Barcelona

With a reputation for being one of the most stylish and vibrant cities in the world, Barcelona is the perfect destination for those looking for an exciting and colourful city break to Spain.

The city’s renowned architecture is heavily influenced by the creative maverick Antoni Gaudi who designed the quirky Park Guell and the striking La Sagrada Familia, the unfinished cathedral that is regarded as one of the most beautiful buildings in the world. The beating heart of Barcelona can be found on La Rambla, the kilometre-long street where you can shop to your hearts content or watch the world go by from one of the many street-side cafés.

No visit to Barcelona is complete without sampling its superb Catalan gastronomy which is available everywhere from Michelin-starred restaurants to backstreet tapas bars. In addition, Barcelona houses a popular city beach, whilst the Costa Brava and Costa Dorada offer outstanding resorts just a car ride away.
