Peter and Esperanza are excellent friendly hosts - remaining in email contact prior to our stay and escorting us up to the cabin once we arrived in Mallorca. The welcome at the cabin was perfect too, we were shown around the place and left with Esperanzas lovely home made marmalade, soap and olive oil. It was reassuring to know that if we had a problem we could reach them easily over the phone (we didn't need to though).

The cabin is as described - simple and beautiful, and is well equipped for hiding away from it all - plenty of storage space for food and enough pots, pans and crockery for a small army. The road to the cabin switchbacks up the olive terraces and is very narrow but well surfaced. After you've done it a couple of times it seems much easier!

The privacy is fantastic (we were scantily clad for the duration), being able to wander amongst the olive terraces and pick figs is a joy. Fornalutx is 20 minute walk down a stony track, 25 sweaty minutes back up again, it has a well stocked spar shop, bakery and numerous restaurants. One truly minor point is that there is sometimes a bit of road noise from the route out of Fornalutx which is on the hillside opposite the cabin - however, this is nitpicking and I think we only noticed it since we ourselves live in a remote place, and there was a fiesta on in the village, so more traffic than usual.

I recommend the cabin for those looking for privacy, nature, and escaping the crowds (but you can join them easily by popping into Soller on market day!).
