Our Neighborhood
Our house (Masia) is located 1km from Argensola town, a small town near Cervera, Igualada and Santa Coloma de Queralt. We only have one direct neighbors, a retired couple. The countryside is typical from the rainfed Mediterranean climate, with about 600mm precipitation per year, lots of pine and oak forests and wheat fields. In July is quite hot, getting about 30ºC at midday. We are at about 700m altitude. You can find supermarkets and everything you need in one of the three towns
We are located strategically:
1 hour driving from Tarragona (we usually go to Altafulla, a familiar quite beach)
1,5 h from the Pyrenees. Andorra is about 2h driving
1 hour from Barcelona and 1 hour from lleida
