Villa La Roca - Son Bou, Menorca, Balearic Islands

Ideal for a large family or group, this delightful villa is situated in a select and well-established residential estate in the hills above Son Bou. What makes it special is its well-tended gardens which are adorned with beautiful, mature trees that give it a wonderful sense of sheltered seclusion.

Traditional in design, the villa has been recently refurbished in a thoughtful style, creating a fresh and welcoming interior which is accompanied by tasteful furnishings and a practical layout. The two-storey accommodation is substantial with four twin bedrooms and two bathrooms affording plenty of space for eight people.

The grounds of the villa make an ideal spot for enjoying the simple pleasures of the sunshine and tranquillity, which is usually only broken by the sound of birdsong from the trees. Circled by pines and leafy shrubbery, a lovely sun terrace frames the house and the pool, where it is tempting to spend all day just taking it easy. A seating area beneath one of the trees provides a shady spot for al-fresco meals and the lovely pool provides further respite when the sun gets too hot.

The nearby resort centre offers shops and restaurants, and Son Bou beach can be reached by car within five or ten minutes.
