| Special dates | Christmas, New Year and bank holidays are priced differently |
| Minimum stay | 2 nights at weekends · 7 in July and August · 3 over New Year |

How much does a rural house for a group in Girona cost?
When you rent the whole house, the price is shared by everyone. That is why, for a group of 16 to 25, a farmhouse like Can Micos usually works out cheaper per person than a hotel or several apartments, and you are all together.
In low season prices start at €32 per person per night. Christmas, New Year and bank holidays are priced differently, and in July and August the minimum stay is one week. The exact price depends on your dates and how many of you there are, so the best thing is to ask for a quote: we reply in about 30 minutes.
Whole house, hotel or apartments: which is better value?
For a group of 16 to 25 there are three usual options. This is what changes between them:
| Whole rural house | Hotel | Several apartments | |
|---|---|---|---|
| How you pay | For the house, shared by everyone | Per room | Per apartment |
| Shared spaces | Lounge, dining room and garden just for the group | Shared with other guests | Each in their own flat |
| Meals | Kitchen and barbecue to cook together | Restaurant | Small separate kitchens |
| Pool | Private | Shared, if there is one | It depends |
| The group | All under one roof | Spread along corridors | Spread across several flats |
That is why the whole house makes more sense the closer you are to 25 people: the price is shared by more people and nobody misses the long chats after dinner.

How to save on a group trip to the countryside
Four things we see every year in the groups that make the most of their budget.
Come in low season
- Best price
- Quiet house
Outside Christmas, New Year and bank holidays prices are at their lowest. And in winter the fireplace in the lounge does the rest.
The more of you, the less each pays
- 16 to 25 people
- Whole house
The price of the house is shared by everyone: the closer you are to 25, the less each person pays.
Cook at the house
- Equipped kitchen
- Covered barbecue
With a large kitchen and the barbecue, eating in is the biggest saving on a group weekend, and often the best part of the trip.
Free things to do nearby
- On foot or by car
- No tickets
Walks from the door, the Estany de Sils wetland or the villages of La Selva: the weekend does not have to cost more than the house.
