This beautiful Modernist building was designed by architect Lluís Domènech in 1901.

By successful textile merchant Joaquim Navàs and his wife, Josepa (Pepa) Blasco.

With a nearly unlimited budget, it is one of the most extraordinary Modernist houses in Reus and in Catalonia.

In 1938, the house was damaged by bombing during the Spanish Civil War.

The tower is now being reconstructed and is due to be ready in 2026.

Casa Navàs is still partly owned by a descendant of the original family.

The building opened to visitors just once a week in 2017, before becoming open throughout the year in 2018.

Today, you can visit with a guided tour in Catalan, Spanish or English.

The standard ticket costs €16, and the tour lasts over an hour. Booking is recommended.

Would you like to visit Casa Navàs?

People who have come here have really appreciated the calm, small-village life.

It doesn’t feel touristy, and you get to experience everyday Catalan life rather than staying somewhere designed mainly for tourists.

English isn’t widely spoken here, but don’t worry, you’ll have me to help you whenever you need it. 😊

We’re not right by the beach, but so far everyone has loved the mountains. They’re very different from the landscapes many of my guests are used to.

And getting inside a Catalan home, meeting the family and getting to know a little bit about the culture makes the holiday feel much more personal and memorable.

One of my long-awaited visits to Barcelona was the Hospital Sant Pau this summer.

This hospital was designed by Lluís Domènech i Montaner, one of the major architects of Catalan Modernisme.

Construction began in 1902. The first pavilion, started working in 1916. It continued operating here until 2009.

Today you can visit the hospital which was deliberately a combination of medicine + nature + art.

Here are the current entrance fees:

€18 before 14:00
€17 after 14:00
€ 21 guided
€ 4 audioguide

Ulldemolins is just 40 minutes from home.

Unfortunately, we didn’t have time to explore the village itself.

So we headed up to the village hermita and started our walk from the Montsant Natural Park.

Our aim was to do a small section of the 12-kilometre Montsant River hike, heading to the Cadolles Fondes.

The hike itself was easy, but in scorching heat, even an easy hike felt like enough for one day!

What temperature do you think is ideal for your holiday? ☀🌥️❄️

September is one of my favourite months, and temperatures are usually around 23–27°C. However, this September 2026 was hotter!

The first week was boiling, with temperatures reaching 35–39°C. 🔥💥We were actually in France that week, where it was a little cooler.

The second week was more tolerable, around 30°C. ☀

The third week was just perfect, around 24–28°C. 💗😊💗

And then the last week and this week have been a bit cooler, around 20–25°C, with some clouds, which has been so lovely.

I’m definitely more used to warm weather now than I was when I lived in the UK! 😅

A medieval old town, Peñíscola is over 700 years old.

It was built on a rocky peninsula, with its strategic position making it easy to defend and keep watch over the sea.

It’s small, with just 27 narrow streets, and there are hardly any cars, which is one of the reasons why I love it.

And of course, the houses look like they’ve come straight out of a fairytale. 🏘️✨

The old town has been a filming location for several movies and TV series, including the famous Game of Thrones.

For me, it’s definitely a place worth visiting.

Hermitas are worth visiting if you enjoy peaceful places in nature. You can have a picnic there or simply enjoy the tranquillity.

Just keep in mind that on bank holidays or during local festivals, they can be quite busy, which can be fun too!

Our Ermita de la Santíssima Trinitat was originally built in the 15th century and rebuilt in 1790 in the Baroque style.

Today it's a popular destination for walking, cycling, family outings, and celebration.

Roc de Sant Gaietà was built in the 1960s to look like an old Mediterranean village.

It combines Romanesque, Gothic, Andalusian, and medieval styles.

Modern concrete was shaped and painted to resemble old stone, while some doors, arches, and stone fragments were brought from different parts of Spain.

It’s incredibly photogenic, with its arches, courtyards, and charming squares.

I like to bring most of our food from home and plan my meals a bit in advance. I do use some ready-made foods as well to make things easier.

We usually camp for 2–4 nights, so this works well for us. If we stayed longer, I’d of course need to buy more food along the way.

Are you interested in camping at all?
