About the villa

Nestled in the hills behind the bays of Alcudia and Pollensa, with tranquil views to the Tramuntana Mountains, Ca'n Isabella is a lovingly restored Mallorcan finca set on a small private estate of some 20 acres, where spacious and uncluttered rooms are furnished in comfortable country style. A large living/dining room, with lots of windows and a log burning stove, the heart of the house, is complemented by a study/snug which can also serve as a play room, and opening out to a shaded dining veranda and soft seating area which overlook the gardens and have wonderful views down the valley. Steps lead down from here to a large twelve metre  swimming pool, gated within surrounding low stone walls, and with a furnished pergola on the paved poolside terrace. Upstairs, the four bedrooms are furnished in very attractive country style with use of distinctive local Mallorquin fabrics. Cleverly landscaped gardens, ablaze with summer colour, add to the sense of rural relaxation here, and cook service could make a more tangible contribution to leisurely days. To up the tempo, Alcudia is just 5km from the villa, with a popular beach, shops, restaurants and a Roman Theatre. The charming town of Pollensa with ample choice of restaurants and good shopping is within 8km,  and the 18 hole Golf Alcanada course is one of several good golf courses nearby.
