Our family has been caring for Mas Palou since the 12th century. For generations, we’ve built and maintained this place. We are its proud guardians.

It’s a lot of work, but it’s incredibly rewarding. And yes, we do take time to slow down and enjoy the moment.

Need a break too? Welcome.

Stay in one of our three guesthouses, whether it’s for a couple of nights or a week (or two). Whether you’re a couple, a small group, or a larger crew, we’ve got a spot for you.

Just 45 minutes from Barcelona, the Penedès wine region stretches out in a landscape of rolling hills, forests, olive groves, and, of course, vineyards. We’ve called this place home for centuries, and trust us—there’s a reason we’ve stayed. It’s a truly special place.

We’re surrounded by wineries, markets, festivals, and top restaurants. Sitges and Vilanova i la Geltrú, beautiful beach towns, are just a short drive away, and Montserrat’s peaks are 40 minutes away. Penedès is a hidden gem waiting to be discovered.

Many of the vineyards surrounding our house are part of our property, and you’re free to walk around and explore. From these vines, we make our natural wines!
This is the main house—where we live, eat, argue, and toast. Just next to it: the old barrel rooms, the cellar, and the guesthouses where our visitors sleep. It’s all part of the same ecosystem.

A cozy room with exposed beams and classic Catalan tile floors.
Wine glass in hand, take in the unbeatable view of the estate from the Cal Magí terrace. Even the table tells a story—crafted from old hydraulic tiles from the house.
How does it feel to practically stay in a wine cellar? Imagine being surrounded by the hum of history, the cool, earthy air, and the quiet rhythm of aging wine. And when the jasmine blooms in May, the scent is downright intoxicating.
Cal Joaquim’s private patio, complete with BBQ and just steps from the pool.

Each house has its own private outdoor space, perfect for enjoying the Mediterranean breeze. With over 300 days of sunshine a year, you’ll find plenty of reasons to relax and savor the moment in your own slice of the outdoors.

The pool is open from mid-April to late October, giving you plenty of time to enjoy a refreshing swim.

Enjoy long walks or runs along the surrounding paths, breathe in the fresh air, and pick some wildflowers along the way.

You can also enjoy a moment in our garden with a glass of wine, soaking in the panoramic views of the vineyards.

Got kids? They will love playing outside.

We’re not a hotel with a concierge or bellboy. We’re a family, living right here, sharing this space with you. You’ll likely find us tending to the vines, gardening, or having meetings. Don’t be shy—say hi!

You’ve probably heard about our famous breakfast. You can order it for one day or every day, but that’s where our culinary offerings end. We’ve got Catalan cookbooks in every house if you’re feeling adventurous, or you can head out to one of the great local restaurants nearby.

Or, if you prefer, prepare your own breakfast and enjoy it outdoors! Each year, we produce a small batch of extra virgin olive oil—just as delicious as you’d imagine—and it’s available for purchase here. And if you haven’t tried pa amb tomàquet yet, well, it just might change your life.

We cultivate over 150 acres of vineyards around our home. If you’re curious about anything—from pruning to harvest to winemaking—just ask. We’re always happy to share what we do.



Also known as the Country of Cava, Penedès is one of Spain’s great wine destinations. With over 300 wineries translating our terroir into some of the country’s finest wines, there’s no shortage of places to explore—and many are happy to open their doors to visitors.

Ever tried fideuà? It’s like paella’s cooler, noodle-y cousin. We’re happy to share a recipe—or point you to a spot that does it right.

The rumors are true—our regional food is the stuff of legend. We’ll point you to the best spots and the must-try dishes. And if you’re here in August, you’re in luck: it’s fig season and harvest time. Grapes are coming off the vines, and the whole region smells like the start of wine.

We take wining and dining seriously. Around here, we make our own natural wine and olive oil, and we don’t take the good things in life for granted. If you’re the kind of person who talks about their next meal while still eating the current one—we’ll get along just fine.

Have you heard of Castellers? They’re 10-floor human towers, and that’s just a taste of our local culture. Let us point you to where you can watch these incredible feats live, alongside the locals.

Each year, we experiment with small-batch wines from our best plots—playing with styles like amphora aging, skin contact, and whatever else sparks our curiosity and brings out the best in the fruit.

We’ve mentioned hiking, but if cycling is more your thing, you’re in the right place. Bring your own bike or let us point you to local spots that rent both electric and regular ones.

We don’t gatekeep. Once you book, we’ll send over our personal guide with all our favorite spots and activities.
