Stefan and Frank provide a wonderful dining experience at the Coll De Rates restaurant with views which are unrivalled across the Jalon Valley and as far as Oliva and Ibiza on a clear day. A truly great international menu is offered at each of their restaurants to suit all tastes and at very reasonable prices. The homemade apple strudel is a must, so leave some space for it.
You'll not go home hungry!
