The Red Shoes Manacor, Balearic Islands

Holiday Rental Description

Revel in the peace and solitude of the Mallorcan countryside when you stay at this stylish home, which was once a farmhouse. This villa really intrigued us with its unusual mix of red render and warm exposed stone. Relax on the daybeds by the beautiful pool, which has been converted from an ancient reservoir. Surrounded by manicured gardens and mature trees – take in the views of the mountains and truly unwind.

We love so much about this place, but the enclosed courtyard garden draped with sheer black fabric and dotted with lush plants is magical – take a seat on the Acapulco-style chairs with a glass of wine. Then there's the huge living room which is something else. Here, you'll find luxurious leather sofas, a modern fireplace and a wall lined with books – it's perfect for some "me" time. This house is ideal for a family or group of friends as there's plenty of space to spread out, and two bedrooms can only be accessed from outside, giving them added privacy.

Although located in a quiet countryside setting, this home is just a short distance from the town of Manacor. It's the second largest town in Mallorca, so you'll find plenty of shops and a bustling market. There's also a golf course and some of the best beaches on the island, such as Son Serra, a short drive away.
