An amazing holiday as always and we loved the views and v close proximity the beach. Phil is always really welcoming on arrival and lets us know what is going on during the week of our stay on the island. We have already booked next years holiday at Flackstead, making this our 5th visit as we live it there so much. I would like to take this opportunity to formally thank Phil and his family for creating such an amazing holiday cottage and one that we do call our home from home. ...

Flackstead is such a beautiful place to stay - the views & location are second to none. Our first time staying here & not surprisingly the visitor book is full of people who return regularly. If you love the west of the island, as we do, you'd be hard pressed to find a better place. Everything exactly as described & the owner very friendly & knowledgable about things to do & places to eat. This place is an absolute gem....
