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. There are two terraces and both are very private with stunning panoramas, including a full view of Puig Major, the highest mountain in Mallorca. The upper terrace features plenty of sunshine, 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 to meditate upon your life and the world as you unwind, listen to the gentle tinkling of sheep bells and watch the mountains of the Tramuntana range change from orange to red to purple as the sun slowly sets. Both terraces 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, depending on 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, sailing.
Travel
Palma de Mallorca is the nearest airport. Car hire is recommended and we can recommend the best local company.

We've stayed in many houses in Fornalutx but yours is the nicest. Private, peaceful yet within easy reach of everything we needed. The sound of tinkling sheep bells whilst dropping off to sleep is heavenly! We will definitely be booking again. Tim & Victoria
