December 7th -18th 2018 Stayed at The Loft Penthouse Apartment Ashton Under Lyne Greater Manchester, host being Carolyn.
Being the first time I have ever used Airbnb I had slight reservations, but took the recommendation from my sister , who swears by it and has used Airbnb for many years.
Well I had no reason to be concerned, I have had the best experience ever and to say I have found my New Home in the UK is an understatement. Firstly the location was absolutely perfect for my requirements to be near family and also accessibility to Motorways and also shops and towns. Carolyn The Landlady/Host) was quite simply divine and can safely say that I have adopted her to the family, she simply could not have been more welcoming right from the confirmation of my booking my arrival and continuously during my stay. She works tirelessly to ensure that you have all that you need and is always on hand for anything you need and remains determined that you are comfortable and at home.
The Apartment was /is first class and offered everything and more that i needed , practical, homey, more than comfortable in all aspects, cupboards are stacked with a comprehensive crockery , condiment start up food & more , bedding , Iron and board , TV (Full Sky) ,Work area, dining area and a fully functional bathroom sleeping area, laundry room with washer and tumble dryer. Additionally it offers all the character of a coach house and panoramic views of the beautiful North of England. Apart from my apartment , the coach house offers several other rooms for families and larger parties including the converted barn that is amazing for large family gatherings. I have truly been made to feel at home and this lovely host Carolyn is truly amazing and adorable and has become etched in my life. From our first communication I felt I had known her all my life with warmth and sincerity pouring from her in all that she does. I can not wait to stay here again when I return from my home in Cyprus and I know that i will not be looking at the so called mainstream hotels in the future. I have found my home !! Thank you Carolyn and Airbnb. I also look forward to writing my review to appear on the booking page as I feel that everyone looking in this geographical are MUST know about this place. Amazing
