Bursting with culture, including the famous architecture of Gaudí and the works of Joan Miró, this verdant region is equally rich in natural and culinary treasures to excite your senses and leave a lasting impression on your memory.
Beyond the obvious charms of its capital city, Catalonia boasts the fascinating historic cities of Girona and Tarragona, as well as the friendly coastal town of Sitges and the surrounding countryside. When these cultural and natural delights are combined with the famed Mediterranean climate, Catalonia leaves visitors wanting for nothing.
However, it is in the inland that we find some of the region's most authentic charm. These pretty medieaval villages and unspoiled rural landscapes are home to the soul of Catalonia, not to mention a staggeringly rich architectural and cultural legacy, and represent a must for anyone who really wants to get to the heart of this fabulous region.
Spain is one of the most popular holiday destinations in the world, second only to France.
With a rich cultural legacy that continues to capture the imaginations and hearts of travellers the world over, and a friendly public happy to receive guests to their country, there is little wonder it features so heavily on so many people's bucket lists. Perfect weather, mouth-watering Mediterranean cuisine, cultural giants in the fields of literature, art, music and film, a rich history and an architectural legacy to match, the south European country can also lay claim to possessing some of the most enchanting countryside in Europe.
Never is this more apparent than in Catalonia, where the golden sands of the fabled coastline meet the green hills inland, eventually extending to the slopes of the Pyrenees mountains. Scattered along the way, waiting to be explored are rolling hills and eye-catching mountains, such as Montserrat and La Mola close to Barcelona and La Garrotxa near Girona, the lush splendour of the Montseny nature reserve, gushing waterfalls, lakes and gorges, and charming mediaeval villages tucked away in the valleys and mountains that make up this gorgeous region.
As the coastline snakes towards the border with France we can find hidden among its rugged coves and pine trees, delightful little villages, such as Begur, Blanes and Palafrugell, as well as the achingly beautiful peninsula of Cadaques.
Throughout the region, hiking opportunities abound, as well as trips to vineyards to sample the finest in Catalan wines, and even the opportunity to take a hot-air balloon ride over the Costa Brava - a once in a life time experience for anyone looking to rent a luxury property in Catalonia.
