My family and I have been coming to Nigel's now for twelve years now! It's fair to say we absolutely love this place - it's home from home (although admittedly we are missing the glorious infinity pool, jacuzzi and sauna back home!) Nigel is a fabulous host and always available for any questions we may have or to share hot tips for visits of the...

Nigel a été très disponible pendant notre séjour : merci à lui pour le pain et les croissants lors de ces visites ! Très belle maison. Piscine très agréable avec une très belle vue. Jacuzzi très apprécié le soir (et même en journée par mes ados !). Nous avons fait farniente pendant 15 jours : quel bonheur !! Merci pour tout !

Hello ! I'm Nigel and I'll be your point of contact for your stay at Casa Cal Domino. I am the owner and manage our guests myself, so whatever your query, I'll be there to answer it and you won't have to wait for an agency to get back to you. I moved to Catalunya in 2004 from the UK after a career as a pilot in the RAF. I love this area for the diversity... you're not too far from the sea or the mountains and I love the outdoors life of hiking, biking and skiing. In fact I met my Galician wife hiking the Collsacabra mountains here and now we have two little Catalan daughters. We both know this area very well and whatever you need, we are happy to advise you. If you do not speak Spanish (or Catalan) we can organise taxis, bike rentals or make restaurant bookings for you. Just ask or wend me a WhatsApp.....
