Sunshine Overhead

Sunshine Overhead: Balearic Islands

With dreamy views of rolling hills, rustic yet sophisticated interiors and a tree-shaded terrace that is the perfect spot to sip glasses of wine at sundown, this restored finca has been brought up to the minute without compromising its traditional charm. Inside, it’s all exposed stone walls, oak ceiling beams and terracotta tiles. There’s a cosy living space for solitary moments with a gripping novel and an open-concept kitchen diner for lively suppertimes. Head through to the bedrooms and you’ll find sumptuous beds dressed in crisp, white sheets and slick en-suite bathrooms.

Spend unhurried afternoons in the garden – soak up the sunshine on a lounger or cool off with a gentle swim in the private pool. If exploring sounds like a good idea, jump in the car and drive over to Alcúdia Beach for a paddle in the warm Alcúdia Bay before enjoying a laid-back tapas lunch in a restaurant by the port.
