Do you ever fantasize about a relaxing trip but then end up facing the reality of a crowded resort? If your ideal holiday is one where the only sound you hear out your window is a breeze through trees and maybe the sounds coming from birds you've never seen before, you might enjoy a getaway far from the big hotels and tourist hotspots. Reputable companies, such as Bartle Holidays, offer high quality accommodation in authentic villas across Menorca – an excellent place to experience authentic Mediterranean Spanish life. This article will explore this lovely island as a holiday destination, and some of the accommodation you're likely to find, provided by companies like Bartle Holidays. Menorca A sister to its larger (and busier) neighbour, Majorca, this gorgeous island is situated in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea, directly south of France and west of Sardinia. Because of its location it has been the central staging point of various cultures for millennia. This has allowed for an ecclectic interpretation of Mediterranean cuisine that has been influenced by its position on the trade route between North Africa and Europe. Although many people on the island have adopted modern lifestyles, most still enjoy the healthy and delicious local diet. As well as the food, the culture of the island has been influenced by its position in the centre of the Mediterranean Sea - with the architecture a blend of local Balearic aesthetic mixed with colonial styles. Many of the houses are built growing out of Roman remains or with an Arabic flavour, and visitors report being spell-bound by their timeless warmth. Escaping the Crowds The island is full of interesting villages and towns with bistros, cafes, and a scattering of museums, but if you've come to Menorca to get away from the hustle of city life you'll find it very accommodating. Away from the towns, the coastline is dotted with coves where you'll find quiet beaches meeting up with emerald waters. Moving inland, you can explore some of the island's valleys, from which you can access trails that will take you to vantage points with spectacular views of the green hills. Many people who are interested not in resorts, but in out of the way places where they can find peace and quiet, turn to companies like Bartle Holidays to organise appropriate accommodation. Villas as accommodation Though it might, at first, seem easier to book a holiday through a large resort's website, companies like Bartle Holidays make it easy to find unique and authentic villas available for rent, even from the comfort of your own living room in the UK. The villas are tried and tested and booking through a reputable site like this will negate any risk of turning up and getting quality and location less than expected (to put it mildly).
