They were very welcoming on my arrival day. Due to the timings of Green Party Conference I did not meet them again, however we kept it contact about my arrival with key for the second night and my departure early on the Sunday morning. Highly recommend. Graham

Peter arrived fresh from Malaysia but never really climatized to our british winter despite setting the heating on throughout the day and evening.

Carmen and Mel were able to help me out at very short notice, and were the perfect hosts. The bed was comfy and I slept well until the boiler kicked in but that wasn't a problem. Would I stay again? Most definitely!

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?
Once a host confirms they're available, you can go ahead and pay the 15% booking fee (maximum of 199 $£€ for longer term bookings) and a 25% deposit using a choice of payments: Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Maestro, Laser, JCB & PayPal. The deposit is collected in advance on behalf of the host to protect against no show or late cancellations (within 7 days of arrival). You then pay your host the balance due on arrival. The 25% deposit payment is made to the host 2 business days after your scheduled arrival date. This deposit payment will only be refunded if you cancel the booking at least 7 full days prior to arrival.
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.
