This is a typical Mallorcan townhouse in Pollença’s maze of narrow streets.The ideal Pollenca villa if you want to be right in the town.
Location
Casa Lleo is a lovely townhouse, full of character. It’s just a 3 minute walk from here to Pollença’s main square, and the beaches of Puerto Pollença are just a ten-minute drive away. Casa Lleo is not unfortunately easily accessible because of the several stepped levels in the gardens and terraces.
Layout
Inside
The house is full of character and has been restored in the tradition of Pollença’s Arabic past, where houses provided an escape from the noise and heat of street life. Casa Lleo is a peaceful three-storey retreat which has been restored in elegant traditional style with white walls, beamed ceilings and terracotta-tiled floors. It’s also fully air-conditioned so is cool even on the hottest summer day. It’s built next to the hillside near to the bottom of Pollença’s famous Calvari. On the ground floor of the house the lounge and dining room has satellite television and a dvd player and cd stereo. The bright and sunny kitchen has appliances including a dishwasher, an oven and ceramic hob, and a fridge-freezer. French doors open out from the kitchen onto the stone staircase that climbs through the different levels of terracing in the garden. There is also a cloakroom on the ground floor. The three air-conditioned bedrooms are on the first floor. There’s a double bedroom with an en-suite shower bathroom, and two twin bedrooms that share a bathroom with a bath and a shower.
Outside
The top floor of the house is taken up by the beautifully designed sun terrace and pool, which has sweeping views over the rooftops of houses in the old town. There’s a patio area here with seats and sun loungers, and a covered built-in barbecue area. The pool also has a waterfall and so this is an incredibly peaceful place to sit in the evenings listening to the sound of the water and looking down onto the town below. The many twists and turns of this secret garden are delightful.
