Family hotels and homes in Hutts Gate

This felt like a ‘home away from home’ with everything we needed. The location is tucked up on the hill and was an ideal base for our daily hikes all over the island. We appreciated all the small touches that made us feel welcome, including the scrabble board we availed ourselves of in the evening, as we sipped unique, locally sourced artisanal gin. It helped the aching muscles after conquering ‘Jacobs Ladder’. We’ve never met such friendly but unobtrusive people anywhere, starting with the taxi driver, Colin, who the owner arranged to pick us up at the airport. He kindly took us to a supermarket to pick up supplies and orientated us to the island. Matt at the tourist information centre in town was great to talk to - would suggest going there early in the week to see the open hours of the main attractions over the coming week, so you don’t miss anything. A visit to the nearby Plantation House to see Jonathan the oldest living land creature in the world, is a must! The home is also close to the Lemon tree valley post box walk.

The superb hospitality provided by our hosts Linda and Derek.

Very clean and beautiful, small hotel in the heart of Jamestown (Well, it's not so big town, but anyway) Nice room and especially shower is special good. Hotels's restaurant is best in town and sometimes it was also only open as well (on July at Sunday) Special thing, I have travelled quite a lot, but I have NEVER met so warm, caring, helpfull and nice staff than in Mantis! Absolutely great!

Beautiful location, very friendly and helpful owners
