A Place Built
by Cyclists,
for Cyclists

Can Campolier is a beautifully restored 17th-century Catalan estate, set among rolling hills and ancient olive groves just outside the cycling capital of the world.

Founded by professional cyclist Ashleigh Moolman Pasio and her husband, Rocacorba Cycling was born from a simple belief: that the best rides deserve the best rest. Every detail of our hotel has been shaped by what cyclists need — from the perfectly timed meals to the workshop-quality bike care, from the post-ride recovery to the pre-dawn espresso.

But this is more than a cycling hotel. It's a place where the warmth of rural Catalonia meets world-class hospitality. Where mornings begin with birdsong and the scent of fresh bread. Where evenings end with local wine under ancient stone arches.

“We didn't just want to build a place to sleep between rides. We wanted to create the feeling you get at the top of a perfect climb — that everything is exactly where it should be.”

— Ashleigh Moolman Pasio, Co-Founder

Fuel for the
Road & Soul

Great rides deserve memorable food. At Rocacorba, our kitchen celebrates the incredible produce of the Girona region while drawing inspiration from bold flavours and cooking traditions from around the world.

Each day, our chef creates a changing menu shaped by what’s fresh, seasonal, and inspiring in the moment. Expect vibrant shared dishes, fire-grilled meats and vegetables, fragrant herbs, bright sauces, and nourishing plates designed to refuel both body and spirit.

Mornings begin simply — freshly baked bread, local honey, homemade muesli, seasonal fruit, good coffee, and whatever fuel you need for the day’s ride. In the evening, we gather around the table for relaxed, generous dinners that bring people together through food, conversation, and a sense of discovery.

There’s no printed menu — just trust the kitchen, come hungry, and enjoy the experience.
