This two-century old house in Sant Mateu, just a few metres away from the church, has a very pleasant and romantic summer terrace, where the longest after-meal conversations can take place. For decades it was a shop and a bar, until 2003, when it was rebuilt, and dining-rooms and an art gallery filled the floors.
