Host has good communication, I loved that the kitchen had pretty much everything, but would suggest adding a baking tray for the oven. Was clean and tidy.

Communication was good and Janet’s rest is a really nice holiday house. The beds were extremely comfortable and there was everything we needed in the house. We did struggle in the heat wave with no air conditioning. Maybe something to consider. My husband went home early as he doesn’t cope well in the heat.
