Les Nenas B&B
Jafre

Las Nenas B&B is a cozy private bed and breakfast located in the small medieval town of Jafre, one of the many medieval towns that dot the province of Girona in northeast Catalunya, Spain near the Costa Brava. The small town is surrounded by fields and forests, perfect for rambling, close to all the resorts, yet tranquil. The house itself is a typical casa de poble --house in the town-- dating back to the early 18th century, yet recently restored.

The house features 3 double non-smoking rooms to rent:
• Núria is a shady double room with trees and birds to lull you to rest.
• Maria Juanita is a large double room with a window overlooking the patio garden, the scent of the rose arbor floating in as you take a break in your private seating area.
• Laura is a bright and colorful double room with a view over the Ter river valley.
Room rates are 50€ per night per room with shared bathroom or 70€ for ensuite room and include breakfast.

The 3 rooms share 2 baths. Guests are free to use the 2 salons, the dining room and a large, sunny garden. Breakfast is continental featuring local sausages and cheeses, as well as coffee, tea, cereals, yogurt, pastries and fruit. Breakfast is served between 8:30am and 10:30am, checkout time is noon, and check-in time is 5pm to 7pm. If you wish to breakfast or arrive at a different time, please notify the innkeepers so they can be available to help you.

There are 2 sweet dogs and a lap loving cat, to keep you company if you wish.

Las Nenas is located in the town of Jafre, in the golden triangle of northeastern Catalunya. Nestled between the sea and the mountains, Jafre is a perfect central location to base your exploration of this beautiful rural area.

Around the town are extensive biking trails, as well as local and regional hiking trails. By car, you are only minutes away from the beaches, the scuba and boat tours of the Islas Medes. Thirty minutes to the north are the attractions of Cap de Creus, with the lovely town of Cadaqués, and the ancient monastery of Sant Pere de Rodes.

Jafre is also in the center of the Dalí triangle, which comprises the museum created by Dalí in Figueres, his home in Port Lligat, and the home he designed for his wife Gala in the castle of Púbol.

Your hosts and cookery!!!!
Katy Ross and Martha Kroncke --Las Nenas-- started working in kitchens in the United States at tender ages. Because of this background, they incorporate the culinary arts into the daily life of the inn. After travelling extensively, they chose the small town of Jafre, Girona-Catalunya, as the perfect place to begin a new venue.

From their Bed & Breakfast they offer cooking classes, and wine and olive oil tastings. Their collective experience of over 40 years includes years of teaching at the California Culinary Academy and stints at various high profile restaurants in San Francisco: Chez Panisse, China Moon, One Market, Vertigo, and Venezia.

Cooking Classes
Often there are informal barbecues on the terrace with groups observing and learning as they cook. Las Nenas teach many styles of cooking. Catalan and Spanish dishes, such as paella, will be interesting for those exploring the area. For the adventurous, there are also classes in Asian cuisines and Latin cuisines. Guests then eat on the patio in good weather or in the dining room if too hot or cold. 

The classes begin at 6 or 6:30 pm in the evening. The ideal number of students is 2-4 adults. The class then prepares dinner to the specifications of their menu. Classes for the students are 40€ each, guests of the ‘cooks’ will be 15€ per person. Les Nenas need confirmation of numbers and menu for the class the day before, so that they can prepare.

Meals
Dinners are available with prior notice and include 4 courses, wine and water, for 18 – 20+€ per person, depending on wine selection and menu. We start with a pica-pica (traditional Spanish nibbles), appetizer, entrée, dessert and then coffee and an after dinner drink. You can request any type of cuisine or type of food. Special dietary needs such as vegetarian, macrobiotic, seafood only, or international dishes can be met. However, with this there may be an additional surcharge
