MandisaRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Linda’s place. Not only was it well located, with good restaurants and lots to explore outdoors, it was also cosy and felt like home on those chilly afternoons when I didn’t feel like going out. The host, Linda, was also great - I would highly recommend.

Spacious Modern-Boho House

JoscelynRating, 5 stars2 months ago
An absolute botanical Haven. The most peaceful Airbnb I have had the pleasure of staying in right in the middle of town. The house has old antique charm with a dick hole to match, beautiful private balcony that overlooks the gorgeous gardens. The support staff on the property are extremely helpful, friendly, and responsive when needed. The host is easy and friendly to communicate with making checking in and any changes and absolute pleasure have thoroughly enjoyed our time here will definitely book again.

Sandhurst Garden Cottage

NandiRating, 5 stars2 months ago
Warwick's home is truly a beautiful safe and tranquil space, super close to all amenities, clean and very comfortable. Equipped for long stays and the stunning garden is a paradise for the dogs. Only one small thing to note is the internet is not WiFi, and if you work from home on large files, you will need to buy extra data. But will def recommend this peaceful piece of paradise.
A well-appointed bedroom features a spacious bed with a light-colored comforter. A colorful cityscape painting adorns one wall, while a mirrored wardrobe and an en-suite bathroom are visible in the background. A decorative arrangement of glassware and dishes is displayed in the foreground.

Junie Moon's guest flatlette

EcovizibleRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Review for June’s Place: I had an exceptional stay at June’s Place! June is an outstanding host—warm, attentive, and genuinely committed to making her guests feel at home. She went above and beyond to ensure every need was met, creating a comfortable and relaxed atmosphere throughout my stay. The accommodation was spotless, beautifully maintained, and equipped with everything one could possibly need for a short stay. The location is also incredibly convenient, with essential stores and shopping centers just a short distance away. I highly recommend June’s Place to anyone looking for a clean, cozy, and well-located home away from home. I’ll definitely be back!

TinaRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Liz is awesome! Great host and was very understanding about my husband being on call and having to leave at the early hours of the morning. The place is clean and neat and although there were some issues with wifi and heating, Liz let me know beforehand and gave us an extra heater. Lots of blankets in the cupboards and access is super easy. Very safe and plenty of parking with electric closed gate and security. Would definitely stay again. Thankyou Liz!
