Sa Tanqueta is situated in the district of Selva, a quiet farming area at the foot of the Tramuntana mountains and is surrounded by groves of olive, almond and figtrees. There are also sheep,pigs and chickens in neighbouring fields.

At the front of the house is a quiet (tarmac) lane which leads to the main Inca-Selva road just over 2kms (1mile) away. The rear of the house (pictured above) looks over the fields to the Tramuntana Mountains and you can also see Selva, which is the nearest town.

Inca, famous for its traditional Mallorquin restaurants and the centre for leather goods, is less than 5 kms (3 miles) away. Inca also has several supermarkets, a weekly market and a good range of restaurants, cafes and shops - as well as all the services you might need (doctor, dentist etc)

Further afield, the beaches of Port d'Pollensa and Port d'Alcudia are about 20 minutes drive (or you could take the slower but prettier lanes).

The capital, Palma, is approximately 30 minutes drive and there is also a train from Inca to Palma every hour.The beautiful mountain region is just behind the house and the plain stretches out to the front. Peaceful and away from it all, Sa Tanqueta is the perfect base to explore Mallorca.
