Elle was a lovely host ... her cottage/home is warm and pleasant and inviting. The living room has lots of comfortable seating. It is easy to be there. Kitchen is well stocked!!! All sorts of little things that most times you have to bring/ buy on your own (garbage bags, toilet paper, paper towels, salt & pepper, olive oil, dishwasher detergent, soaps etc.)
The garden is spectacular.
Location is super convenient.
The beds are new and very comfortable, with good linens. Lots of towels.
Eleanor lives in an apartment upstairs - she enters & exits through the back door/ living space. But we hardly knew she was there, ever. Super quiet and respectful of guest's privacy.
She is a smart, enthusiastic, energetic, positive host - very accommodating and will do almost anything to make her guests happy and comfortable.
