The Knight's Rest Pollença, Balearic Islands

Holiday Rental Description

Tucked down one of Pollensa’s atmospheric old streets, this villa is a real find – a spot with a private swimming pool right in the centre of town. A two-minute walk sees you at the bars and pavement restaurants of the market square. It’s a medley of old world and modernism inside with a cosy, wood-beamed living room and sleek kitchen. Outside, the summer kitchen is pure rusticana for poolside lunches. Heading up to the rooftop terrace for views of Mallorca’s Tramuntana Mountains is particularly spectacular at sunset as the sky glows purple above the ramshackle roofs.

Home truths:
*All of the bedrooms are up a wrought-iron staircase, so this place may not be suitable for those with limited mobility
*Your host can provide a complimentary cot and high chair – this must be requested at the time of bo
*Having a car is not necessary as shops and restaurants are on your doorstep, but there is on-street parking if you wish to hire a car
*Though a rarity in the centre of town, the swimming pool is quite small
*Though there isn't a dedicated desk here, the dining table doubles up as a laptop-friendly workspace
*You'll have your own private entrance here
