Between sea and mountains, in the heart of the Pyrénées-Orientales, Mas El Chaparo embraces a lifestyle of simplicity and elegance. It’s a family home, a home of sharing, where you fall asleep after a barbecue, hair still wet from the pool, heart light, with crickets singing in the background. The property features 5 comfortable bedrooms, 4 of which have private en-suite shower rooms — perfect for preserving everyone’s privacy. A shared bathroom is also available for added comfort. A fully self-contained summer annexe completes the ensemble — ideal for hosting friends, teenagers or grandparents seeking independence. Each room exudes the South: natural materials, abundant light, Mediterranean touches, and a relaxed, bohemian spirit. Outside, everything invites barefoot living: a heated pool lined with palm trees, a jacuzzi for late-night chats, a shaded terrace for long meals, a football pitch for kids, a trampoline for laughs, and wide open green spaces to lounge… or gallop. Yes, your horses are welcome too, with dedicated boxes. And all animals are welcome. Dogs, cats, squirrels, hamsters, horses… and even sloths, if they travel well. Everyone has a place at Mas El Chaparo. Nearby, you’ll find Castelnou, one of France’s most beautiful villages, with cobbled streets and a hilltop medieval castle. Just a few minutes away, the Byrrh cellars offer a taste of Catalan tradition, both flavorful and historic. Managed with care by Mademoiselle Conciergerie, this mas is more than just a vacation spot. It’s a parenthesis, a breath of fresh air, a place to reconnect with what matters most: loved ones, sunshine, and the memories we create together.
