Flores: Madrid

Nature and fashion come together in perfect harmony in this beautiful apartment. Located in Madrid’s upscale Salamanca neighbourhood – known for its grand 19th-century boulevards, designer boutiques and fine dining restaurants – this home is a perfect reflection of its prestigious locale and offers a wonderfully stylish base from which to explore the city.

Wood floors and a sloping ceiling make a welcome first impression in the open-plan living space, with a green velvet sofa and pretty shuttered windows adding a country-chic vibe to the proceedings. The kitchen, meanwhile, is all swish and snazzy with its marble kitchen island and blue velvet chairs, and there’s a desk space here too should you need to catch up on work.

Our favourite feature, however, is the private suntrap terrace – the ideal spot to begin your days with an alfresco breakfast and end evenings with a glass of wine at sunset.

With two comfortable, elegant bedrooms to boot – each promising a relaxing night’s sleep – you’ve got everything you need to experience the city in luxurious style.

When you’re not hanging out in your plush pad, pack a picnic to enjoy in El Retiro Park (a five-minute walk) or hit the shops along Gran Vía (an eighteen-minute walk). You’re also an eighteen-minute walk from the National Museum of Romanticism, while the famous Museo Nacional del Prado is a twenty-minute stroll from your door.
