Outside
The cottage is set in 4 acres of its own rugged land with olive terraces, fruit and almond trees and small pine forests and leads directly to the torrenta (river) at the bottom of the land. It also has two terraces at the house. Both these terraces are very private with stunning panoramas, including a full view of Puig Major, the highest mountain in Mallorca. The upper terrace features lots of potted plants, a shaded dining area (which leads directly from the kitchen) a hammock, Weber BBQ, table, chairs, outside shower (perfect for cooling off on long, hot summer days!) The views from here are truly spectacular. It really is the perfect spot for listening to the gentle tinkling of sheep bells whilst meditating upon life and the world as you unwind and watch the mountains turn from orange to red to purple as the sun slowly sets upon the Tramuntana range. Both terraces also have small safety fences for child safety. The lower terrace is more rustic, rugged and shaded with trees.
Coast/Beach
There are several choices when it comes to accessible beaches. It all depends upon your preferences. The picturesque fishing village of Port de Soller is approximately 5km (15 minute drive) from Fornalutx and features two sandy beaches at either end of its wonderful circular bay. The Repic is the quieter of the two but both beaches are close to delicious cafes, restaurants and bars plus plenty of shops selling local produce. There are plenty of activities available too including windsurfing etc
