This 17th-century cottage sits in the pretty hamlet of Sant Pau d'Ordal. From the front door, it’s a five-minute wander to a small selection of local restaurants and bars, you’re a stone’s throw from the Penedes wine region, packed with vineyards to explore. Barcelona is just a half-hour drive away too, so you can spend the day admiring Gaudi's masterpieces in the big city before returning to your peaceful country retreat. If you’ve picked up a few local wines from the Penedes region, perhaps enjoy them in the sun-dappled stone courtyard, which feels distinctly 17th century with its alcoves and honey-hued stone. Thick stone walls keep things cool inside, and old archways are on display for that traditional farmhouse feel. Dark wood, antique furniture throughout is a charming touch and we love the provincial master bedroom with its own slender balcony for a quiet moment alone.

About Catalonia
Catalonia is home to the Costa Brava coastline, the Pyrenees Mountains, and the cultural jewel that is Barcelona. It’s a region rich in history and is the birthplace of Dalí, Gaudi, and the Barca football club. Soak up the culture in Barcelona and Girona before hitting the coast – the Cap de Begur coves are a must-see, as is the picture-perfect town of Cadaqués, which is known for its white...

Go see a football match at Camp Nou
The stadium of Camp Nou has been the home stadium of FC Barcelona since its completion in 1957. It's always got great energy and seeing the team play on their home turf is an absolute treat.
Visit the impossible view at Tibidabo
The place doesn't even look real when you see the photos. The fantastical church of Sagrat Cor in the mountains is its greatest hit, but we recommend you take the whole day to explore the mountain.
Spoil your inner wine snob at La Vicoca
A hidden gem and one of the most highly recommended wine bars in the city. Come taste their great selection of wine and delicious tapas!
Get your Waffle Fix
It's easy – march over to this little hideaway and get yourself a mouth watering waffle when you're craving one.
Take a walk through Poble Español
An open-air museum, built for the 1929 Barcelona International Exhibition, it consists of 117 full-scale buildings, intended to showcase the breadth of Spanish architecture.

Go on a shopping spree at Arenas de Barcelona
There aren't many shopping malls in the world that are housed in old bullfighting arenas, we'll tell you that much! All the main Spanish fashion brands can be found here.
See an exhibition at CaixaForum
Located in a converted factory, CaixaForum is Barcelona's prime exhibition and cultural event space. The programme here changes every month, so there's always something new to see.
Visit the Mies van der Rohe pavilion
This minimalist pavilion was designed by the architect Mies van der Rohe in 1929 - it's something of a pilgrimage site for architects.
