“Comfy, cozy, clean, beautiful surrounds, and great hospitality!”
Comfy, cozy and clean. Loved that there was an electric blanket (as the weather starts to cool), & I was surprised to find a place with a comfortable mattress! Motel/hotel mattresses are always way too hard! Great hospitality from Fiona too, she gives good recommendations on what you can do around Geraldine and makes your stay feel extra special.

Fiona has crafted a small but utterly perfect studio, where she had thought so carefully about the needs of her guests. The garden surrounding the studio is ravishing and she is a kind and most thoughtful host.
