A beautiful stay in a wonderful location! Nothing was missing in the house for our comfort, hair dryer, dishwasher, washing machine and dryers (after 15 days of traveling were so appreciated). The neighborhood felt safe, and no noise at night of any kind, great plus for the light sleepers. Our kids were so excited to see horses passing by almost daily.The house has a great feel and is spacious, we were 7 and no one felt cramped.As fantastic as the house was, now about Islay our hostess:Not only her welcome was warm and genuine, But Islay goes out of her way (litteraly) for her guests!!! Between the beautiful basket of snacks/drinks, fresh flowers on the table, the extra touches that make you feel welcome and in your home away from home, Islay has the best recommendations for visits, what to do, how to etc...She is has involved or discreet as you want her to be. For our family she also went litterally out of her way (offered and drove to me on the other side of London to bring back things we had left behind). I could not recommend this place more highly, although i almost wish it could be a hidden gem!
