This marvellous home is a true gem nestled in the centre of Barcelona. With a generous amount of space both inside and out, it's the ultimate city sanctuary where you can kick back and relax between your adventures. There's a desert theme running throughout the duplex, which you'll find reflected in the soft colour scheme and natural textures. The living space is a fabulous place to spend some quality time with your guests – pop a vinyl on the record player and sip some wine as you plan the itinerary for your stay. Step outside, and you'll find a gorgeous patio area and dining table for alfresco feasts. And, perhaps best of all, there's a dreamy corner complete with a hammock – when you need some respite from city life, this is where to go. The surrounding Eixample area is famous for its art nouveau boulevards which are packed with boutiques and smart restaurants. If you like exploring cities on foot, then you can walk over to Gaudi's Casa Mila and the Sagrada Familia is a little further – otherwise, you can hop on the metro. And, the historic Gothic Quarter is not too far away either – you'll love... getting lost in the narrow medieval streets.
