La Polvoreria, is an old "Masia" (tipical Catalan contry-side house) build up before 1630, since is from those days we have found documents of the house. At those days, it belonged to a gun-powder miller, who had a serious accident due to an explosion, and was badly injured. After this accident, he had just the time to write his will, and is due to this fact that today we have notice of him. From those days, the house has been remodeled several times on the following centuries.
Today is a comfortable house which have 5 double rooms, 2 complete baths, an independent WC, and a large and well equiped kitchen - dining room. The lobby is used as a sitting room, from which a large staircase drives to the upper floor, where four of the five rooms are placed. The ground floor room is a comfortable "Suite".
