The accommodation was pretty well located; a wonderful Victorian house, perfectly maintained, with nice interior decoration. The heating system was adjusted at the right point, all the time. On top of the property features, the host's attention was the highest and most remarkable aspect of our staying. They took good care of us, being available and willing to help us at any moment.
