Alix’s home is a truly beautiful and stylish family home with everything to hand that you could possibly need. The first impression is of the grand and impressive living area with beautiful high ceilings, very tastefully decorated, and leading onto the kitchen / dining and back garden. Alix shares a mutual passion for lamp-lighting! The rooms are spacious and all but one with air conditioning, but even though we were there on a week of repeated 38 degree days, we survived :D!! Plenty of storage space left empty for our clothes, space in the fridge for our food, etc. We were able to very much make ourselves at home. The house is well located, a short 5 minute walk away from the centre of town or from the public garden, which also has a nice natural history museum that our 3 year old enjoyed. We had a lovely time and only wish that our flat in London had some of the grand romantic charm of Alix’s family home.
