Notes on accommodation
The house was equipped for our own use and was in no way done just for holiday rentals! The furniture is either antique or brand new. The beds are all top quality and the sofa and other occasional furniture is from Harrods, John Lewis or OKA. The kitchen table and stools are from Ligne Roset.
There are original Mallorcan artworks and English and French antiques. The property is all painted white inside with a red theme to the decorations. The top main bedroom has an air-conditioning unit and the other rooms have ceiling fans. The sitting room has a wood burning stove for the winter. Logs provided. Unfortunately the property is not suitable for young children as the stairs are open at the side and very steep.

Guest comments
'We had a lovely holiday. The house is fantastic. Thank you so much'
‘Obviously I don't need to tell you how beautiful the house is, you surely know that already. Being veterans of quite a few rentals in Mallorca, Spain and France, I can honestly say that your house is one of the best we have come across. I think what sets it apart from most is the fact that you've made the house very comfortable and homely for renters, and provided all the creature comforts. And everything works; it's the first time I've come across a fully functional UK satellite TV installation’
"We both loved the house - just magical and I'm sure we will be back in touch to book again."
Subsequent comments:
"It is beautifully furnished and very well equipped, and extremely comfortable, and the town is a real gem.
"The house was totally amazing - we loved everything about it"
