Hardworker, innovative and passionate, she is the one who shapes the daily life of the house. She loves welcoming people and preparing breakfast with their own local products.
She works non stop to maintain the farm and she has the virtue of never giving up when challenges of life appear in our realities.
You will be able to see her every day, busy at home, taking care of all the animals and the environment of the house. Her gifts: attention to others and cooking passion.
Mas Po dates from 1850 when a family from Barcelona, like so many others, came to Cerdanya to spend their summertime and had this farmhouse built. A few years later, around 1900, the Carrera family bought Mas Po and began trading cattle and engaging in agriculture. This farmhouse with almost 200 years of history has given home to 6 generations of the Carrera family, which has maintained the farm by carrying out various agricultural and livestock activities.
At 2012 we, Aurelie and Jordina, decided to continue with the family business with the main objective of preserving our historical heritage. It was very hurting to think that this farmhouse would cease to be what it had been for so many years and so many generations, so we took heart and today we are still standing preserving everything we believe to be an authentic way of life.
Over the years we have learned the farmer's trade and we are convinced that we have an obligation to preserve all this rural knowledge and make it grow, sharing and creating synergies with other people who love the region as much as we do.
We liked what we were doing, but we saw that it was not economically sustainable, since the small farm we have was not enough to guarantee the subsistence of the family. In 2017 we made the decision to give Mas Po a new life by building an ecological and sustainable rural tourism where we can show people the simple life of a farmer, and that another lifestyle is possible if we listen to the land and observe our environment.
Our objective is to make society aware that a different consumption model is possible and that we should all do it together, since the earth suffers an abuse of its natural resources and we are not aware that without nature and biodiversity we cannot exist.
It also makes us very happy to see how the people around us, as well as our guests, appreciate all the effort we make every day to preserve everything that all our ancestors have built for so many decades. Without our past history and our memories, we could not move forward to preserve our natural and human heritage.
In 2019 we open the doors of our country house to guests who want to experience a natural rural lifestyle.

Located in Puigcerdà village, capital of Cerdanya region and surrounded by a natural area within the most important town in the valley.
The accommodation is just great, simple and cozy. It is quite close to the center of Puigcerdà, 10 min walk, it is true that it is hard to get there but just for the fact of staying with Jordina, it is worth it. Jordina gave us advice on where to eat and what we could go to see in the area. And the truth is that everything is great! It is definitely a place to return to.
Located in a quiet area close to the center. Luxury breakfasts. Rooms are very well equipped. Very comfortable common areas and an excellent hostess. They have everything to enjoy a few days of peace and tranquility to enjoy the area. 100% recommendable. We will repeat!
We have been staying in the house for a few days and it is wonderful. The owners are charming, even before arrival. The recommendations of what to see or do in the area could not have been more spot on. And to top it off, the breakfasts...
