We stayed in James’s cottage for one week at Christmas during our family visit to Melbourne from Belgium. Communication prior to our arrival was excellent and Jim very kindly provided a wonderful breakfast, which was very welcome after the long flight. Jim is a fantastic host, so welcoming, attentive and responsive. We loved everything about the cottage. It is beautifully designed, light and very comfortable, with a lovely garden and very peaceful feel. It was equipped with everything our family needed. The location is perfect, close to the city but in a peaceful area with lovely cafes nearby (we especially loved Next of Kin around the corner!). It was simply a fantastic place to stay and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it very highly to anyone visiting Melbourne. Thank you so much Jim!
