“We loved the property.”
Clearly a very old building but its recent renovation had made it comfortable and practical as well as characterful. There was a good use of period pieces and pleasing colours & patterns, and the numerous mirrors helped to bring light and dimension to all the rooms. It didn’t lack anything important, maybe a couple of extra doormats and a towel rail in the kitchen, but we are happy to have stayed there without the tasteful re-design becoming too cluttered with extras.
