From the moment we walked through the door at Ella and Jon’s tidy and attractive house, we knew we were someplace special. The word that comes to mind is “warm.” Everything about Ella and Jon as hosts (and as people in general) is warm, friendly, and thoughtful. We were fortunate to have a peaceful night’s sleep in the comfortable bed each night and to wake up to freshly-baked bread and cake in the morning. We enjoyed talking and joking with our hosts over breakfast in their cozy kitchen overlooking the tranquil garden. Ella and Jon gave us helpful recommendations for checking out local markets, restaurants, and pubs. We got engaged during this unforgettable vacation, so London will always hold a special place in our hearts! Because of Jon and Ella’s kindness, generosity, and hospitality, we will always remember them fondly as well.
