Charming cottage with educated host who was unnecessarily worried my bed would be too 'bouncy'. Lovely freshly home made bread for breakfast.

David was great, good to meet him and the other guests. Three of us went for a meal in a local pub, which was lovely. A good opportunity to see something of the village and learn about its history. David's house is great, full of character and in a great setting.

I booked last minute. David is a wonderful easy going and accommodating host who allowed me to feel at home and do my own thing. The historic house is lovely. The village is cute as a button. It's amazing to have a theatre almost next door at such a rural location. Lovely walks along the river.

David's house is in a stunning location by the Thames and is quirky and individual and has beautiful grounds. David is a wonderful host, I felt very welcome in his home with freedom to use the communal areas. David is also a charming and interesting person to talk to with many and varied interests. Highly recommended

David was a wonderful host. I was made to feel very welcome in his home. David also invited myself and another guest to the local pub for a lovely dinner. The village is also very picturesque with some good walks along the Thames.

A lovely one night stay in David's beautiful home. I was made very welcome, David was chatty & engaging throughout my stay - it felt like I'd known David far longer than a few hours. A repeat visit will be arranged. 5 star stay.
