Wooden balconies and stone walls adorn this cosily converted school with wonderful views across the hillside, in the tranquil hamlet of Imada, 4km north of Alajeró. Done in restful neutral tones, the seven rooms have desks, private terraces and smart bathrooms with hairdryers; for the best panoramas, go for an upstairs room.
