This house was absolutely beautiful—immaculate in every way, with not a single fault to mention. Every room was spotless, stylish, and made for a perfect stay.The host was incredible—so easy to communicate with and always responsive. She truly went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, and we felt wholeheartedly cared for throughout our stay.I couldn’t recommend this property and host more highly—it was simply outstanding!

The house was beautiful with so much character and the living and bedroom space was perfect, and it was close to everything we needed. It was well furnished throughout and the front and back gardens were lovely.We did find the bathroom very small for us (3 Adults and 2 big teenagers) and found ourselves using the laundry as a second bathroom. Some of the light fittings are also very low (in bathroom and over the dining table) and we did bump our heads a few times during our stay.Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Glenelg, and would gladly stay again in future.
