We loved our stay at the cottage, which was even nicer than the Airbnb description and photos!! Freddie communicated well and quickly, was very responsive to the smallest issue, and was kind, thoughtful and helpful without being in any way intrusive. The directions to the cottage were spot-on, self check-in was easy & secure (with 2 sets of keys), and Freddie provided a binder with lots of information about the area, along with a little welcoming bouquet of flowers and milk for our tea :-) Transportation was easy, as there were several bus lines a 3 minute walk away, and St Margaret's station was less than 10 minutes. St Margaret's also has numerous coffee shops, some delicious breakfast places (especially The Green Bottle and Sunshine & Ravioli), an excellent butcher (Armstrong's), a small but very well stocked organic grocery (Gaia Wholefoods), a Tesco, an excellent apothecary (Botanical Pharmacy & Clinic), an amazing little hardware shop (Cutter's) full of anything you might need, and other lovely shops as well! Overall, the cottage is well-appointed, with many thoughtful little touches & little extras, with comfortable and good quality furniture, and an open floor plan. Everything was very clean and tidy, it smelled freshly aired, not like scented cleaners, and it was very spacious, not at all cluttered. It felt very welcoming and homey, and very secure, with sturdy locks on all the windows including the French windows out to the garden, and 2 locks on the front door. The flat is very light, with lots of windows that have curtains or blinds for privacy. And it stayed cool inside even during record-breaking hot weather! The street was so quiet. We loved the garden and spent many happy hours eating and relaxing out there, as it was shady and cool for all but 2-3 hours during the day. We happily watered the plants (and our feet!) during the worst of the heat. The kitchen had all the basics and more! There were plenty of utensils, sharp-ish kitchen knives, more cutting boards than anyone needs, non-stick skillets and pans with lids, plenty of mugs and tumblers, different sized serving & baking dishes, and even some storage containers for leftovers. And of course, an English teapot! It also included olive oil and balsalmic vinegar, salt, pepper, coffee (with a French press), tea and a few other basic necessities, including plenty of chip clips! The small refrigerator kept things very cool and held everything the 3 of us needed, the little dishwasher was just the right size and ran perfectly, and the stove, oven and microwave were very clean and in excellent working order. There was a combination washer/dryer also in the kitchen, which did a great job washing our clothes, but since there was a drying rack and the weather was hot and sunny, we hung them all out to dry. And there was a very lovely ironing board and iron to smooth out any wrinkles :-) The bathroom looks to have been recently remodeled, and although small and without any storage (we put our toiletries on the broad windowsill in the kitchen), has a tub and a shower, a skylight, and a fan, and towel warming bars, and was scrupulously clean. The towels themselves were large and white and thick, a pleasure to use. The seating in the front room was comfortable for 4 people, the WiFi met all our needs, and the digital TV (with Amazon Firestick) was easy to use and worked well. The upstairs bedrooms (one double, one with 2 twins) had comfortable beds with two pillows apiece, nice little dressers & tables, wall hooks for clothes, and a large wardrobe in the room with two twins with lots of hangers. None of the furniture smelled musty or left any scent on clothes stored in dresser drawers. The windows had nice blinds that let in some light at the beginning of the day. All in all, it was one of our best Airbnb experiences ever, and we hated to leave! We hope to stay there again when we visit next summer!
