Shimmer & Spice: Madrid

Nestled right in the heart of Madrid, just five minutes away from the Puerta del Sol, you'll find this flawless apartment. Combining a fabulous location with plenty of style, it's an excellent place to call home during your stay in the capital.

Step inside, and you'll find a gorgeous open-plan space with high ceilings and lots of light flooding in through the huge windows. You'll love the combination of modern shapes and natural textures, which creates an effortlessly tranquil ambiance. The smart kitchen has everything you need to whip up some tasty dishes, and you'll love sipping your morning coffee at the breakfast bar as you finalise your itinerary for the day. And, when evening rolls around, you can head out to the balcony for a nightcap in the fresh air as you watch the street scenes below.

Once you've visited the bustling Puerta del Sol and taken some pictures, it's time to explore the rest of this vibrant city. You can wander over to the Royal Palace in eighteen minutes to learn about Spain's rich history, and in the other direction, you'll find the Museo Nacional del Prado, just thirteen minutes away. And, when you want to relax after all that sightseeing, spend some time at the rose garden in the Parque de El Retiro before enjoying a picnic by the lake.

Home truths:
*You can use your laptop at the dining table if you need to work remotely
*If you're arriving by car then you'll need to find a local car park as this home does not have a parking space
*This home is located on the second floor of the building and there is no elevator, so guests need to be happy taking the stairs
