Perfect village idyll
In Torroella de Fluvià a small piece of paradise has been preserved. The farmers order their fields. The old women meet every day in the small village shop on the corner and to the village festival, old and young, residents and guests, locals and international newcomers dance together in the beat of the live band on the square in front of the ajuntament. Every weekend you can dig between old stuff on the village square at the flea market and sometimes discover a real gem or a bizarre decoration.
Aiguamoll Nature Park
The village almost borders on the Aiguamolls nature reserve – the well-known bird protection park at the mouth of the Fluvià. The Aiguamolls del Empordà Nature Park is one of the most famous and beautiful wetlands in Catalonia. In Aiguamolls you can observe rare birds, follow the storks and herons in the sky with views or just walk through intact nature until you land on secluded beaches to collect driftwood and mussels.
Vilacolum – holiday settlement
In recent years, Torroella de Fluvià has expanded to include the small holiday resort of Vilacolum. If you prefer a small holiday villa instead of a country house, you are in good hands there. All real estate offers of the town and the surrounding area can be found at www.selected-property.com
