In 2007 the Senior Partner and I enjoyed a short vacation in a rented villa, high above Spain's Costa Blanca, within the exclusive residential resort of Monte Pego.
We took three days to leisurely drive down through France and into Spain,
staying at small hotels along the way.
Our favorite was Les Vinyes, a rural spa retreat, in the Catalonian countryside, which the SP had found online.

We only had one night there but what a wonderful experience, we hope to return one day for an extended stay.

This sounds just like the sort of place we would enjoy as well, a lovely find, thanks for sharing.
Oh that sounds wonderful! Thanks for sharing your vacation. My daughter is going to Spain with her Spanish class-wish I were going too.

What a beautiful little place to rest and relax en route. We would love to return to Spain (and France). I'm still dreaming.
Hi Maggie, I just said Thank you to you on my pink Saturday post. Hugs from Riet
I like the patio with the view. You know Enno and I love little trips. We're thinking of going to Lille, FR, soon after we return this spring. xo Jenny

Maggie, it's just beautiful! I love it! I'd be perfectly happy with a book, a glass of wine and a chair on that little balcony.
What a nice little getaway for y'all! I love the jonquils in your header, by the way.....so pretty!

I always thrill at seeing photos from different places. We generally travel with our 2 pooches...Did Mr.Ben & Ms.Fleur go with you this time? The view from your terrace was outstanding! Happy SSS.
That IS a delightful bedroom! Sounds like a delightful getaway -- tapas sounds delicious!
When you travel, you have to be will to adjust.
