The lush exterior of Can Fullos is indisputably what makes this country home so popular for outside living.
A flurry of tropical plants, grape vines, a lemon tree, wild herbs, palms, ferns and neatly trimmed hedges combine to create an attractive border encircling a lovingly tended lawn, well equipped summer kitchen complete with outside barbecue dining area and of course the tempting refreshing pool, providing a secluded oasis in which to relax.
Views across the surrounding meadow and dramatic skyline of the Puig de Maria further enhance the relaxed country atmosphere despite the handy proximity to old town Pollenca and with good run-around room for younger ones, a variety of terraces for breakfast in the sunshine or a snooze in the shade Can Fullos certainly ticks the boxes for a family holiday.
A stone clad façade lines the exterior forming a courtyard appearance, as the rustic character continues inside this charming rural home. Distributed over one level, spacious living areas furnished in traditional fabrics with local ceramics, glassware and the added bonus of air conditioning, link with a compact, well equipped kitchen and three cosy bedrooms also fitted with air conditioning. Doors leading from the lounge/dining area onto the sunny terrace, provide natural light and direct access to the pool area.
Located five minutes from old town Pollensa, the villa also sits roughly mid-point from both pretty Cala San Vicente and bustling Port de Pollenca, each just a fifteen-minute drive, offering a range of eateries huddled along their sandy bays.
- Air conditioning usage is on a timer (12 hours per day).

Nearby beaches

Early morning walk to the top
Just past the rooster roundabout on the road from Pollença to Palma on the left, is the start of the walk up to the top of Puig de Maria. It's best to go first thing in the morning wearing sensible shoes. Don't forget your camera and a bottle of water although there is a bar at the top. The views over the north coast are outstanding.
Go out in a boat
Boat trips from the local coves and ports can make a lovely day or half day out from Port de Pollença or Port d'Alcúdia going to Formentor or round the headlands.
Formentor beach and lighthouse
A scenic drive will take you to Formentor Lighthouse - the road is quite narrow in places. At the top of the hill out of Port de Pollença, it is worth stopping at the viewpoint to see El Colomer rock. Although the beach at Formentor is not very large, it has clear shallow water ideal for children and adults alike, with some good waters for snorkelling. Go early, with a picnic.
Fornalutx, Deià and Valldemossa
Drive over the Tramuntana mountain roads taking in the spectacular scenery, stopping at the various viewpoints including two lakes/reservoirs, and passing through several world-renowned towns like Deià and Valldemossa, home to famous painters, writers and musicians. Fornalutx is one of the prettiest towns in Mallorca.
Palma - Capital City
The capital of Mallorca is well worth a visit. The Cathedral, Almudaina Palace and Bellver Castle are very interesting historial buildings, then there are several contemporary art museums as well as plenty of shops. Catch the train from nearby Sa Pobla and avoid the hassle of parking.
Alfàbia gardens
If you enjoy gardens, these Moorish gardens, right at the entrance to the Sóller tunnel, are a must. They are cool on a hot day, with lots of water and wonderful trees and exotic plants to admire. A small bar serves fresh orange and lemon juice.
