Some interesting weather but a fantastic villa just outside Pollenca away from the roads and quite isolated from the rest of the world it seemed...
The villa was lovely, at the end of a lane on its own and as a benefit at the other end of the lane sat a local vineyard selling a lovely (though expensive) wine. Turns out it was German owned and had won quite a few prestiges awards.
Soller was a very nice old town but it seems anything on the coast that is remotely popular has been ruined and turned into tourist hell! Some of the old towns are now nothing more than concrete blocks of cheap hotels, whilst I expected this in the South around Palma it was a shame to see the North of the island so badly affected as well.
We certainly enjoyed the pool
