Just occasionally, life delivers unexpected treats. Judith and Stefan, her son, invited me into their home, but shares their family too.
The room was exactly as described - cozy, comfortable and carefully arranged with everything you need; enhanced by clever personal touches like flowers and candles.
There are a couple of tube stations nearby, and good bus access as well, and a good sized park just over the road, that will be even nicer when the renovation work there is complete. Local shops and places to grab food are just down the road. Communication before and during my stay was swift and easy.
The hospitality and company was faultless, I felt more than at home but spoiled.
Lovely to meet such a gracious host family, and like-minded lady who made coming home from weekend work so much more than a place to sleep.
Thank you Judith for a truly comfortable stay and your great conversation.
