Softly Over

Occupying a spot in the Puente de Vallecas neighbourhood, this contemporary apartment is perfect for those who want to be far from the bustle of the city centre but well connected to the capital’s best bits. Hop on the metro and arrive at the manicured Retiro Park in thirty minutes or stretch your legs with a ten-minute stroll over to the Cerro del Tío Pío Park for unbeatable views of Madrid. If sightseeing is on the agenda, head into the Centro district for the Plaza Mayor, Gran Vía and Royal Palace.

Inside the home, it’s calm and collected with Nordic-inspired furnishings and natural textures that add an inviting warmth to the place. The kitchenette is equipped with everything you need for putting together traditional Spanish dishes and the bright living area is the perfect place to unwind with an evening glass of wine. Leading off the bedroom, you’ll find a dink balcony – it was our favourite place to start the morning with a cup of coffee.
