A castle documented since 1123 on the outskirts of Peralada, among fields and vineyards, with ten rooms, breakfast included and dogs in five of them.

A 12th-century castle among the fields of Peralada
Castell de Vallgornera has a documented history since 1123 and is on the outskirts of Peralada, in the Alt Empordà, among fields, vineyards and hills. It keeps two square towers on the east side and an almost rectangular enclosure with a parade ground in the centre; in the 18th century it was extended. In the renovation they reused furniture from the old castle and second-hand pieces, and they buy bread, cured meats and bed linen from local suppliers.
It is small: ten rooms with fortress names, from 24 to 37 m², all with a king-size bed, air conditioning, wifi, minibar and hairdryer. Each has its own character. Torreón occupies one of the towers. Patio is the suite, with a private terrace and fireplace. Baluarte, at 37 m², has the bathroom carved into the rock. Bastión looks out over the countryside from the bathroom. Arco has the bath next to the bed and is adapted for people with reduced mobility. Armería, the smallest, has its own terrace. Alcoba and Atrio are on the second floor and have a separate entrance, and Saeta, on the ground floor, looks onto the gardens.
Breakfast included and an honesty bar
There is no restaurant: the castle serves only breakfast, which is included. It is made with local produce and is taken from 8:00 to 11:00 in the lounge, on the parade ground or in the room. For the afternoon you have the honesty bar, where you serve yourself a drink or a glass of wine. In the website gallery you can see a pool in the garden, under a pergola.
The rooms are for two people. Torreón, Bastión, Baluarte and Saeta admit a child's bed, so it is more a couple's place than a family one. The castle is a smoke-free space: smoking is only outside. Reception is open from 9:00 to 21:00; check-in is from 15:00 and, if you arrive after 21:00, they give you a code and the key, and at night you enter by a side door with your own PIN. Check-out is at 12:00.
With a dog, choose your room carefully: they are admitted in Arco, Armería, Baluarte, Saeta and Almena, and not in Alcoba, Torreón or Bastión. Arrange it with the management when booking.
