Since Love Island hit our screens on 5 June, flight searches to Mallorca have risen by almost a third (according to booking site kiwi.com), with fans of the show seeking a similarly sun-drenched escape. But there's so much more to the island than a villa full of singletons; side-step Magaluf's strip and you'll find an island of Unesco-listed mountains, secret coves and golden hilltop villages.

The bohemian retreat: Deià
Honey-coloured, hilltop Deià has long attracted artists, musicians and literary sorts, including the poet Robert Graves, who is buried beneath a cypress-tree in the churchyard here. He found comfort in this place where “perfect tranquillity reigns”, having been injured in the Battle of the Somme – and it’s no less inviting a refuge today. His house is now a museum (lacasaderobertgraves.org).
