The age-old debate of city versus country is null and void at this stunning home. Located on the edge of the 8,000-hectare Serra de Collserola Natural Park, this spectacular villa offers scenic cycling, fantastic birdwatching and ancient history right on your doorstep, while the bohemian beachside vibes of Barcelona are only twenty-five minutes away.
Being so close to a city that's so well known for its architecture, it's only fitting that this home should be a bit of a beauty when it comes to design. Set over two floors, the exterior is clad in wood to blend in with the natural surroundings, while the open-plan interior offers almost 360-degree access to the outdoors. Floor-to-ceiling sliding doors open onto the expansive terrace, where you'll find plenty of seating and an inviting pool perfect for cooling off over the summer months.
Away from the home, you'll find a host of activities on offer, including golf, tennis, horse riding and hiking trails. Meanwhile, the town of Sant Cugat del Vallès – with its theatres, quirky museums (including one dedicated to Marilyn Monroe) and vast antique market – is just 6km away and well worth exploring. What's more, from here you can take the Ferrocariles Catalanes into downtown Barcelona, a twenty-minute train ride away.
*We'd recommend a car to explore the wider area – there's ample on-site parking
*Child-friendly amenities such as a cot and highchair are available on request
*Your host will greet you on arrival
*There is lift access to this both levels of this two-storey home, so it may be suitable for those with limited mobility
*The standard number of guests is twelve, though this can be increased on request – there are two single sofa beds in the living room (suitable for children only)
*Your hosts will be living in separate on-site accommodation during your stay, so they can be on hand if needed, but they're more than happy to leave you to it
