5Tour of farm
Very interesting tour of a local traditional cheese farm with fantastic products. You get to see the production site and animals - and the farm cats come as a bonus. Friendly guide. A little trip over small roads , but otherwise easy to reach. Would recommend for a visit.
5We had a great time...
We had a great time learning about the cheese making process from start to finish. You can tell this family loves the family business and takes great pride in their cheese. All of the cheeses we tried were excellent and we wish we could have brought more home.
5Remote but very authentic and interesting.
It takes some time navigating small country roads but the farm is the real deal, a family venture has for generations produced wonderful cheeses. Very friendly and informative.
5The place is very remote....
The place is very remote. Difficult to find. However, The staff (Mary and family) are wonderful. She goes out of her way to explain the farm and answer every question. The tour is not that long because its a small farm. However, the cheee is exquisite!! I enjoyed it and highly recommend it to others.

About Menorca
Menorca is the quieter Balearic island, with coves of clear water, prehistoric stone monuments, two old harbour towns and a coastal path all round.
Menorca is the second largest of the Balearic Islands, a low, green island and a UNESCO biosphere reserve, where stone walls divide the fields and white farmhouses stand in the countryside. The capital, Maó, overlooks one of the longest natural harbours in the Mediterranean, and its Georgian-style houses recall British rule in the eighteenth century. Ciutadella, the old capital on the west coast, has a Gothic cathedral, a small harbour and palaces around the Plaça des Born.
Top-ranked sights in Menorca: Cala Macarella, Cala Mitjana, Maó (Mahón).
