Ben made me feel very welcome and communicated well through my stay.The room was as described and the renovation that he described had no impact on me at all. The room and house are modern but tasteful and has all the mod-cons you'd hope for.The room and house are quiet.The area is quiet and seems safe.There are plenty of shops and restaurants within 10 minutes walk.In the High St. there is up to 20 places to buy meals,food and snacks including Poundland,Saintsbury's, Waitrose and Iceland.Altogether thoroughly enjoyed my stay and would definitely recommend.
