I felt so welcome in Sarah’s home. She has such a beautiful demeanor and is truly the epitome of a perfect host. The location is great, quiet and close to bus stops if you need to go to town. It’s also not far from shops via walking or bus.

Not sure much is in walking distance , If driving nothing is very far away . But Sarah is a lovely Person , very helpful and nothing is any trouble , did not see much of her Husband , but when I did , he was very friendly . Had the run of the house if I wanted , but I kept things very tidy , and that's all Sarah asks for . The room is a double so plenty of room , a big t.v. on the wall and so very comfortable . a shared bathroom . Left to do what you want . And yes if im working back that way id give Sarah a ring . very nice :)

Sarah & Louis are fantastic persons, as our first experience could not be better! We have received their availability as well as their friendship. The house is very modern, confortable ad full of every conforts. Stay with Louis & Sarah was like staying at home. Absolutely nice people!! The living with them is highly recommended.

First of all, I would like to thank this family for their welcome.
If you want to find a great family, you make the good choice. I will never regret my decision regarding my host family, I spent fabulous time with them.
Secondly, the room is more than correct for the price. You can cook, and wash (and dry) your clothes. It is not a problem. If they can help you, they will do it: for example I was sick and they took me to the doctor and then to the chemist's shop.
In addition, this family is ready to speak and exchange with you.
It is quite far from the town but it is accesible by bus, take in account 5 minutes by bus to join the stop, you have a great shooping center accessible by bus too (in less than 20 minutes). However, you have some shops not so far from the house. It is easy to make shopping on internet and then it will be delivered at home.
To conclude, I am still contact with them, I think the finality of this typ of experience is to create new relationship... and not just to let a room.September 2010
Sarah and Louis are very friendly, and the house was really good for me. Even if it is located in the north of Bristol, it was very easy to go out in the centre. The family is really nice and open-minded, so I felt very well with them.
