Tarraco

Holiday Rental Description

El Poble Sec is not only one of the oldest neighbourhoods in Barcelona, but it’s also the best place access to Montjuïc, the 173-metre-high mountain overlooking the city. This apartment has been renovated fairly recently, and the result is a contemporary space that will delight guests. The open-plan setup makes socialising easy – pop open some Spanish wine and chat to your fellow travellers as you put arrange some tapas to enjoy together. The private balcony is a great spot to enjoy your morning coffee in perfect peace, and there's even more outdoor space on the shared roof terrace. Flop down on one of the loungers to catch some rays, or make friends with your neighbours over a cool drink. The surrounding area is packed with little pavement cafés where you can watch the world go by, along with theatres and bars. The iconic Plaça d'Espanya is less than ten minutes away on foot, while there are several public gardens surrounding Montjuïc if you're craving some green space. And, with the nearest metro station just six minutes away, it's quick and easy to get around the rest of the city.
