Flat in Barcelona, Catalonia

Our flat is located in a quiet corner of El Born trendy quarter. You can walk to the beach next to the Olympic harbour (15 minutes), to the fisher's harbour (la Barceloneta, also 15 minutes walk) or to many visitor's attractions as el Palau de la Música, museu Picasso, Santa Maria del Mar, or el barri gòtic, all of them within less than 15 minutes walk. If you have kids it's good to know that there are many playing grounds nearby and also el Parc de la Ciutadella just in front of us (it's what we see from the balcony). El Born is also very well known for its shops, from food market to the most trendy clothing. If you like good restaurants, you will also find them next door.
The flat is also very well communicated. It takes only 5 minuts to go to the train station (estació de França) that connects you to the airport and many interesting places like Sitges, Tarragona, Port Aventura (if you have kids) or Girona. To move around the city, it takes 3 minutes to reach the Underground station (metro, Arc de Trimf station).

Our apartment is in the 5th floor of a building with lift. The apartment has a balcony and although the quarter is normally very busy, the apartment is quiet.
The apartment has 2 bedrooms, a bathroom, a big living-room with an office corner, a dress room and an open kitchen.
In the kids room there are 3 beds and in the big bedroom there's a double bed.

Lifestyle

We are a family of four and we like both nature and cities. We enjoy hiking in the mountains and swimming in the lakes but also visiting interesting museums, watching movies and eating in good restaurants. It's because of this that we can be your perfect intervac partner, we can give advice on where to go out of the city or what to do if you stay!
When we stay at home we like cooking, reading, movies, Lego and Playmobil.
