We stayed with Maria as her house was close to Spurs Stadium where we were going to see a concert. It turned out that Maria's hospitality was the highlight of our visit for all four of us rather than the gig (although that was good). Our stay was incredible - honestly, the best welcome, hospitality and accommodation we have ever had. Maria looked after us like we were family and opened up her beautiful house and garden to us. We arrived quite late and very tired due to heavy traffic on the road down from Scotland (we let Maria know we would be delayed). Maria welcomed us warmly and had prepared one of the most delicious, freshly cooked meals I've ever had. We sat out in the warmth of her lovely private patio with fairy lights and beautiful flowers all around us, drinking fine wine and eating like we were in a Michelin restaurant. The weariness of the trip soon fell away. Maria is a delightful hostess - friendly, kind, great company and very attentive. We were spoiled. Nothing is too much trouble - the rooms are clean and comfortable and Maria's breakfasts are one of the wonders of the world. We can't wait to go back.
