From the communication prior to arrival to the welcome we received when we got there, including some essentials ready and waiting for us in the fridge, it really couldn't have been better.

Ian was a gracious host, provided a wealth of information on the property and the surrounding area and though not needed, made it clear he was available should we need to get in touch during the stay.

The house itself is wonderful. Small and cozy yet large enough to not be cramped. The added benefit of the garden with the heatwave that arrived just as the stay started was a welcome blessing - it really felt like a home away from home.

I'll be recommending Ian's place when we have other guests visit the area.
