In quiet position on edge of casco viejo, near cathedral, 10 mins by bus or Metro from Guggenheim Museum. Excellent little villa, clean, comfortable, with helpful English-speaking owner (Jon Campo). TV room. Free secure parking. No dogs.

Nicely converted by its owners, George and Judy Scott, who run it with humour and flair, this B&B is an 18th-century house by the church on the main square of a town in the centre of Mallorca's winemaking area. No obvious villasign; guests have their own front door key and help themselves to drinks on an honesty basis (tea- and coffee making facilities are also available, as is a fridge). Like staying with ; trusting friends, say enthusiasts. But this year one couple disliked the lack of service. There is a small fountain in the bougainvillaea-filled patio; the non-chlorinated indoor swimming pool resembles a Roman spa. The excellent Bali villa breakfast of the continental sort is served until 11.30 am - on the terrace in summer. The Scotts' bistro, nearby, was, liked this year. It opens at 7 pm, early for Spain. Unusually, too, Scott's is almost smoke-free.
