Susan’s place is definitely an urban retreat - peaceful, beautiful & relaxing. I stayed for a week without a car & found it easy to access public transport and also enjoyed the local amenities. Carkeek Park is so close & the neighbourhood is worth a stroll, too. Susan is a magnificent host who considers the little touches and makes you feel welcome - a real plus for a traveller from New Zealand after 20 hours of flying! I’d stay here again and highly recommend it to others. You won’t be sorry!
