Peaceful Tide

If you're seeking a beautifully equipped base on the Barcelona coast, look no further than this chic home. It sits in the peaceful town of Caldes d'Estrac, only five hundred metres from the endless blue of the Mediterranean Sea. Here, you're a forty-minute drive from Barcelona and closer still to Blanes, best known as the gateway to the Costa Brava. Boasting a spacious interior and a slew of on-site amenities, including a shared pool and terrace, it provides an idyllic base for families.

The interior is contemporary and welcoming, cloaked in natural textures and calming neutral tones. After a day at the beach, you'll love kicking back in the open-plan living space, primed for relaxation with plenty of plush seating and a fireplace, not to mention a fully equipped kitchen and spacious dining table. There's even a workspace for catching up on projects between adventures. Outside, a furnished terrace beckons you to unwind in the sunshine. Enjoy your morning coffee here in the crisp sea breeze and, come sunset, gather with your clan for an alfresco feast.
