Flanked by the splendid Ayamans Palace and the ancient village church, charming Ca’s Comte sits on Lloseta’s picturesque main square. Steeped in history, the hotel’s building was originally part of the adjacent palace and was formerly a nobleman’s manor house. With such a heritage and position, Ca’s Comte has been carefully restored by the local Ramón family to preserve the original features and architecture of the 18th century.
The hotel’s front terrace enjoys the cobbled square’s surrounding splendour and architecture. This is a great spot to soak up the sun or to take in the village’s slow pace of life. For tranquil privacy away from the outside world there is a traditional inner courtyard dotted with tables and cream cushioned chairs. The pretty courtyard is surrounded by high stone walls and a grandiose curved staircase climbs up one side to the eight attractive bedrooms.
The building has a distinguished air, yet Ca’s Comte is a relaxed, friendly and comfortable place to stay. The beamed ceilings and stone walls are complimented by traditional Mallorcan antiques, dark wood and classic furnishings. The lounge offers a snug place to relax with sofas, antiquities and a wood burning fire. The dining room, serving fresh Mallorcan cuisine, is traditionally decorated with upholstered chairs and crisp linen topped tables. For a change, there are also a couple of decent restaurants in the village.
The new Spa added in 2006 is a real treat. Enjoy a relaxing Sauna and Jacuzzi, or lie back and be pampered by a selection of massages and beauty treatments.
4 double bedrooms 4 suites The eight individually furnished bedrooms all offer a mix of traditional furnishings and modern day comforts. Dark wood headboards and wardrobes are lightened by pale walls and delicately hand embroidered fabrics. For a touch of romance, some rooms have grand antique four poster beds. All rooms have individual heating and air conditioning, satellite TV, radio, telephone (with internet connection), minibar and safe. All bathrooms have a full-size bath, shower, hairdryer and bathrobes.
On reservation, directions will be sent to you. Situated on a picturesque square in the centre of Lloseta. The village is located about 30 minutes from Palma in the centre of the island beneath the Tramuntana mountains.
Walking/Hiking - This area is ideal if you enjoy walking or hiking. The Tramuntana mountain range is a hikers paradise and good local walks are detailed in the Sunflower Edition 'Landscapes of Mallorca' or 'Mallorca Mountains'.
Monastery of Lluc nestles high in the mountains. The monastery is Mallorca's most important place of pilgrimage and is popular with day trippers but an air of spiritual calm still manages to prevail.
There are a few traditional villages and towns such as Caimari, Moscari, Campanet and Selva in the vicinity with restaurants, bars and small markets.
A 20 minute drive away, Pollenca sits at the eastern end of the Tramuntana mountain range where the terrain turns into coastal flatland. This is an ancient town where a maze of pleasant narrow streets leads to a vast main square full of tasteful café and restaurant terraces.
