Bricks & Paintings: Andalusia

A stay at this artsy apartment in the centre of Seville complements the Moorish architecture of the city’s main sights. You enter through a peaceful courtyard, reminiscent of a Moroccan Riad, keeping this central spot nice and quiet. A wall of traditional, wooden-shuttered windows looks out over the courtyard and the interior is a riot of colour thanks to vibrant artworks. Upstairs, you’ll find two bedrooms and a bathroom where the shower’s a little on the small side. The sleek kitchen is stocked for quick breakfasts, but you’ll want to get out and explore the tapas joints, flamenco bars and fabulous restaurants right on your doorstep.

Home truths:
*This apartment is set over two floors, with stairs up to both bedrooms. It may not be suitable for those with limited mobility.
*The windows look out into a courtyard which is quiet but means there's not a lot of natural light flooding in.
*The shower is a bit of a tight squeeze and may not suit tall people.
*If you're travelling for work, you won't find a dedicated desk here. However, the dining table doubles up as a laptop-friendly workspace.
*There is no parking with this home, but you're in the very centre of Seville so having a car is not necessary.
