Lovely Garden Studio

This was a lovely garden studio. Lovely glass windows looking out at the garden. The hosts have decorated the studio in a nice peaceful way. The bed was very comfortable. Joanna and Paul also had milk, tea, coffee, etc, available on arrival which was so welcome. The instruction book they had prepared was very useful and easy to understand. It was an easy walk to the bus stop to get into the city center. I would certainly recommend the studio.

Perfect for our needs

We had a lovely stay at this great little home away from home. A good size apartment, nice decor, balcony and the perfect location for us to visit friends close by. Easy walk into town and a stone’s throw from the railway station. Very responsive hosts as well.
