click to view

Conveniently located very close to old town of Alcudia, the simple Muralla enjoys a peaceful position and wonderful views of the old walled town. Traditional in atmosphere, it is well appointed and spacious, with comfortable rooms furnished in archetypal Majorcan style. Externally, the property benefits from a pretty pool area to the side, which is elevated to accentuate the sweeping views over the surrounding fields.

Narrow terraces edge the pool and to the front of the house, there is a charming shaded terrace providing the perfect place to sit and dine alfresco whilst soaking up the scenery. To the rear, a spacious first floor terrace affords further, fabulous views towards the walled town and mountains behind. The front door from the main terrace opens into the homely, good-size sitting room, set around an ornamental fireplace and divided from the bright, simply equipped kitchen by a breakfast bar. A traditionally furnished dining room connects to a barbecue area, whilst upstairs, the two bedrooms are also finished in traditional style.

Although just a ten-minute walk from Alcudia centre, the Muralla makes a delightfully quiet base for guests wanting to be close to a town without being in the hub of the action. Although some faint traffic noise can be heard, it goes no way to intruding on a holiday here.
