Mary Ellen is such a lively character and very funny. I immediately felt warm upon my arrival and met her beautiful family. The place she offered was more than what I needed, they are situated on one of the most intriguing landscapes ever seen, their backyard is on a hill surrounded with a dense natural environment.
I really enjoyed my privacy and winding down time at the studio, there was no problem with hot water in the shower and having been provided some fruit and candles was a big winner for me.
With the help of a previous comment, yes, you would hear the occasional footsteps or chairs moving on the floorboards but I was ready with my ear plugs and had one of the longest sleeps I've had in a while. Thank you Mary Ellen, John and Richard for your hospitality :)
