Fruit From The Orchard

Fruit From The Orchard: Balearic Islands

Often overshadowed by its rowdy neighbour, the Ibiza countryside boasts some of the more scenic and tranquil landscapes across the Balearic Islands. Swap vodka for wine, and surround yourself in citrus trees, vineyards, and olive groves. This traditional finca-style villa, with its natural white stone walls and a tangerine juniper-beamed roof, is wonderfully secluded from the noise of the town. You’ll be able to soak up the warm sunshine out on the sun terrace in peace and quiet. Cool off in the fresh saltwater pool, before an alfresco lunch under the gentle shade of the covered patio. Indoors, think terracotta-tiled flooring, exposed marble walls, and pine furniture across a home that includes two large living rooms. Sprawl out in the evenings, fire up the barbecue or wood oven, and break open a bottle of something bubbly. The clear turquoise waters of Talamanca Bay await, as well as Ibiza Town's surplus of restaurants and bars – both a short drive away.

Home truths:
*We'd recommend a car as this home for ease of getting around the island – two parking spaces are available at the home
*Free cleaning services are carried out every seven days
*This is a two-storey villa with quite a lot of stairs between spaces, so is unsuitable for guests with limited mobility
