the beautifull and fragrant garden full of herbs and flowers

it was a pity that the very attractive sheets were too new

Laura was lovely, asked if I needed anything and she would try and get it if needed. Offered for me too park on her drive. Nice and quiet location with the interior made it feel homely. Maybe in the winter if it gets too cold in my caravan I’ll be back 🙂

Only criticism would be the bed, but too be fair I am 17+ stone & 6”5 also prone too back pain. So not a fair reflection but worth noting.

It was much smaller than we thought.Not enough space to be comfortable.

Everything was great, and the garden so cute, the place so peaceful... And Laura even helped me borrowing her own PC monitor! I cannot ask for more.

Independent secure access, convenient parking, provision of breakfasts, bathroom and garden.

Tiny room space..

The friendly host made really an efforrt to live up to the term hideaway. The small studio in the owners back garden was very well constructed, neatly maintained, and tastefully decorated. The garden, apparently designed by the host's aunt, is beautiful integrated in the combined bedroom, living room, and kitchen, just a terrace door away, being the main source of light. The studio is located in a residential area, not really close to Leamington Spa's small city center, but a 20 minute walk for a one mile walk from the train station. For these reasons the apartment is very tranquil in a red brick neighborhood, typically for the region.

We had mixed feelings for the mattress, as it was very soft, and some springs could actually be felt indeed. It's size did not match with the bed, not in width (140cm of a typical Ikea design), but in length, leaving a foot long gap either at the top of at bottom of the bed. These are minor issues, though. While I usually don't complain about room sizes, the hideaway was particularly crampy. Even with just two small carry-on bags, there was effectively no space for storing clothes without crawling and kneeling over the bed. The breakfast service is debatable: Effectively it is no service at all, but all necessary ingredients are provided in the fridge for self-preparation. This is fine with me, especially in an apartment style accomodation, but I think it's described a bit misleading in the Booking offer.

Quiet and tucked away. Detached so no earplugs needed, unlike most hotels/guest houses! Very well equipped with basic kitchen essentials if any cooking required.

TV would have been useful but knew in advance that not provided.

The Hideaway was very comfortable and cosy. Full of interesting art/pottery. Lovely breakfast. Very welcoming host and super convenient for Leamington.
