*** Featured in Sunday Times "Europe's 50 Best Villas" *** Villa Pascaul is a 250 years old, beautifully refurbished country house. The owners, whilst metamorphosing the Finca into a comfortable holiday home, have retained the stone walls, many original features and artefacts and along with these, all of its character and charm.

The spacious and modern kitchen, next to the dining area, is totally equipped with a large fridge/freezer, electric oven, gas hob and a dishwasher.

All bedrooms have fitted wardrobes, romantic sloping ceilings and windows overlooking the spectacular mountains all around.

Stone steps lead from the natural mountain garden to a terrace where paved sun terraces surround a natural, spring fed, swimming pool. The peace is total, interrupted only by birds song and sheep bells and, occasionally after heavy rainfall, the sound of a gushing waterfall spilling down from the mountains can be heard.

Pollenca, Mallorca (Majorca) El Pont Roma, the roman bridge on the edge of the town is living evidence of Pollencas Roman origins and subsequently each generation has left its mark without overwhelming this delightful small town. In this way, Pollenca has learned to accept and adapt to tourism without losing its soul and where, these days, at the vibrant Sunday morning market spilling out over the Placa Major, locals and tourists alike mingle between the wide varieties of stalls. Wandering through the narrow cobbled streets you will find many lovely old churches plus numerous small art galleries and handicraft shops. A pause for coffee and a pastry is recommended before climbing the tree lined Calvari steps - there are 365 of them, one for every day of the year - amply rewarded at the summit by panoramic views across to the northernmost tip of the island from the Calvari church! If you are here during Easter, then you will be lucky enough to witness the moving procession on Good Friday, when a figure of Christ is removed from a cross and carried down the steps by torchlight. The months of August and September have much to offer music lovers as Pollenca hosts its annual classical music festival with many concerts and at any time of year, bon viveurs will find a number of outstanding restaurants as well as small tapas bars tucked away behind the impressive central square. Outside the town the rolling countryside is excellent for walkers and for a day by the sea, Puerto Pollenca with its lovely beaches, is only a 5-minute drive away. Nearby there's a good but hilly 9-hole golf course. Vall de Pollenca, Mallorca The old road, through the beautiful Vall de Pollenca winds some 6 miles between the Pollenca Hills and the towering Tramuntana Mountains, connecting Campanet to the picturesque Old Town of Pollenca. These days the road, now surpassed by the faster motorway, is used more by cyclist than vehicular traffic. Singled out for its beauty by the rich and famous the hillsides are discreetly scattered with rambling top notch villas, amongst which our Villas are tucked away enjoying this unsurpassed location from their more modest accommodation. The village of Campanet, situated on the edge of the green and wooded foothills of the Tramuntana Mountains, one claim to fame is its amazing limestone caves, said to house the longest stalactite in the world! It also makes a good starting point for an exhilarating drive to the mountain top Monastry at Lluc via the picturesque village of Caimari. Amongst the village's narrow streets are no less than three bakeries, as well as a well-stocked supermarket and a delicatessen. The sunny church square has a number of simple bars and small shops and it's a pleasant spot to linger over a morning coffee and sugary ensaimada before heading off for the day. There are also two or three bars that serve authentic tapas or simple meals, but the village has surprisingly remained a peaceful backwater, virtually untouched by tourism.
