Bowsprit Madrid, Community of Madrid

Holiday Rental Description

With a fabulous location in the heart of the theatre district, this home will appeal to culture vultures. It's situated just behind Teatro Nuevo Apolo. Art lovers, on the other hand, can head to "the walk of art" (just over ten minutes on foot), where you'll find the Museo del Prado, Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía, and Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum.

Madrid's most famous and central square, Puerta del Sol, is nine minutes on foot. The Casa de Correos here houses the regional government of the Comunidad de Madrid. There are several statues, too – the most notable is the statue of a bear looking for fruit on a madroño (strawberry tree) – the city's official symbol.

Housed in a building dating back to 1876, this elegant, newly refurbished apartment is the perfect Madrid bolthole. Inside, Sol has carefully chosen furnishings that add a bit of character. We love the vintage bureau and drinks cabinet, as well as the ornate headboard and planted baskets. Open the French doors to the pretty balcony and take a seat on the comfy sofa.

Your lovely host provides a breakfast hamper of coffee, tea, herb infusions, chocolate, milk and pastries too. She really has thought of everything to make your stay here special.
