We had a fantastic welcome from Simone, John Rooney and Rosie (their two elegant and very friendly greyhounds) even though they were in the middle of a dinner party!
There was a great selection of teas & coffee provided in the room and lots of really helpful information about the locale.
Simone and John recommended a Turkish restaurant called Cicilia in Muswell hill where we had supper that night and the food was excellent, really delicious and very good value.
The house was colourful, warm and charming and the room was lovely and warm and has a superb garden view and a separate ensuite bathroom with an excellent shower and a beautiful slipper bath, it is totally private as its tucked away at the top of the house. Simone’s home-made granola made a delicious breakfast and there was an amazing selection of oat and nut milks to accompany it along with fresh fruit and yoghurt.
We also had home made porridge & there were an abundance of preserves on offer to go with the lovely multi-seeded granary bread. They really couldn’t have done any more to make us our stay more comfortable and enjoyable. Rarely do you feel at home so quickly with people that you’ve only just met but Simone & John are just such people who’s hospitality and charm was given with a genuine warm and sensitivity. By the time we left they felt more like old friends than hosts.
