I have lived in my home for the past 45 years and brought up 3 gorgeous children in this home, they no longer live with me ! I decided to open up my home for guests as I want others to enjoy the space, serenity and comfort of it - a home away from home !

Our home stay with Sharleen was awesome. Sharleen kept in constant touch and helped us reach her home effortlessly.The home stay is comfortable and tastefully done but the high point is Sharleens hospitality and personal attention. This was our first home stay experience and we will always cherish every moment of our time spent here. Thanks to Sharleen and her family (including three adorable dogs) for taking good care of us.
How do I book?
Contact the host to check their availability and ask them any questions you have about staying with them. Once the host confirms they’re available for your dates, you can complete your booking.
When do I pay?

You then pay your host on arrival or as stated by your host on their profile and agreed by you on booking. Please be cautious if a host requests advance payment if its not included on their profile. Our hosts have been advised that if they wish to request advance payment they must make this explicit in their profile. We do not recommend the use of Money gram or Western Union.
When can I share my contact details?
Host and Guest email address, phone number and home address will be exchanged in a confirmation email sent to both immediately after a booking is completed. It's against our policy for Guests and Hosts to exchange direct contact details via our messaging system.
