For many French holiday-makers, Spain means the heavily developed resorts of the Costa del Sol, but there are also direct flights to the buzzing capital of Madrid, as well as delectable Seville, with its dazzling Moorish architecture and tapas culture. Low-cost flights have made Barcelona a deservedly popular city-break spot with those in the know. Explore Gaudi’s creations and the Gothic quarter, sample the shopping, Catalan cuisine and the nightlife, and you’ll have more than enough for a long weekend.
