    Location was great, overall view of property was ok,property was as you would expect with a property that is about 25 years old and could do with a bit of R&M. A couple of issues we found for us as older people was the limited parking we had to park up against the garden which made getting in and out of a vehicle difficult as well as getting up the stairs to the unit with our luggage because of where we had to park, another issues was no lighting from where we parked to the unit up concrete stairs in the dark, lucky I had a torch in the car. apart from that our stay was ok.

    Jane looked after us so much more than we expected. She went out of her way to allow us to have a great holiday. We have stayed at times in the past and she can always be relied on. The Homestay comes highly recommended by us.

    Ideal location as it was quiet and just a pleasant short walk to the shops. Jane and Geoff and Miri were very welcoming. On arrival they gave us some lovely grapefruit marmalade for our morning toast. The unit had everything we needed.

    A cute wee flat with everything you need. Jane gave us clear instructions on how to find it and very kindly supplied milk, bread, butter and homemade jam as well as fresh bananas from her own tree on the property. Everything was very clean and the bed was warm and comfortable. Jane was super friendly and helpful with information about things to see and do. It was a lovely introduction to Russell.
