Altafulla: Location and surroundings of this property

Altafulla, with a population of approximately 5000 inhabitants, has become in recent years, due to its excellent communications, services, tranquillity and appreciated beaches, a residential area to live in all year round, both for families from Tarragona and Barcelona. Altafulla is a well-preserved village that respects its protected environment and enjoys a mild and warm climate. Altafulla is like an island between the conurbation of Barcelona, Tarragona and the mass tourism of the Costa Dorada. It combines the best of leisure activities, located just a few minutes away, with the tranquillity of an ideal place to live, work, visit and enjoy. Culture, quality of service, natural surroundings and good treatment are outstanding attributes of a tourist offer that complements its main attraction: its people, the beach and the sun. The short distances to other towns and places of interest such as Barcelona, Roman Tarraco, the Costa Dorada, Port Aventura, the Ebro Delta, the routes of Gaudí, Picasso, the Cistercian Route, the gastronomic visits and the good wines and cavas of El Priorat, El Penedès, La Terra Alta and El Baix Gaià, make Altafulla an excellent starting point and destination for a variety of routes that allow you to get to know more closely a very wide and diverse territory. The town was declared a cultural asset of national interest in 1998 by the Generalitat de Catalunya thanks mainly to its old quarter, called Vila Closa. Two years later, in 2000, it was also declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO for its Roman villa of Els Munts.
