There’s more to Mallorca than meets the eye!

21st May 2007 Print
Mallorca Farmhouses A country that is rich in culture and with a dynamic arts and music scene, Mallorca may not be the first destination that comes to mind, however there is so much more to this Balearic Island than blue skies, beautiful beaches and the sparkling Mediterranean Sea. Luxury villa accommodation experts, Mallorca Farmhouses are keen to point out the alternative side to Mallorca.

For culture vultures, the capital city of Palma has undergone a huge facelift with its fine historic buildings and monuments being carefully restored to their former glory. Enjoy meandering through Palma’s old town with its cobbled streets and stunning Gothic architecture or visit one of the many art galleries or music cafes.

A vibrant arts scene has also started to emerge. Palma is now home to over 30 independent art galleries and is said to have more galleries per capita than any other European city. Exhibitions are being arranged for both known and up and coming artists almost on a weekly basis.

Jazz lovers will enjoy a season of concerts and festivals throughout the year with international names such as the highly acclaimed San Francisco Jazz Collective with Joe Lovano and Dave Douglas and the great jazz pianist and composer and Grammy Award winner, Chick Corea to name but a few! In August, the International Sa Pobla Jazz Festival will present a range of free jazz concerts in the town’s main square, whilst in September, the Alcudia Jazz Festival offers an array of musical events and performances.

Visiting Mallorca has never been easier with many of the low-cost airlines flying daily into Palma. Mallorca Farmhouses offers a vast range of accommodation with something to suit every taste from beachside apartments to modern villas and rustic farmhouses with prices starting from £295 per week. All properties offer a private swimming pool and include maid service, a luxury hamper and complimentary car hire with air conditioning and fully comprehensive insurance.
