Behind Mallorca’s (also known as Majorca) facade lies a tranquil and timeless landscape. Rising abruptly out of the island’s interior are the craggy outcrops of the Tramuntana Mountains (UNESCO site since 2011), over which birds of prey can often be seen soaring on the breeze. Following a network of established trails, we trek to some of the highest peaks and enjoy spectacular vistas to the Mediterranean. Elsewhere, we discover picturesque hamlets complete with mediaeval churches and pass terraced hillsides adorned with sun-kissed citrus trees. In contrast, our coastal walks will reveal sleepy fishing marinas, secret coves and pebble bays.

For the remaining three nights, we have a change of scenery as we stay in the beautiful Lluc Monastery. Although not a hotel, this historic 13th-century building is set amid tranquil countryside and offers excellent rooms, delicious food and free wifi.
