Our week at Hawkhill cottage was really enjoyable. Sofia and Theo are great hosts: very generous and hospitable. They have a knack of making you feel welcome and cared for without intruding.

They provided us with some essentials when we arrived and some lovely local produce and gave us tips on where to visit. The place was spotlessly clean and there was plenty of bed linen and towels. We enjoyed sitting on the verandah looking out at the view of distant hills in this quiet spot. It all contributed to a relaxed and happy holiday.

The cottage is outside a small village well away from any of the tourist areas. It's a good base for travelling round the west of the island if you hire a car.
