Above and beyond! Gillian's place is set in the absolutely gorgeous suburb of Subiaco, it has a charming courtyard with your own laneway access, not to mention a very friendly magpie that may join you for breakfast or afternoon tea most days.
Gillian is the absolute hostess with the mostess! While in isolation (due to COVID border restrictions), Gillian picked up a birthday cake and her husband played a beautiful rendition of 'Happy Birthday' on the piano, which made a such a difference to Tony's stay. Even offering to pick up some fish and chips on a Friday night - how great is that!
Even before arriving Gillian was very responsive, offering to collect shopping if we needed. However, we did an online shop and had it delivered, Gillian ensured that the cold food was in the fridge upon arrival. From cake shop recommendations (Swiss bakery is absolutely outstanding) to shopping and takeout, nothing was too much trouble.
I cannot rate Gillian's place highly enough, I wish I could give it 100 stars!
