We had several contacts with Jean before we arrived and she supplied us with very valuable information about where to go, what to see and what to do. The Bixby Knolls is a very beautiful and calm neighbourhood with its own history. You find good shops and restaurant within walking distance. Coming from a stay in an apartment the week before we thoroughly enjoyed the house. It is well equipped, has a nice and shady garden with a pool. We are a family of five and the pool was something the kids enjoyed a lot. It is actually larger than it appears on the pictures! The neighbourhood is safe and you can enjoy strolls in the streets with well kept houses and gardens. We enjoyed very much to stay in Jeans house. There was a special atmosphere in Bixby Knolls. We can definitely recommend this to others.
