A true gem in Glasgow! We booked 2 stays in 9 days with Nicole. We left briefly to head up to Fife for a family wedding and came back down to Glasgow before we headed back home to Canada. Really glad we had booked the 2nd stay since we knew the layout and what to expect. All the comforts of home. Perfect location to Gardens and Byers Road. Loads of great restaurants, coffee shops, market, etc. Everything within walking distance. The nicest spot we have booked in all the accommodation we have ever booked during our travels. Highly recommend. Thanks again Nicole!

Perfect place to stay for anyone wanting to experience the West End of the city. Kelvingrove Park, the Botanic Gardens and Glasgow University all a short walk away. Restaurants, bars on Byres Road, Great Western Road and Ashton Lane. Bonus being Hillhead subway, making trips into the City and beyond fast and easy.

We had a wonderful stay in Glasgow, thanks in no small part to this flat and our amazing host, Nicole. The flat is beautiful. The location is probably among the best in Glasgow. And Nicole's recommendations put the icing on the proverbial cake. Highly recommend to any solo traveler or couple looking for a lovely stay in Glasgow!
