The bungalow is bigger than I'd anticipated and has a very welcoming, calm vibe, it really makes you feel at home. Having a full kitchen, bath and outside space was so lovely. Huge sofa for two to lie full length and read and honestly the most comfortable bed I've ever slept in! Bars just around the corner, Gourmands (have great breakfast options) and The Lost Well (looks scarey, is so friendly) have excellent beer selections and very generous pours of gin. Having the bikes was fantastic, we only used our rental car when we went out of town (Lone Star Range and Lockhart one day, Fredericksburg and Canyon Lake another) other than that we walked or biked. The Hike and Bike trails are great and cabs are pretty cheap for getting back from nights out. Barton Springs Pool is an absolute must, gorious swimming in a massive spring fed pool, but also walk up the Barton green belt trail along the river to spots where you can have a paddle/dip in the river. Also highly recommend The White Horse, The Saxon and our favourite Craft Pride in Rainey. Visited a few breweries, Hops & Grain, Friends & Allies and The AGBG make awesome beers and have great bars.
All in all it was an awesome holiday that would have been great anyway but was made much easier by Jennifer's help, it's like having an expert local guide on hand and she's also a gloriously sunny, positive person so thanks Austin and even bigger thanks Jennifer.
