A farmhouse is much more than a large, seemingly old house.Currently, it can respond to all types of needs: personal enjoyment, meetings, workshops or events.All this, combining ancient elements with the greatest possible modernity and comfort.But, to understand what a farmhouse really is, you have to know its history.Welcome to the MASIA CAN DORI.I'm driving towards Canyelles, one of my friends told me that a relative of theirs wants to sell a little piece of history.He has already told me that I am going to see something very unique, something from another time where everything was simpler without as many complications as now.When I arrive I see a completely clear square where I park at the door easily.I am surprised by the beautiful façade typical of a Catalan, Mediterranean farmhouse, where it can be so restful and sunny that sometimes, the farmhouses house, touching their stones, an orange or a lemon tree and to the right there are usually old fig or mulberry trees.That's when Antonia and Pepe come out to greet me.As they see me looking at the mulberry trees, they ask me if I know what they are for.I am completely ignorant so I look like I don't know the answer.Pepe explains to me that in summer they are used for farmers to take a nap in the light shade.Hahaha Well it makes sense.He proudly shows me a sundial where I can read “Restaurant Masia Can Dori 1790”.Oh really!
