Ancient Nectar Pollença, Balearic Islands

Holiday Rental Description

This rustic hideaway in the heart of Pollença puts the old-world streets immediately at your fingertips. While away your afternoons strolling down the honey-hued lanes and discovering the array of restaurants, boutique shops and historic landmarks around every turn. The main square is just a short walk away, but when you're in the mood for the sea and sand, Port de Pollença is only a few miles north.

Built with Mallorcan stone, this townhouse is cosy and contemporary all in one. Inside, modern design meets tradition – white-washed beams hang overhead, a sleek kitchen has everything you'll need to rustle up dinner and cream leather sofas invite you to kick back in style.

Outside, a pretty terraced garden calls for alfresco breakfasts before your adventures and evenings spent toasting your getaway with a glass of locally produced wine. The private pool is the perfect spot to cool off from the sun – as the palm trees sway and the blue skies stretch out above, dreamy days await.

Home truths:
*This home is set over two floors, and there are quite a few steps to navigate in the garden – it may not be a good option for those with limited mobility
*Downstairs has underfloor heating, while radiators will keep you warm on the first floor
*The shower pressure here is on the lower side
*If you need to work from home, the dining table doubles as a laptop-friendly workspace
*There's on-street parking right outside the home – we think you'll want a car if you plan to explore further afield
*The plunge pool isn't very big, but it's entirely yours to enjoy on sweltering afternoons
