Scenic glass doors overlooking the pool create a light and bright interior as they lead into the open plan living area with flat-screen TV, WiFi, large dining table and separate, fully equipped kitchen. Exposed stone features, wooden beamed ceilings, wall-to-wall cool terracotta tiles and chunky wood furniture converge to emanate that traditional Mallorquin ambience, plus with three comfortably furnished bedrooms, each with en suite shower and independent air conditioning Villa Truc is an ideal holiday base from which to explore this diverse island.

Trees and hedges encompass the outside area, where a spacious covered terrace and delightful brick-built barbecue bring promise of warm summer evenings inspiring keen cooks in their culinary endeavours. During the day the pool becomes an obvious magnet, offering a cool and pleasant respite from the fervour of the midday sun.

Expediently positioned, a superb choice of restaurants to suit all tastes and pockets is close by in Pollença town (4km) and Port de Pollença (3km) the latter home to one of the island’s expansive sandy beaches that certainly merits some of your holiday attention.

Family-friendly Cala Sant Vicenç (7km) offers two appealing cove beaches and a further choice of excellent eateries while ramblers and cyclists have a large selection of both marked and unmarked trails to discover in the surrounding hills and countryside. Golfers can enjoy a round or two at Pollença’s very scenic nine-hole golf course which is just a 10 minute drive or at the (even more scenic!) 18 hole Alcanada course (20 minute drive). Each of these courses also has a recommended restaurant open to all (considered to be a ‘local secret’, Alcanada’s terraced restaurant has a notable reputation for the excellent quality and value of its ‘menu del dia’).

Great Things to Do Near Villa Truc

Snorkelling at Mal Pas

If you would like to do some snorkelling in clear, deep water, go towards Alcúdia, turn off towards the La Victoria headland until you reach Mal Pas. Beside a fish restaurant serving lobster (choose your own), there is an excellent area off the rocks for snorkelling.
 

Caves of Campanet

The beautiful Caves of Campanet, found by a shepherd about 100 years ago, are not too far away and worth a visit to see the fascinating stalagmite and stalactite formations. These caves are not too commercialised and visits are on the hour. For the most impressive caves, go to Portocristo on the east coast and visit the Caves of Drach which houses one of the largest underground lakes in Europe.
 

Nearby beaches

Cala Sant Vicenç and Port de Pollença are two lovely beaches in the north of the island which can be reached by car in just a few minutes. A little further afield is the renowned beach of Formentor.

Lluc is not just a monastery

Take the mountain road from Pollença to the Monastery at Lluc. Visit the museum and the chapel -  you may be fortunate enough to hear the Blauets Choir singing. Make your way to the huge cross behind the monastery for the fabulous views out to sea.
 

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.

Birdwatchers’ Paradise

Ornithologists will know about the birdwatching area at the Albufera and Albufereta, where you can see several different species of wading birds, amongst others, especially during the migrating season.
 

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.

Sóller and its Port by train

The old-fashioned train ride through the mountains from Palma (or Bunyola) to Sóller and back, including the tram to the Port of Sóller through the orange groves and back, and just sitting in the church square in Sóller enjoying a drink and watching the world go by.

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.

Paella on the beach

Spend a day at the beach between Ca'n Picafort and the area east of Alcúdia, at Ses Casetes des Capellans, where you can enjoy a tasty paella or seafood dishes at one of the beach restaurants while enjoying the sea and sun on a long and sandy beach.
 

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.

The only water park in the north of Mallorca

is Hidropark in Alcúdia.  Open 1st May to 30th October. www.hidroparkalcudia.com.

Explore the old town of Pollença

Stroll around the old town of Pollença. It's definitely worth making the effort to climb the 365 steps up to the Calvary church and browsing in the curious little shops before sitting down to relax with a drink and dinner in one of the many popular restaurants in the pedestrianised squares.

 

Old Roman town of Alcúdia

Tuesday market in Old Alcúdia is interesting and has a plentiful supply of locally grown fresh fruit and vegetables, then just stroll round the pedestrianised old Roman town where caper plants are growing out of the main massive thick stone walls surrounding the town. The local council offer a free guided tour around the historical centre of Alcúdia old town on Wednesdays and Fridays during the summer months.
 

Sunday morning market

The market in Pollença on Sunday morning is a colourful, bustling event where you can buy your locally grown fresh fruit and vegetables, as well as souvenirs and presents. Have a look inside the church while you are there as it is quite impressive.
