Port d’Andratx, in the west of Mallorca

Greg Gladman/Apa Publications

Valldemosa, which lies just inland, is a magnet for tourists who come to visit the monastery of La Real Cartuja, built on top of a royal castle. In it, you can see exhibits relating to the novelist George Sand and her companion, Frédéric Chopin, who rented rooms here between 1838 and 1839.

The next stop is Deià, probably the island’s most attractive town, a pretty hilltop community built from honey-coloured stone. Something of an artists’ colony – Robert Graves, the English poet and novelist, author of I, Claudius, is buried in the cemetery – this is also a good base for visiting the Tramuntana region in the northwest. A favourite haunt of the independent traveller, there are few beaches here, but a spectacular – and hair-raising – road allows fantastic views.
