Joanne is the real, real deal as a host - she really goes out of her way to make you welcome and help with everything. She is the most welcoming host I have ever stayed with on AIR, offers tea and coffee and serves a lovely breakfast in the antique-filled conservatory. The house is super tranquil so just as the listing says. I was really surprised to have a comfortable bed with feather/down quilt and pillows - well worth the price. The area is what Joanne describes as 'edgy' - it's very arty and multi cultural which is lovely but if there is any downside, it's a bit of a walk for a lone woman to go out to dinner at night. Loved it all and the single room is much larger than expected with a great desk for working overlooking the garden.
