Georgia was a great help with our boys, they really enjoyed her company. Georgia was also a great help around the house, helping me with laundry, tidying and cleaning up after the boys.
Thank you Georgia, you were awesome :thumbsup:

I had a great 5 days with Suzy, Hamish, and their 3 boys. The work was all doable - mostly helping with the boys before and after school + laundry and occasional tidying (so all easy and enjoyable work to do)! Suzy was very accomodating to my vegan diet, and I had the afternoons off to relax which was always nice. Staying with Suzy and her family… read more

I definitely can just recommend them as a host if you’re looking for a cozy home with 3 lovely dogs and kids and a lot cups of tea!! I will miss you… read more

Beautiful family ! I spent more than 3 weeks with Suzy and Hamish, It was a real pleasure.
They are nice and thoughtful, the boys are very funny and Suzy is an amazing cooker ! You can ride suzy's horse and they always ask you when they're going out. You can relax frequently and the sea is about 15min by walk from the house.

We absolutely loved to stay with Suzy's family and to meet her three little boys! We spent 8 days with them (longer than we originally planned :) ). There was lots to do with the boys and in the house but we had so much fun with them, that it was not so hard. (We even got self-made lavender soap from George, which was reeeally good!).

We spent three very nice days with Suzy's family helping her around the house and with the kids and pets.
