While it was not a Grade 1 cycling trip to me, the views were so beautiful and it was obvious the hard work put into planning this.
Excellent trio of 3 hotels, all different but good combination. Routes were excellent in a beautiful part of Catalonia.
Highlights: the tranquility of Mas Masaller alongside speaking with Spaniards; the quiet side roads that allowed for stress free family cycling without worry alongside the challenge of a long day in the summer heat with distances that just about work for an 8 year old with many sweets and a pool to relax in every night. Tip: maybe better not in August due to the heat!

This was a wonderful holiday and a really good way to experience this region in a more intimate and natural way. The cycle trip to Pals on one of the three recommended routes during the Hotel Picasso stay was a highlight for us, a beautiful route, and our first cycle trip. The other route we took out of Hotel Picasso was longer, to Empuries, which we did not find as interesting but these are subjective views of course and it was probably too long for a 10-year-old with little interest in the Roman and Greek settlement which lay at the end of the trip. There was an excellent mix between the rural stay at Mas Masaller, and the more coastal options. Some of the cycle terrain was breathtaking. Girona was very special, a very memorable stay, and the hotel exceptional. We are looking forward to booking again with Inntravel. We were a bit concerned that our ten year old might not last the pace, and get bored, but apart from the odd relapse he really enjoyed it too. We are not experienced or regular cyclists so it was a new departure for us as a family.
INNTRAVEL NOTE: These customers combined our family cycling holiday Bikes, Back-roads and Beaches with our Girona city add-on
This was a good holiday with nice scenery leading you through some very attractive villages. There wasn't a pothole in sight! The hotels were decent, the pools very welcome at the end of a sticky bike ride, and I rather enjoyed staying at the slightly quirky Mas Masaller - eating together round the large table. La Fosca was a lovely end to the holiday, the beach is a delight. My husband and 20 year old daughter hired a kayak (from a stall on the beach) for an hour and paddled round the coast, exploring some caves en route and had a fabulous time.
The only consideration is the heat in the summer months.
Absolutely perfect family holiday for two adults and two boys aged 8 and 3. The routes were perfect and took us through some really beautiful parts of Spain. All of the info was so helpful pointing out all the history and points of interest. We met some fabulous people both travelling and the owners of the hotels. October was a perfect climate for cycling and you get to see the REAL spain; would really recommend booking with Inntravel.
The Costa Brava was definitley a highlight, especially La Fosca and surrounding area. We were so smitten with the beaches that we decided not to cycle one day and instead we took a taxi to the beach from Mas Masaller (it would have been a long cycle there and back). On the recommendation of the owners, we hiked from Llafranc Beach to El Golfet beach and loved every minute of it! On the flip side, we did miss the cycling for the day so that was unfortunate but realistically we could have done both if we were motivated enough.
Exceeded expectations. A really lovely family holiday - all pleasure, no hitches. Loved having the pools at the end of a steamy day!! This to our family was very important, and why we chose these hotels. Thank you for a lovely holiday - more of the same!
Really delighted with the holiday. Perfectly met our needs at both / all ends of the range - children from 9 and grandparents in late 70s, and us parents in the middle. Great organisation. Loved the cycle network. Great hotels, lovely food. It really worked for us and we would come back. Thank you.
All hotels were excellent, but Mas Masaller was particularly beautiful and welcoming. The beach at La Fosca was a delight at the end of the cycling with white sand and turquoise water. The hilltop town of Pals is well worth a visit whilst staying at La Gola.
This was a wonderful cycling holiday introducing us to the stunning rural area around Girona and the lovely coves and bays along the coast. The cycle route had it's challenges which made it all the more interesting. This is a gorgeous part of Spain where everywhere you look you see fruit, vegetables and crops and where lovely stone farmhouses and beautiful villages dot the landscape.
