Joel and Elsa are such thoughtful, accommodating and responsive hosts. Their hospitality (dealing with our last minute queries and logistics before, during and at the end of our stay, even while on holiday themselves) was fantastic and we couldn't have asked for more. We could also see from the contents of their beautiful home - from books and toys to food choices, many of which we have/use ourselves - that they clearly put a lot of thought, care and kindness into how they raise their children and this is very much reflected in how they treat their guests. The tupperware and various kitchen and household equipment available is impressive - just a strange lack of adult drinking glasses. The house is as fun and as spacious as described and one can only imagine how much more special it will be once they finished making it their own - eg. some bold, colourful and inviting wallpaper samples are hung up in the downstairs toilet. Our daughters, aged 1 and 3, LOVED the indoor climbing frame, huge trampoline, slide and were particularly taken by a blue board book, with various buttons playing jolly French nursery rhymes - the joy they got from nodding, smiling and dancing along to the songs, in between running 10 mile laps around the house, kept us all entertained!
