Superb room in a household

Gerry was the best host possible, friendly, helpful and attentive but at the same time respecting our privacy. The house and garden were lovely, the bed was very comfortable, the continental breakfast superb and I cannot think of a better setup if you are happy to be in a room sharing a house with a host.
