Coastal Melody

Coastal Melody: Catalonia

Seventy-five metres from the beach and with two outdoor terraces to choose from, this family-sized home makes for a fabulous seaside holiday. Located in the heart of Sitges, stroll two minutes to reach the lounger-lined sand of Sitges Beach, and spend evenings exploring the tapas joints, seafood restaurants and cosy little wine bars of the old town. A seven-minute stroll will take you to Sitges train station.

A tall and slender townhouse, the designers of this townhouse have created a homely spot, packed with curios and object d’art. The ground floor is dedicated to the open kitchen, dining and living room. Double doors lead from the kitchen to a quiet little courtyard with a bistro set. Going up a level, there’s an office area on the landing furnished with books and a desk made from reclaimed window shutters. The first, smaller terrace is up here too, with comfy chairs for evening drinks.

On the second floor, you’ve got a second seating area for a quiet moment with a good book and up one more level, on the top floor, a sofa bed provides the sleeping space for a fifth and sixth guest. This is where you’ll find the crowning glory of this home – the rooftop terrace. Out here, there’s enough room for the whole group to dine and view stretch over the rooftops of Sitges to the beach and sea beyond.

Home truths:
*All of the bedrooms are upstairs so this place may not be suitable for those with limited mobility
*At capacity, two guests will be on a sofa bed in the second living area on the top floor
*A change of bed linen is included with stays longer than a week
*Having a car is not necessary as you're in the centre of Sitges and public transport to Barcelona is plentiful too
