Bellcaire d’Empordà is a village in the Baix Empordà on the plain that stretches north of the Montgrí massif.

We explain this in our guide to buying a masia in the Empordà.

What a masia is like in this area

The masies of the Empordà are stone farmhouses, often several centuries old, built to house the family and its farming activity. They retain thick walls, vaulted ceilings and large rooms, and many have outbuildings —stables, haylofts, granaries— that can be turned into guest houses, studios or multi-purpose spaces. The most careful restorations add a pool, a garden and modern installations without losing the character of the house.

Between the Montgrí and the sea

Bellcaire’s landscape is shaped by the silhouette of the Montgrí and its castle, the fields of the plain and the nearby Montgrí, Medes Islands and Baix Ter Natural Park. The beaches of L’Escala and L’Estartit, sailing and diving around the Medes are all part of the setting.

Life in Bellcaire d’Empordà

Life in Bellcaire is quiet and closely tied to the countryside. L’Escala and Torroella de Montgrí, a few minutes away, offer shops, a market and services all year round, and Girona completes the offer.

Restored masia or one to renovate

A restored masia lets you enjoy a house full of character with every modern comfort from day one. A masia to renovate gives you the chance to design every space and bring back original features —exposed stone, vaulted ceilings, timber beams— in exchange for a construction period and a more detailed preliminary assessment. Our team will help you weigh up each option with the necessary technical and planning information.

Main residence or second home

Bellcaire d’Empordà is chosen both as a second home, for its proximity to the beaches, and for living much of the year in the countryside.
