What can I say about Allan and his home - STUPENDOUS! What a generous, funny, giving, and truly helpful. My fiancé and I stayed at his place for one month. The room we stayed in was perfect for us! We had everything we needed and Allan provided us with many extras. He truly opened up his home to us. He made some DELICIOUS homemade bread for our breakfast and catered to our vegan diet. We slept in a very comfy bed and had a chance to get to know Jillian and other guests that were staying in the house. Any questions or concerns we had he answered very quickly. He's a great cook and a talented man. I will always remember waking up to him playing Depuis le jour one morning. That will forever be embedded into my memory! The train station (zone 3) is a 2 min. walk from the house along with access to a GREAT farmers market. A big bowl of whatever fruits or vegetable will cost you £1!! Insane! We saved a lot of money that way. There's a fantastic Indian restaurant called Kalavara. I can't mention enough the generosity Allan bestowed on my fiancé and I. If you're wanting a great stay with a fantastic person and affordable at the same time, Allan is your man!
