Mallorca Farmhouses

Winter is a great time to discover Mallorca's beauty. With a mild climate and fewer tourists, visitors can enjoy this magical island at a more relaxed pace.

Explore its picturesque villages with narrow cobbled streets, walk along beautiful empty beaches, hike the dramatic Serra de Tramuntana mountains or shop for delicious local produce or Christmas gifts.

What's more, Mallorca Farmhouses offer a superb collection of luxury self-catering properties available throughout winter, whether for an authentic escape or a celebratory get-together for Christmas or New Year.

Mallorca Farmhouses' winter collection includes a range of luxury apartments, quaint cottages, traditional farmhouses and grand villas. Suitable for couples, families and groups of friends, all properties have central heating for the cooler evenings and are situated in the most desirable locations around the island.
