Sant Mateu d’Albarca is a small village to the west of San Miguel. Built around a striking, white washed church. This hamlet is an alluring little place full of so much charm…

There’s just a few bars and restaurants in this rural location, and the area is known for its plentiful vineyards. The surrounding countryside also boasts fine crops of oranges, lemons and olives. In December each year you will find the San Mateo Wine festival. The whole town turns out to sample more than 30 local wines on offer, plus traditional treats of sobrasada cooked over an open fire. For the summertime enjoy Can Cires. The two-century old country house is now a fusion restaurant, using fresh, seasonal produce from the island. You feel like part of the family as soon as you enter the courtyard – A must visit!
