Between the sea and the mountains. Close to Barcelona, beach, walks, roman ruins, vineyards, medieval monasteries, gastronomy. Visit us & enjoy it: Great experience!
Between the sea and the mountain: We live in Sant Pere de Ribes, 4 km. from sand beaches (Sitges), 40 km. from Barcelona. The village is next to many interesting sites like Tarragona with its roman past, Vilanova, Vilafranca del Penedès and Sitges, villages with beautiful beaches and historical past. Most important catalan wine and cava cellars are very close to our village. Visit the Penedès and enjoy the wine and cava tourism, walks and culture of a unique region!
Barcelona is very near. Buses take 35 minutes to get it. It’s a cosy city with an important old centre and with lots of museums, old and new architecture and with the most important modernist buildings.
Our village has all the services than you can need: supermarkets, restaurants, cafés, little squares and streets to walk a promenade.
The apartment (125 sqm) has got a spacious living/dining-rooom, kitchen, two large bedrooms, two bathrooms and a study. It’s situated in a sunny place.
Our visitors coincided in saying that our home is quiet and very conveniently located, so close to the beach and nature and at the same time very well connected to Barcelona.
We're interested in swapping homes for weekend trips to europeen cities. NON SIMULTANEOUS EXCHANGE IS POSSIBLE :-)
