I was made to feel extremely welcome, the host replied quickly to my late booking and offered very helpful advice and suggestions pertinent to my visit. The host communicated in a warm and friendly manner and let me know that I could contact him at any time. All my emails or telephone calls were answered promptly. The interior of his home is even more beautiful than the photographs and I thought they were superb. It was really nice that visitors are asked to take their footwear off before mounting the stairs as it meant the carpet was pristine and nice for me to walk on as well - I do this in my home and so it was great to feel clean inside another person's place too. I highly recommend this place.
