Our stay was our first experience with airbnb. I've always felt a little cautious about staying in one as you never know if the pictures are true. Well let me tell you all that the pictures just don't do this place justice. If you want a place to relax and unwind then go no further. You have found perfection. Set well off the road in a quiet cul de sac on a large acreage, amidst a sanctuary of a much loved and long established garden.
Upon entering Barbs home it's a visual delight. It is emaculate!!! (Not the type that you perch on the edge of a chair and are afraid to touch anything), but the type that offers a wonderful homey feeling. ( you know after travelling and your tired and you flop in a comfy chair and exhale) the beautiful aroma of fresh cut flowers calming your senses.
Once you drag yourself out of the lounge to get a drink you find that Barb (the wonderful host she is) has prempted your thoughts and has supplied cheese and drinks amongst other little surprises.
It is tastefully decorated throughout and much larger than anticipated.
The bathroom was just amazing! With its heated floor and huge shower recess ( which my 6ft5in husband appreciated) was heven sent.
Usually you can't wait to get home to your own bed but not the case here. We both slept soundly in the unbelievably comfortable master bed.
We spent quite a bit of time on the back patio/BBQ/outdoor entertaining area gazing out into the lush tranquil gardens. In the evening it becomes a fairy garden with lights eliminating the trees.
We enjoyed our stay so much that we extended our stay for another week.
As a hostess barb is the best! She is there if you need her but respects your privacy.
We will definitely be back. Happy airbnb travellers Ann and fred
