Canyelles
Petites is in the heart of Catalonia, and by road is 25 miles south of
the French border. It's location, in the more peaceful Northern part of the Costa Brava, makes it an excellent choice for holiday Apartments and Villas of the Spanish, French, Dutch and British. It is 750 miles by road from Calais - a 12 twelve hour drive, very comfortably achieved with an overnight stop in France.
The main town of Figueres, home of the Salvador Dali museum, is 13 miles west, and the town of Roses (with the harbour for Costa Brava's largest fishing fleet) is just 2 miles west.
| Nearest airports are: | Gerona |
(46 miles) |
| Perpignan | (57 miles) | |
| Barcelona | (108 miles) |
Being at the base of the Pyrenees' foothills, the nearest ski resort is just one hour's drive. To the north and west of Canyelles Petites is the Parc Natural del Cap Creus, the largest uninhabited area in the Spanish Mediterranean.
