Spain: The Monocle Handbook is a guide to the magazine's favourite places to stay, eat, shop and visit across Spain.
Following the launch of the first guide (Portugal) in its series of its country-specific books, this practical guide will steer you from the streets of Seville to the mountains of Mallorca, introducing trusted places to stay, eat, shop and visit across Spain.
Monocle says, 'Discover the sleekest beachside boltholes in the Costa Brava, the family-run restaurants plating up the tastiest tapas in Andalucía and the buzziest bars in Barcelona before getting your cultural fix in Valencia, Bilbao or Madrid. You’ll meet the Spaniards making waves in the fashion industry, visit the artisans turning out beautiful contemporary designs and hear from the chefs shaking up the country’s food scene. And of course you’ll find out the finest stretches of sand on which to lay down your towel.'
For those looking to put down roots in Spain, the book also profiles the cities, towns and neighbourhoods it considers are worth investing in, the architects and designers to commission and even some interior design inspiration for apartment or holiday homes. So, whether you are putting together an itinerary for a sun-soaked weekend or planning to stay a little longer, Spain: The Monocle Handbook makes the perfect companion.
