Near ‘the most Mallorcan town in Mallorca’ – sleepy Porreres – is this lovely old farmhouse. At the end of a small lane, the finca sits surrounded by ten peaceful acres of olive, fig and carob, a small bird-filled garden and a secluded pool. It has recently and stylishly been renovated by English owners, Martin and Annie. The set-up is B&B but what you get are five spacious apartments each with their own kitchen. All lie within the main house, with their own entrances; there are tiled and airy reception/sitting areas with sofas and a wood-burner and lovely wicker-furnished terraces for breakfast. Definitely for grown-ups, the overall feel is of a friendly and intimate hotel. The five apartments are bright, light and contemporary, with new wrought-iron beds, private sun terraces and art on white walls; pristine kitchens welcome you with a bottle of wine and olive oil. There’s a choice of restaurants in pretty Porreres, but if you fancy taking a picnic to the beach at Es Trenc 15 minutes away, your lovely, helpful hosts will provide a rucksack and a coolbox.
Set amidst olive groves and orange trees with an entrance drive flanked by mimosa trees - a peaceful haven that is within easy reach of anywhere on the island. If you appreciate fine white linens and beautiful design then you will love the attention to detail that each apartment has - neutral colours but with an accent of either rose, lavender, azur, azul or lemon depending which one you stay in - we had the opportunity to view them all and have stayed in Rosa and Azur. A wonderful continental breakfast - always a bowl of so many different prepared fruits, homemade jams, pastries etc. Perfect!
