Rounding the corner from this bijou Barcelona apartment you’re faced directly with the imposing facade of Gaudi’s La Sagrada Familia in all its glory. It’s a two-minute stroll to Barcelona’s most famous attraction, and a fifteen-minute walk in the other direction sees you at the luxury-shop-lined Passeig de Gracia where Casa Mila and Casa Batllo show off Gaudi’s flair for the fantastical. Explore the atmospheric streets around the apartment to discover late-night tapas bars and fabulous restaurants.

Returning to this calming apartment is a delight after the bustle of the city. Sage-green walls and lightwood floors feel natural and you can put your feet up on the tufted grey sofa after a long day. Double glass doors open up to a Juliet balcony overlooking the street below and let the daylight stream in. The kitchenette can provide a quick breakfast before days exploring, and the floor to ceiling windows in the master bedroom make it a delight to wake up in.
