Can Mayol is a traditionally built and beautifully furnished two bedroom (plus loft suite) Finca set amongst a pretty garden of citrus fruits, palms, olives and vines. Beautifully sited in the peaceful hillside of the village, yet only a 2/3 minute walk down to the plaza for a hive of activity when you want it with its church, bars, restaurants, shops and supermarket. It has amazing views across the Valley and Tramuntana Mountains, waking you only to the sound of the neighbouring wildlife. The Finca enjoys a large private and secluded saltwater swimming pool. The internal layout is spacious and bright, beautifully decorated with exposed beams throughout and rooms are well proportioned with excellent living space. This is a fantastic area for walking or just relaxing whilst enjoying the marvellous views and local hospitality. The two beaches at Port de Soller are a 6-10 minute drive. Both the Port and the town of Soller also offer more restaurants and bars, shopping and activities.

Notes on accommodation
We truly want your visit to Fornalutx to be memorable and will endeavour to make your stay at Can Mayol as comfortable as possible. Please let us know if you have any special requirements.
In the interest of other guests and their children, please note this is a strictly non smoking house.
In view of the location of the Finca, age and hillside terrain with many different levels/areas to the garden and house, we suggest it is not appropriate for active toddlers.
All rooms are beautifully furnished and compliment the natural finishes and exposed beams.
During the winter months logs for the wood burning fireplaces are provided and delivered in bulk for your arrival, charged to you at cost. This supplements the perimeter heating.
Accessibility
Access Routes: Can Mayol can be accessed from the plaza below Plaza/Sq through a cluster of local houses clad with bouganvillea, and the church. It takes 4 mins to walk up to the house and 2 mins back down to the Plaza/Square. Alternatively steps lead down from the road/car bays above. Also a small track from the village parking area below leads to within 60 metres of the Finca, with just shallow steps to climb. 3 pay and display car parks are in the village and often random free spaces above.
Outside
Terraced gardens with hammocks for lazy days, and an abundance of citrus fruit in season for freshly squeezed breakfast juice! Tiny but characteristic vineyard and mature olive trees upon dry-stone walled terraces. Many patios/dining terraces clad with bougainvillea, wisteria and honeysuckle. A private terrace and secluded decked balcony lead off two of the bedrooms. A large (approx 23ft x 15ft) secluded and private use salt water swimming pool with fantastic views from the water over the mountains. The pool area has its own dining terrace and sunlounging area in complete privacy and enjoys the sun from dawn to dusk. Barbeque and ample seating.

Many other beaches are scattered around the island.

Guest comments
A truly rustic and beautiful country home in the mountains, yet so close to the hive of activity of the village when you want it! The children have loved the pool and the neighbouring goats with the bells, and the huge gardens have really tired them out thank goodness. This is a true hidden gem where sipping wine on the terrace watching the sun set seems paradise.
Wow what a beautiful area this is, we have had a wonderful 2 weeks exploring Fornalutx and the surrounding areas and mountains. Lots of swimming, beach and walking but most of all enjoying your beautiful house where we have really felt at home - can't wait to return next year. The Brookers July 07
Thank you for sharing your wonderful home with us - it is so beautiful here waking to the birds, fresh orange juice and hot croissants from the bakers and sleeping to the wonderful sound of cicadas and frogs. Whilst not sleeping, we've had a fantastic time being lazy in the garden and pool!
