Lois and Mick were very welcoming and hospitable. They struck a good balance between being friendly and available to help with anything I needed, and also letting me just get on with it. Lots of people say they're easy going - but Lois and Mick genuinely are! Beforehand, I didn't realise there would be several other people staying too, but everyone was super chilled, friendly, and interesting, plus this is a big house with plenty space and hot water for everyone. It worked well for me as a stop-gap between London flats. Thank you both!
