Simon was an absolutely fantastic host. From the moment we booked, communication was quick, clear, and incredibly helpful, which made the entire process seamless. The property itself was exactly as described—beautiful, clean, and very well maintained.The home was comfortable, thoughtfully set up, and had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. Parking was easy and felt very safe, which was a big plus.What really stood out was the attention to detail and the care Simon puts into making sure guests have a great experience. It truly felt like a hidden gem, and we couldn’t have asked for a better stay.Highly recommend staying here—we would absolutely come back again!
