What staying here is like
- Food and wine travellers can explore a municipality within the Binissalem DO, where vineyards and wineries are part of the local landscape.
- It suits walkers and cyclists who want quiet rural routes: Visit Consell publishes circular, vineyard and heritage itineraries for the municipality.
- Families can use the village services, the Thursday market in Plaça Major and the Sunday Mercat dels Encants, which has a large car park.
