Paula and Mick are wonderful hosts : they are ready to help but don’t interfere, trusting guests to treat their lovely property with respect.
The apartment is exceptionally well- equipped, spacious and extremely comfortable. There has been a lot of careful planning ( and buying) involved.
Care is needed descending the sturdy staircase to the basement , but if one is reasonably healthy and sensible - particularly if carrying cases - there should be no problem. The fact that lights come on automatically is very welcome.
Old Landsdowne Road is a pleasant area with at least two lively areas - Didsbury and Willington - each a shortish walk away. Had we chosen to use public transport the buses run very frequently.
