Steps to Sol

This home is just two minutes away from the Puerta del Sol, one of Madrid's most famous meeting places. And, not only does it have a fantastic location in the heart of the capital, it's also a charming and tranquil place to kick back and relax between your adventures.

Step inside, and you'll find a serene space that invites you to kick off your shoes and get comfortable. The interiors take plenty of inspiration from nature to create a true sanctuary in the city – spot the leaf-print cushion, natural wood detailing, and tiny giraffe sculpture. When you get hungry, you can whip up your favourite dishes in the kitchen to enjoy at the chic dining space. And, if you fancy a nightcap, pour a glass of Rioja to enjoy on the little balcony as you watch the world go by below.

Once you've got your bearings with a wander through the bustling Puerta del Sol, it's time to explore more of the city. Culture vultures will be happy that the Royal Palace is just a five-minute walk away, where you can immerse yourself in Spanish history. You can also walk to the Museo Nacional del Prado in just fourteen minutes, and if you're craving some green space then head to Parque de El Retiro for a picnic beside 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
