Maëleen Riochet
★★★★★5 months agoI went on a day when there was a discount because it's quite expensive... But what a story this family had, and what a beautiful house! The guide gave us a tour in Catalan and English; we were a group of about twenty. Everything he said was interesting. So many treasures inside! A must-see. Downstairs at the end of the tour, there's their chocolate shop and a cafeteria where you can taste this delicious chocolate.

★★★★★a month agoI really liked the self guided tour of this house. The house had an interesting owner and history, with a lot of original furniture inside. You don't get to see the entire house but enough of it that it was very worthwhile to see. I would recommend doing this tour if you like viewing historical homes.
