The Chelsea cottage was such a lovely warm and inviting space, perfect for our group. We had a lovely stay. Jules was a fantastic host easy to communicate with and really helpful. Would absolutely stay again! Thanks!!
Lovely property for larger groups of people. Loft room gets a little stuffy and hot. A couple of light bulbs were out but nothing that really mattered. The owner offered to come replace them but we decided to just leave it.
