Waterside Studio flat - Sleeps 2 - Central&Parking
It was a good quiet location and lovely to overlook the water while having breakfast. Everything was in easy access or walking distance. We would definitely stay here again.

Trafalgar Mount
Jane's apartment is fantastic! It's spacious, beautifully furnished and has wonderful views. Four of us stayed for one night and found it comfortable and quiet. We enjoyed a nice walk along the prom and found a handy pub to have a good lunch in. The city centre is within easy reach with good transport connections. We were made to feel at home by Jane and the cold beers in the fridge on arrival were most welcome! Thank you. Her communication and instructions were excellent from the moment we booked. We would definitely stay here again on our next trip to Liverpool. Highly Recommended!

Velvet Nest 5 min walk from train station
I bought this as a mini getaway for my Mum and Grandma for my Grandmas 90th Birthday. Great location - easily walking distance into Leamington centre. My grandma loved looking out over the canal with her morning coffee. The both said the venue was very comfy and well equipped.

The Flat, Shepley secure parking & welcome hamper
Lovely stay and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend. Very warm and friendly welcome from the hosts, Suzanne and Ian who were there to meet me and explained how everything worked. Welcome pack a nice bonus and very much appreciated after a long drive. Flat was beautiful, light and airy but at the same time, homely and welcoming. Very peaceful location and felt very safe there, something very important to me as a female guest staying on my own. Great communication and the few queries I had during my stay were answered very quickly. Local shop within walking distance for anything you might need and a coffee shop which looked very inviting and a must try venue for next time. All-in-all, a wonderfully relaxing stay.

Boutique York City Centre Studio-Free Parking inc
We thoroughly enjoyed staying at Carolyn’s place in York, a brilliant apartment, well equipped and such a perfect location, just a few minutes from the centre walking. Carolyn was great with any questions we had and her instructions/directions were all super clear, thank you!!

Coed y Celyn Hall Apt2. Betws-y-Coed Snowdonia
Excellent place to stay, great location , friendly host

HEBDEN VIEWS. 13 NEW RD. HEBDEN BRIDGE. HX7 8AD
We loved our stay at Gina’s and hope to come back sometime soon. Hebden Bridge is a friendly, charming village - so lovely - and Gina’s place above her fused glass studio is so pretty and filled with light and pops of color. We could walk all over, including in a nearby park and along the river. Thank you, Gina!

Delightful Cottage in Picturesque Rural Village
We have just returned from a week in Dalemore Cottage and could not have wished for more. The cottage itself is set in the most glorious location and the inside is just as good. Comfy bed, well equipped kitchen and beautifully furnished. Pru and Chris were the most welcoming of hosts and Pru’s home cooked meal service was excellent, I even asked for some of the recipes. If you are looking for a quiet spot, in a fabulous location with excellent hosts this is the place for you.

Canalside cottage, close to city centre.
My brothers second stay here, cannot recommend it highly enough such a convenient location for the town and a wonderful space. Lovely location for canal walks and restaurants in town. The house is beautiful and so well maintained and has everything you need. John and Alison are the perfect hosts and nothing is too much trouble. They respond to messages quickly and it was lovely to meet them this time too! I’m sure if my brother comes back in the next couple of years we will look to book again.

River front unique stylish home with free parking
Great location and communication from host

Chapel Cottage
Just got back from a 3 day stay at this lovely cottage. The location is exactly what was needed. Tranquil, Peaceful and Quiet. We travelled as a couple with a 3 year old and a dog. The garden was big and allowed the dog to roam about without too much worry (other than the stream at the end of the garden). The cows in the next field made for the countryside experience! There are many things to go see and visit in the local area and further like the Lake Vernwyn or Pistyll Rhaeadr waterfall with hikes and walks. The cottage itself is beautiful and you can see the effort and heart that went into the renovation. It has a homely and cosy feel with everything you need for a stay. We would 100% stay again and would recoup anyone looking for an authentic Welsh countryside break to look no further than Chapel Cottage.

