About Cantallops
This small town in Northeastern Catalonia is a bucolic mountain town that offers a large change of scenery of the coastal towns nearby. While having a massively declining population for the last several decades, more people have been moving to and visiting Cantallops due to its quiet way of life, abundant winemaking, several high quality restaurants, and country homes that are available to rent for a quiet stay away from the hustle and bustle of towns such asBarcelona. The name of the town, which sounds a good deal like, "cantaloupes" in English literally means "singing at wolves". But when analyzed in a historical sense is believed to mean, "wolves' rock" due to the large rock outcropping the town is built upon and the abundance of wolves in the area through the 19th century.
