#### Location
Villa Petal is nestled on the eastern coast of Menorca, in Es Mercadel.

Es Mercedes is a pretty, white-washed, tree-lined village with a historical centre and quaint streets. The village centre offers an abundance of pastry shops, restaurants and coffee bars. Cas Sucrer is perhaps the island's best known homemade cake shop.

Among other local industries, the village is known for its production of made to measure “abarcas” (local sandals). For a taste of history, the water well (Aljub) was built during the British occupation to store rainwater.

Overlooking the village is the rather imposing El Toro mountain, the highest point on the island. At its peak, there is a beautiful fourteenth-century square tower, a Franciscan church and sanctuary, and the best views of the island on a clear day, living up to its name as the balcony on the skies.

Further afield, the fishing village of Fornells is the island's main water sports centre. A sea outing to view the northern coastline with its hidden coves, sparkling crystal waters and beaches.

The village has an array of excellent seafood restaurants, and the “caldereta de langosta” (lobster stew) is a local speciality.

Menora offers and perfects and idyllic holiday destination, with beaches known for their pure sands and glistening, clear waters.

The gentle landscapes of the island are ideal for walking, cycling or riding, and it remains temperate when out of peak season.

Scattered with history, stone monuments are dating back thousands of years across the countryside, and an abundance of ancient coastal pathways. Visits to Megalithic sites are a history buff's dream.

Watersports potential is abundant, with kayak hire, private boat chartering or snorkelling and diving all very popular.

The Cami de Cavalls signposts are a series of signposted routes across rough tracks, paths across farmland, surfaced and intriguing unsurfaced pathways. “Hidden” Menorca can be discovered this way, and the roads are suitable for walkers, horses and mountain bikes.
