The host was helpful and friendly but not intrusive. The property was easy drive from Levels Raceway and a nice change from the noise of the track. The studio was tastefully furnished and provisioned with everything we needed. A particularly peaceful garden setting which would be even better on a longer term stay to truly enjoy it all!
