Sleeps 8 (4 Double Bedrooms)
|
|
With views over mountains declared a World Heritage Site in 2011, this lovely villa is 10 minutes walk from the historic and beautiful Valldemossa and just 9 km from Deia. The villa has its own private swimming pool in large, well-kept mature gardens with palm trees and enough sunbeds for the whole family. Enjoy a BBQ and eat on the covered terrace, with produce from the local Sunday market. Villa Valldemossa is a wonderfully relaxing place to stay with family or friends, with grounds which encourage you to enjoy Mallorcan sunshine. Easy strolls into the village for freshly baked bread, local cheeses and wine, or perhaps a cooling dawdle around one of the art exhibitions. Chopin described Valldemossa as 'the most beautiful place in the world'. The 14th century frescoed monastery where he lived is open to the public. The local restaurants will tempt you with a variety of food to suit all tastes and budgets and Deia's Michelin Star restaurants are just the icing on the cake.

Notes on accommodation
The villa is spacious and comfortable, decorated in neutral tones. The north-west coast is popular for walking and cycling. There is an outside table tennis table and badminton in the garden. A built-in barbecue can be found within the extensive grounds. A large rustic field adjoins (and belongs to) the property. If the fruit is in season, please help yourselves. There's a juicer in the kitchen for our oranges and lemons. The driveway is lined with orange trees and has enough room for the parking of 4 cars.
Accessibility
A fabulous villa for sharing with family and friends. There is a travel cot stored in the large wardrobe (bed 2) and 2 high chairs in the 2nd kitchen in the basement. We urge full supervision of young children around the pool. There are some steps up to the two main entrances to the villa so it is not currently suitable for wheelchairs.
Outside
The villa's private pool is 9 x 4.5m with Roman steps at one end. The large terrace includes a covered area with table and chairs for alfresco dining. There are 8 beautifully comfortable hotel standard sun loungers. A full sized outdoor table tennis table and garden badminton are fun. The barbecue is built-in, not far from our own wood stores should you need extra fuel.
Coast/Beach
6km to Port de Valldemossa - a tiny fishing port but good for swimming and the fish restaurant. 9km to Deia beach/cove. 25 mins drive to Port de Soller with it's large sandy beach, pedalos & boat trips. There are some fantastic walks with coastal views.
Golf
The villa is under 15 mins from Son Termens golf course, ranked amongst the most ecological in Europe. Also within half an hour's drive of 5 other courses.
Special interest holidays
Walking and cycling are popular pursuits here. Walking routes are described in our Walking in Mallorca book found on our bookshelves in the villa. Music lovers may like to time their visit with the annual Chopin festival. Regular recitals through the long season this part of the Island enjoys, take place at venues like the home of Archduke Louis Salvador, who claimed to be the best lover of the Tramuntana Mountains. Walking in early spring and over the easter period is particularly popular, asthis is when Mallorca's almond trees are in blossom.
Travel
Villa Valldemossa is 25 minutes drive from Palma airport. We recommend car hire, although a regular bus services runs between Palma and Valldemossa and also along the coast to Deia and Soller.
Distances
10 minutes walk to the centre of Valldemossa. 6km Port de Valldemossa. 9km Deia. 20km Soller. Trains from Soller to Palma 7 trams to Port de Soller. 25km Palma, serious shopping, cathedral, port, old town. An easy way to visit Palma is to take the new Metro train from the nearby UIB University this is ten minutes drive from the Villa, parking here is free and the train fare to Palma less than a euro.
Further details
You'll find our home-made restaurant guide in the villa. From good pizzas and pastas & salads at our nearest restaurant Vesubio, to Michelin Star choices in Deia the 'gastronomic capital of the med', there's something for everyone. From rustic Mallorcan at C'an Costa to the elegant Hotel Valldemossa restaurant. If you're cooking, the local mini supermercado in the village is 10 minutes walk away. The corner bakery bakes fresh every day. A Sunday market in the centre of Valldemossa is good for local cheeses, olives etc. The large Carrefore on the outskirts of Palma is 20 minutes by car - fantastic fresh fish counter. Music lovers may like to time their visit with the annual Chopin festival. Regular recitals through the long season this part of the Island enjoys, take place at venues like the home of Archduke Louis Salvador, who claimed to be the best lover of the Tramutana Mountains. The house, perched on the dramatic coastline between Valldemossa and Deia is now open to the public. The light and breath-taking views have long attracted artists to Valldemossa. Exhibitions are small but frequent. A stone's throw from coffee in the old square. As stated walking and cycling are both popular pursuits, those who appreciate the great outdoors are drawn by the stunning scenery on Mallorca's unspoilt north-west coast, the dramatic mountain range and of course the sea.

Owner profile
About the owner
Our beautiful villa is owned by a UK family of five and it is shared with our friends and paying guests. It is treated as a family home and our clients have been very happy to stay here. Our feedback is always welcoming and positive. We have our own manager who visits daily and he is extremely helpful to all of our clients. He lives locally in the village and is therefore only minutes away from the house. As a family we holiday at the villa at least 3 times a year and never fail to relax and soak up the wonderful surroundings. The children enjoy it as do the adults.We are very happy to share what we have, which in turn, helps us to maintain the property to a reasonably high standard.
Year purchased: 2002
Why the owner chose a home in this location
We had holidayed in Valldemossa every year for the past 12 years or so and just adored the scenery, the local people, the history, the mountains (we love walking), the restaurants (varied to suit every pocket), the ports, the buildings and the views!! You can have the best of both worlds in Valldemossa, which is why it is a favourite of local neighbours like Andrew Lloyd-Webber, to mention but one. You are a stroll away from the village which has a unique atmosphere and you can stroll away again to the hidden gem just down the road, which is Villa Valldemossa. The very strict building regulations in Valldemossa help to keep the area free from intensive construction and overbuilding. It is simply a wonderful place to spend time.
Unique benefits of the property
The property is convenient for the village, the local port and excellent public transport links to other parts of the island if you choose not to rent a car. The property is of a solid construction, built by the previous owner to exacting standards. It is very generously proportioned and has extensive grounds all around the property. With its own huge driveway, you can close the gates behind you and be totally relaxed and removed from the world outside. It has always been a family home and it is maintained year round.
