Tessie is a lovely host! You stay in her home with her family and so she makes you feel as if you are family as well and just as welcome. Even with the sparkling reviews on her host page Tessie still outdid our expectations of comfort, friendliness and being welcome in her home. She offers breakfast each morning and intelligent conversation at any time of the day. Always offering any help she could, including driving us into town to catch our train instead of paying for the bus. I would highly recommend her to anyone staying in the area and would look to stay with her when I return.
