Overall a great stay & would stay again as very good location & a short 5 minute walk into the town centre
Lovely big old property & huge garden space with a hot tub, although I think an additional charge of £30 is a little steep which put us off using it, if it had been nite reasonable then we’d definitely have used it! Nice homemade granola & sourdough toast & marmalade for breakfast.
Great big bedrooms although I think in the second back bedroom, this would benefit from a king size bed. Also I think Kate should get a key safe fitted as this would be a much safer option & we found ourselves locked out on our return from the pub & unfortunately had to ring the doorbell.

Great find!
Firstly, I did comment soon after staying as I was thrilled to have found Kate's home. I had some trepidation about parking as I don't travel light and the weather was not great on my trip. Parking was tight but I got a spot right bang in front of the house. Everything about my stay was lovely. Hostess - the one other guest at the time, another woman. The house, as I told Kate, has a lovely peaceful vibe.

Lovely, quiet space for my trip to Stroud.
Perfect location for my needs. (Attending a course around the corner). Stayed in a lovely large bedroom, with amazing heating and natural light. Breakfast necessities readily available and accommodating to all potential needs. The homemade, cosy feel that created is amazing and thorough; only detracted by the cleanliness-How can it feel like home, yet be so clean?! Decorated tastefully, but not sparce. (Absolute selling point for me!) Kate was very friendly and approachable. A wonderful, mutli-talented host, whose extra care is shown through the homemade sourdough, jams, and fresh milk for my tea addiction! I particularly enjoyed the bath, it was a huge selling point for me. But I will return for the serenity and peace. Lovely break, even if it was for a work course. Thank you, Kate! I wish I could have stayed longer once I arrived; I was originally worried about negotiating the shared bathroom, but I left feeling so revitalised and relaxed. It was not an issue, with Kate's dutiful care and communication, I felt safe in the shared environment. If I were nitpicking, maybe I was expecting more storage space for clothes, etc (though, living out of a suitcase was perfectly agreeable and hardly a hardship).

Such a beautiful house
The experience what it is like to live in a beautiful British townhouse. Tastefully decorated.
When traveling with a baby it is a bit cramped.

Quality room in a friendly Victorian house.
The room was clean and very tastefully decorated. The bed was comfortable with good quality bedding. Robes, teas and coffee making facilities were good too. The inclusion of breakfast at this price was a bonus, freshly made sourdough bread, jam, cereal, yoghurt, juice, etc. It was also nice to meet the couple staying in the other room. The whole experience was relaxed, friendly and homely. This is not a hotel, it's two rooms in a large Victorian house, so that's what you get. We enjoyed our stay, enjoyed chatting with Kate (our host) and would return.
Considering the quality of the room and the convenience of parking on the street outside the property and then walking into Stroud, it's hard to find fault with our stay. While not a criticism, I feel it's worth mentioning that the room does not include a television. When we go away for the weekend, it's a guilty pleasure to indulge in some mindless TV whilst we get ready to go out for the evening. We should have paid closer attention to the list of facilities and brought a laptop with us (WiFi is excellent). It's a pretty room that might be spoilt by a TV, so, I'm not suggesting that one should be added, but I wanted to mention it for the benefit of future guests who make assumptions.

Kate is a fantastic host with a beautiful home. Highly recommend the stay!
Everything, Kate was a lovely host, the house was glorious, breakfast options were plentiful, bedroom was mahoosive. She catered for the arrival of my baby at the drop of a hat (for some reason, booking.com didn't transfer that information as part of the booking)