The Boathouse Stone Cottage
Absolutely loved our stay here. Perfect location, easy to go out and come back if needed. Comfy beds. Milk provided Private court yard but we also sat out by the river to people watch. The free river cruise you get with here was a nice touch. My husband thinks best place we've stayed. Lovely homely feel, we didn't want to leave. Will definitely be back. Only one thing after long drive there, there were no tea bags only a herbal one (I do normally try and remember some) but after a short walk to town to get some soon had cuppa in hand! Very handy for shops restaurants and walks along the river. Perfect few days. Thanks

The Woodshed
The Woodshed was absolutely beautiful and looked exactly like the pictures. Our host was incredibly kind, thoughtful and we truly enjoyed the delicious cake. If you’re looking for a cozy and unforgettable stay, just pack your bag and head to this Woodshed . It’s truly worth every penny. We had such a lovely time and would definitely come back!

Couples Canalside Retreat with Hot Tub & Pergola
we had a beautiful stay. the place was spotless and very welcoming. probably the best place to have an air b and b with plenty of cafes, pubs and restaurants to chose from. the people locally are very helpful and polite. it was very peaceful to walk along the canal and to the national park.

The Lodge@Bridge Cottage
Thank you to Suzanne for an amazing stay. It was very relaxing, not just because of the location and surroundings, but also because Suzanne provided everything we needed to settle after a long journey. Although we didn’t formally speak, we felt you were there if we needed anything and always responded almost immediately. You provided a lot of useful information including maps for local walks, shops etc. We liked that fact that we could walk out of the lodge and immediately find walking routes in any direction. We also liked that the garden was secure, one of our dogs is a little excitable and it was reassuring to know that she could venture in to the garden without worrying about what she was up to! All amenities were perfectly functional and of good quality. Comfortable bed, nice bathroom with good shower too. Thank you for a lovely stay. I would recommend Suzanne’s place to anyone who likes long scenic walks, relaxing, and escaping their busy lives in a beautiful location.

Relaxing Apartment, XL Bed with Terrace & Parking
My teenage daughters and I stayed at James’s place, it was easy to access, communication was great with James and a small issue whilst it couldn’t be rectified at the time (it didn’t bother me) he informed me it was fixed after we left which is great. There was a local store to get bits and pieces of food and drink. Easy access to Manchester and a view of the river from the back of the property. The girls said it was also good for tiktok’s or Insta posts as it had good mirrors!

Central waterside
We had a wonderful stay at this Airbnb in Oxford. The location was perfect—just a short walk to Westgate, the train station, and several great cafes. The apartment itself was clean, stylish, and thoughtfully updated, with a pleasing aesthetic that made it feel like a true retreat. One of the highlights was the river flowing right by the property—it added such a calm, soothing touch to our stay. Highly recommend!

Snowdonia studio sleeping up to 4
Chris was an incredibly kind and welcoming host! The home had beautiful views of the mountains with space to walk by the river and picnic right on the doorstep. We managed to see a lot of snowdonia while staying, as well as many birds and cats in the garden. The space was very clean and we really appreciated the eco friendly and sustainable ways Chris and Julie have set it up. Would definitely stay again and recommend to anyone else wanting to be immersed in peace and nature!

Beautiful waterside lodge on the river bank
Peaceful riverside accommodation. Very clean and homely place to stay . Would definitely recommend you visit .

Riverside Apartment, Heart of Llangollen
We had such a lovely stay at this Airbnb! The space was clean, comfortable, and exactly as pictured. The host was welcoming and quick to respond to any questions. What truly made this stay unforgettable was the location — right beside the river. Waking up to the peaceful view of the water each morning was absolutely magical. It felt like a perfect retreat, yet still close to great cafes, restaurants, and public transport. I couldn’t have asked for a better balance of nature and convenience. Would definitely stay here again!

Stunning Seaview Loft-style Penthouse Apartment
We spent 2 nights in this apartment while visiting friends in Blackpool. The apartment is fantastic - spacious and well appointed, with the highlight being the living room which has huge windows looking out over the sea which is approximately 500 metres away. The owner sent us detailed instructions before arrival and we were asked to ring him as soon as we arrived, so that he could go through various features of the apartment with us. Overall, the communication was excellent. We would thoroughly recommend this apartment if you are planning to stay in Blackpool.

2 Bedroom Apartment In Manchester - Stretford - OT
a beautiful wee flat which was clean and comfortable and in a great location, close to all the main attractions, football stadiums shopping centre's ect with wee local shops a walking distance away. it was so peaceful and it was lovely watching all the long boats go up and down the canal out the back.

Trafford suite 1bed apartamant w/cinema room
