The Villa...
The villa “Es Vinyet� is situated just outside the beautiful town of Petra in central Mallorca. It is surrounded by agricultural land, growing oranges, lemons and grapes (should make for some inspired paintings). There are 7 comfortable bedrooms and 6 well appointed bathrooms as well as wi-fi, TV, extensive gardens with private swimming pool and terraces. The villa is a few km outside the town centre but as usual we have a mini-bus and driver at our disposal for the week so you can choose to eat at the villa or be taken into the town for evening meals. Get in touch if you would like a link to view further details of this villa at the HouseTrip website, or alternatively if you would like us to send you some printed details.
