Wicker & Woven

Wicker & Woven: Catalonia

Nestled among the stylish boutiques and delicious dining spots of classy Vila de Gràcia, this apartment takes on the characteristics of its surroundings. With effortlessly tasteful interiors matching the beauty of this barrio, you’re sure to feel right at home. We love how the decor mixes modernity with traditional sensibilities. Countryside elements of northern Spain are certainly present – woven rugs, classic tiling, wicker baskets, rustic wooden furniture and shelves (handmade, of course). But then you’ll also find a hanging egg chair, modern art prints, and sleek grey grey kitchen cabinets. With a balcony in the living space, and another balconette in the bedroom, bring in views of lush foliage from outside to add a pop of green to an otherwise earthy, understated colour scheme. The atmosphere just feels incredibly warm, relaxing, and serene. Drop the needle on the record player and kick back with a glass of tempranillo after a day of discovering the Catalan capital. With this area being a Gaudí hotspot, you can wander to Casa Milà in just ten minutes, or Casa Batlló in fifteen.

Home truths:
*The main balcony is only accessible from the open office area, so if someone is planning to work here, they might be disturbed *You'll have a washing machine for laundry, but no tumble dryer – the warm climate should suffice though *Your host does not provide shampoo and conditioner, so you'll need to bring your own or head to a nearby shop *As this home is in one of Barcelona’s most popular areas, some city and street noise is to be expected just in case *There is only air conditioning in some rooms*This host requires your check-in to be within 3-5 days from when the last booking ends.
