Beautiful home

This home is great, well furnished with everything you need. Feel like cooking and staying in - all you need is your groceries, plenty of cooking utensils, gas stove, fridge, and more. Plenty of space in the living room, and dining. Host had all the great touches including family games, books, bedding, towels, and more. We were arrived early, and the easily made accommodation for us to check in early. Lots of greenery, and a beautiful pear tree in the back. Thank you!

Charming Casita

I had a wonderful stay in this charming, unique little house in Birmingham. The outside space was private, and lovely, and I was very comfortable. I would love to stay here again when in the area. The renter was extremely accessible and helpful. Great experience:)
