views. The sheets in my bedroom were the best ever. There was soap, towels, and bath robes included with the cost of the rental. Great property.

annexe visit
The property beautifully clean and very comfortable and totally suitable for two people and all on one level. excellent views. The host Roger was very helpful and welcoming. Our one disappointment was the fact that there was no working TV , and if TV is working there are only spanish channels. The use of a TV is very useful if you are disabled and cannot go out sometimes it would be a good source of entertainment if there were some uk channels.

Property was excellent
We really enjoyed our stay at the Annex. Begur and the Costa brava are very pretty, with the coves and small resorts, not to mention the food. We also visited Cadaques, where we had camped in 1977, can remember some of it but it had obviously changed a lot. The bungalow, garden and views, were exceptional but the drive is a bit steep, even so I managed it ok, even with hand controls. There were many extras to what we normally get, including a bottle of bubbly and it was the first time we have not had to clean before leaving, which is a great bonus. I managed ok being disabled, but there are a few things that we had a bit of difficulty with. Outside it was difficult to get from the car to the bungalow in the loose gravel. We just managed in my wheelchair, but my scooter which is normally ok in firm gravel, just got stuck. A small path to where one got out of the car would suffice. I also found it a bit difficult with my frame on the patio, due to its unusual slope. Inside was great apart from a couple of things in the bathroom. I found the shower too difficult to use, due to having to step over the frame at the front and being a small area. The alternative of washing at the washbasin was also awkward as I couldn't get my knees under the front, when sitting in my wheelchair. A pull down rail to the opposite side of the toilet to the wall would also help, although I did manage with the wall rail. It would all depend how much you are disabled. However we really enjoyed the stay and as I say there is always a way [well nearly always] and if I had known about the problems I may not have come and missed out on a lovely holiday.

Lovely bolthole for 2 located above Begur
We stayed for 4 nights in early October and enjoyed good weather. Booking and communications were easy/clear with Nicola looking after all the admin. Roger is on hand next door and was very helpful with advice about the area; he is not intrusive and we felt very relaxed there. The Annex is spacious, comfortable and well equipped. The bungalow is very clean and well prepared; plenty of towels (including beach towels) and toiletries. The area is very quiet and peaceful. We have no hesitation in recommending the Annex as a base for touring the local coves, Cap Roig and Figueres (Dali Museum). There is an excellent choice of restaurants in Begur, though if walking, the return journey involves a steep climb. The local roads (even into the local coves) are surprisingly good. We had no problems with parking at this time of year, though it can be a different story in peak season. Thankyou Roger for your hospitality and Nicola for effective communications David & Kim

Everything you need!
We spend a week in this nice and comfortable house with sea view. It offers everything you need. Roger was very helpfull but he also respected our privacy. The only 'difficult' thing in my opinion is the steep access road, but then again: you can also park your car in the street just down the house. We visited little ancient villages (Pals, Peratallada...), we walked a few coastal paths and spend a whole day on 'Cap de Creus', a beautiful natural park. There is more to see in this region, I know... We'll have to come back!

Prima, mooi gelegen en compleet huisje.
Sfeervol, zeer schoon en echt compleet ingericht vakantiehuisje hoog op de heuvel in Begur. Mooi gelegen, een plaatje als je door het hek de stijle toegangsweg afrijdt. Vanuit iedere ruimte heb je aan de achterkant fraai uitzicht op Begur en zee. Daar is (helaas) geen zitje, die is aan de andere kant in de ruime tuin met veel hoogteverschil. Ook prima en mooi beschut. In het huis is veel toeristische informatie aanwezig van de omgeving. Ook een flink aantal engelstalige boeken. De eigenaar woont in het huis ernaast en is zeer vriendelijk. Wat wij misten was dat er binnen in het huis geen wifi-ontvangst is. Buiten op het terras wel goed, maar bij wat minder goed weer wil je binnen ook graag wifi. De tuinstoelen zijn wel wat gedateerd. Maar totaalbeoordeling van 5 sterren zegt verder genoeg, tophuisje. Begur is een leuk oud stadje met veel goede restaurants en tapas-bars. Het is niet een standaard plaats aan de Costa, het is er wat chiquer. Wij hebben ons er een week prima vermaakt.
