The estate traces its roots back to the 1800s, but today Richard Branson's latest additions are up for rent as part of the Virgin Limited Edition collection of luxury retreats.

The newly opened villas, called Sa Punta De S’Aguila and Sa Terra Rotja, are nestled in lush grape vines and olive groves, bathed in the Mediterranean sun.

With heated pools and luxurious outdoor areas, the villas will allow guests to soak up the sun all day

Set by the base of a beautiful mountain range, the properties boast views out over the ocean and their lush rural surroundings.

Sa Punta De S’Aguila sits high up on the slopes of the Tramuntana mountain range, and features five en-suite bedrooms and a heated swimming pool.

The villas are classic 1800s properties, which are now on offer as part of Virgin's luxury holiday range

The stylish villa also comes with a luxurious kitchen and dining room, as well as a classy outdoor area.

But the Mallorcan sun doesn't come cheap, with a stay in Branson's newest luxury villa setting guests back €21,825 (£18,266) for seven nights of paradise.

The villas both boast plenty of charming outdoor space, so guests can maximise their time in the sun

The Virgin tycoon's second villa, Sa Terra Rotja, comes slightly cheaper, although a week's stay in the luxurious property will still set you back €17,460 (£14,613).

The four-bedroom villa also boasts a heated pool, and a sunkissed outdoor dining area, where guests can enjoy freshly-caught seafood and other local delicacies in style.

For the hefty rental cost, guests will be able to enjoy unlimited food and drink, as well as having housekeeping services and a concierge at their disposal.

Naturally, an array of local dishes are on offer, but the chefs can rustle up menus catered to your tastes - and all you have to do is ask.

Unlimited drinks are included in the price, and both villas come with heated pools to drink them by
