Special Farmhouses. Mas de Sans
 
Mas de Sans is a 200 year old, typical Catalan Country Farmhouse, situated on a 15 Hectare Almond Farm in the Hills above Tarragona. The farm is reached from a ½ km. Track and is approx. 3 - 4km. equally from the villages of Alcover and La Selva del Camp. Mas de Sans II is the original Farmworkers’ cottage, restored to a high level of comfort, maintaining many of the original features. The cottage has it’s own entrance and garden area separate from the main house, with spectacular views over the almond groves, surrounding hills and Tarragona Coastline. The estate also contains olives, carob, figs and a variety of fruit trees. The farm is in the centre of the estate known as Masies Catalanes (Catalan Farmhouses), which was previously a vineyard at the beginning of the 20th century. The main house on the estate (Villa Urrutia) has since been opened as a restaurant within walking distance of Mas de Sans.
There is a freshwater-fed natural swimming pool only 300m from the cottage, with uninterupted views around the countryside. The visitors of Mas de Sans can walk around the farm at their leisure. Athough the main farmhouse is only a few metres away, total privacy is assured, although it must be remembered that this is a working farm and at anytime of the year some kind of activity on the land is sure to be happening. Guests are welcome to take part in the almond harvest during August/ September and the picking of Olives in November.
