Our stay with Richard, in his lovely home, was all we could have hoped for. The accommodation was perfect for us and he could not have more helpful and friendly to a couple of tourists....even before we arrived! I had a few questions about taxi pick up at the airport etc so sent Richard my questions about that and the replies were swift and really helpful.
We didn't have a car for this trip but Richard helped us with the Lyft 'taxi' service, as you can't book them with a UK tel number, which certainly saved us time and expense from using regular taxis. Though a walk down the road took us to the 7 bus which went into town anyway.
If you want to feel like a local rather than a faceless guest in a hotel, then this is definitely the way to go. It was our first time with Airbnb but it will certainly not be the last!
