FOREST DAYS'
LITTLE FOREST STORE
Our little shop in the forest
Welcome to our small Camp Store.
We’ve always been fascinated by those quirky and dusty corner stores which you find still now in small remote towns. Inside them, necessity rules instead of fashion.
You can find all sorts of things in them: string, seeds, wooden handles, beside tins of beans, stamps and shoe shine. There’s a wisdom in that chaos because is extremely functional.
Here we’ve tried to find and offer you beautiful, quirky and also practical things, which we think will make your experience with us more interesting, fulfilling and memorable. Over time we’ll keep on adding some more tempting items to this hodgepodge.
But don't be put off by the jumble! Shopping is always more fun when is unpredictable, don’t you think?
Happy browsing!

CRAFTS:
Forest Spirits
/ˈfɒrɪst ˈspɪrɪt/
Noun - Nom - Nombre
"A supernatural, incorporeal being, believed to inhabit the forest."
The magic behind knocking on wood.
For centuries in indo-european cultures, people believed that forests were inhabited by tree spirits, a supernatural being, deeply wise and kind, but immensely powerful.
Seasoned travellers, when crossing the threshold of a forest, would gently knock on the trunk of a tree in order to awaken the sleeping spirit inside and as a request for their guidance and protection during the journey.
The mere act of being in contact with this powerful and benevolent force, was believed to be a source of tranquillity and calmness.
It was customary to carve a Forest Spirit on a piece of wood, which in turn became a prized talisman that was gifted to loved ones. His presence, in a home, brought prosperity, health, good luck and well-being. When a home welcomed a Forest Spirit, it would be forever protected and blessed.
The Forest Spirits we present you here, lovingly carved by patient hands who love and respect this wood born of local Catalan forests, are very unique.
With their humble raw beauty, they take us to an ingenuous, honest world of unquestionable authenticity, where true magic lies in everlasting simplicity.
Every time we take a look at them,
they’ll quietly remind us of that remarkable lesson.

This will get you licking your chops as fast as you say "Greased Lightning"! All you have to bring to the table is a good appetite after a day of adventures, and let the professional Chefs do the rest.
We’ve partnered with the lovely people of our excellent neighbouring restaurant - Santa Llúcia Restaurant - to bring you a spoonful of Solsonès County and Pyrenean Cuisine to your plate, in no time!
Introducing:
our Ready Camp Meals for 2 people
With Diego and Rosa, the owners and Chef at this local restaurant, we share a deep love for this valley. Those beautiful rolling hills that make us all so happy and all the goodness it can offer, when it comes to local produce.
And we’re really chuffed they will be serving some of their best local dishes to our hungry guests!
We absolutely love that these Camp Food is prepared with beautiful meat from the organic neighbouring farm - Cal Pauet de la Vall d’Ora (ahem.. at 0.8 Kms!) - and vegetables harvested on the hillside fields of this prepirinean area. Like the utterly famous “Mountain Black Pea” - a local green pea variety that grows only in this altitude to give it their renowned flavour.
This is good honest food at its best. Unfussy and unpretentious. A dream for any camper to fill up their billy can with so much magic.
These guys know what they’re doing and we really can't choose which one is best, Meat or Veg, they are both so good!
So sorry, we are no help with the decision. Yum!
The Details
The meals are designed for two people and you can choose your main dish from Meat or Vegetarian options in the following manner: two meat dishes, two vegetarian dishes, or one of each.
You can request your CAMP FOOD when you make your Booking – look out for them in the ‘Additional Extras’ section - or later on, simply by contacting us using the form below.
