We are a Canadian-Catalan family who lives in the UK but one of us works in Barcelona throughout the year. When we are not here for work, we come as a family for holidays to visit relatives and enjoy the city of Barcelona.

Descripción de nuestro barrio y la zona en que se encuentra
Our flat is in the Eixample Dreta district of Barcelona which was an urban design project of the late nineteenth century, away from the tourist areas but close to historic centre of Born. We are 15 minutes' walk to the beach and five minutes' walk to Born. We are less than a minute away from the Ciutadella Park which has an outdoor playground, rowing lake, and the Barcelona zoo. There is also an outdoor roof-top public swimming pool near the Park. There a number of restaurants and shops nearby including an excellent supermarket. In Born, there are all kinds of interesting shops and restaurants. You are close to a number of transport links -- the metro and train station of Arc de Triomf (two or one stops, respectively, to Placa Catalunya), tram lines, and the Estacio de Franca train station. It is a beautiful and friendly neighbourhood close to all that Barcelona can offer!

Dónde ir y qué hacer mientras se esté en nuestra casa
We are close to the Barcelona Zoo and sometimes you can hear the big cats at night! The Born Cultural Centre is a renovated 19th-century iron food market above an eighteenth-century archaeological site. There is a museum and restaurant inside. Born neighbourhood is full of wonderful shops and restaurants. The beautiful medieval church, Santa Maria del Mar, is at the centre of Born. From Born, you are another 10 minutes' walk to Placa Catalunya. We are also fifteen minutes' walk to the beach and on the way back there is a cinema, called Icaria, which shows films in the original version. We are very close to bus, tram, and train lines so you are able to get to most attractions in Barcelona as well as get to sites outside of Barcelona by train or bus.

We would love to find our flat clean and tidy when we return. If you don't feel like cleaning, we can ask someone to clean the flat after you leave for 50 Euros. It is important that you are as quiet as possible in the hall and staircase outside of the flat as the sound carries easily. There is a beautiful ironwork lift from1940s which has been completely modernised. However, the door mechanisms are quite delicate so you need to be careful when opening and closing the door. Our neighbours are very friendly and helpful.
