Finca Son Llado

Son Lladó is both holiday accommodation for visitors and a working farm of 28 acres, offering guests the comfort of their own apartment (accommodating from 2 to 7 people) in a location that fully justifies the term "agroturismo". The farm is run by the original owners who also personally take care of your stay.

The farm was built during the 17th century and continues to retain all the original charm and character of its period: stone walls, arched ceilings and a mix of internal decorations that provide it with an unmistakable style and identity. The reception, lounge, sitting room and dining room are located in the building that owner Pep charmingly refers to as "The Peasant's House", though really this is anything but peasant accommodation. Just outside there is a line of wood-burning ovens which are regularly used to prepare meals and barbecues by guests.

The five spacious apartments have been converted from the stable, granary and cow-house, and they are each designed to make the fullest use of the beautiful exposed stone walls and other old features. Each one has a dining room, kitchen, full bathroom and private terrace.The two bedroom apartments have two en-suites and therefore are just as suitable for two couples of friends as for a family. With such facilities, guests have the opportunity to self-cater, use all the restaurant facilities of the hotel, or follow any in-between path they may choose. They are well separated from each other to maximise privacy and tranquillity.

As well as being perfectly located close to the beaches of the south coast, the calas of the east coast and the lovely city of Palma, Son Lladó offer rural pleasures that few others can match. Children from 3 to 83 can enjoy visiting the small farm animals and taking horse, donkey or cart rides.

Even the comfort of guest's cars is well catered for, with covered parking in a place that was once the home of tractors and agricultural implements.

Son Llado is working hard to provide the guests' comfort in a sustainable and ecological manner. Waste materials are recycled, water is heated by solar panels (with enough heat left over in spring and autumn to extend the season of the swimming pool), and a rainwater collection and storage system provides sufficient supply for irrigation of the gardens and farm and washing of the terraces, animals, vehicles and so on.

Meals

During the summer, dinner and breakfast are served in an open-air covered terrace, next to the swimming pool. This has been restored from the old cow house and has splendid views on the gardens. Of course, being a real farm, Son Llado cooking is true home-cooking using all organic ingredients from their own vegetable gardens. The style is the most authentic Mediterranean Cuisine that you could possibly come across. Dinner is available just one day per week, but there are several restaurants only a few minutes away by car.
