Wake up to the scent of the blooms that clamber around this beautiful yellow-shuttered home and take a moment. This is what holidays are all about. This little slice of heaven is just outside of bustling Manacor but feels tranquil enough to be on its own private island. Acres of lush land spill out towards breath-taking views of distant mountains, and vibrant gardens are littered with brightly coloured flowers and plants. Spend your morning by the pool, hopping in for a dip to cool off every now and then. The poolside lawn means there’s plenty of room for fun and games, so any children – and big kids – in your party have space to play. At lunchtime serve local sobrassada on thick slices of rustic bread, and drizzle it in honey. Choose a spot on the terrace amid the flowers, or head to the shade if you need a break from the Mallorcan sun – there’s a lovely cushioned seating area that offers some truly magnificent views. If you find yourself in need of a slightly faster pace, drive seven minutes to Manacor. There you can admire the stunning church or sip coffee between shops. Visit on a Monday for one of the most popular markets in Mallorca – get there early to nab the best supplies for a barbecue back at the villa. If soft white sand and crystal clear waters are too tempting to resist, you’re in luck. The closest beach can be reached in less than twenty minutes, so after a day of building sandcastles you can make it back to the villa for sunset – with views like these, it’s not to be missed.
