This bright, bohemian apartment is an excellent home from home in Madrid. It’s ideally suited to families, tucked away in a residential area but still in a prime central location. The apartment is an instant mood-lifter, with bright colours at every angle. A floor-to-ceiling patio window brings light into the living space, and is the perfect place to sip your morning coffee. There are quirky touches galore, and rustic elements like terracotta floors and the exposed brick behind the piano add depth. It’s a comfortable space too, with plenty of room for lounging around while you’re taking a breather from seeing the sights. It’s only an eleven-minute walk from Gran Via, which is a great place to begin your exploration of Madrid. Whether you’re there to splash some cash or plan to stick to window-shopping, you’ll love strolling along the streets that connect the plazas. For a slightly more laid-back introduction to the city’s sights, walk twenty minutes to Plaza Mayor. Take a seat in the plaza, lined with historic red buildings, and sample some local vino as you watch the world go by.

But at night, it truly comes alive – stores stay open late and the bars even later. Pelayo Street is teeming with restaurants, cocktail bars and boutiques, while Plaza de Chueca is the go-to meeting...
