Glasgow house
The house is in an estate. It didn't look like the best part of the city but was close to the park and within walking distance of the city centre.
The house was neat and clean but the kitchen could have been better equipped.

The flat offers basic necessities. The apartment complex overall is home to culturally diverse families, many with young children. Unfortunately the grounds overall are not well kept. Like many urban locations, there is some litter on the complex's grounds.
The flat was quiet, easy to access and comfortable overall. Kitchen knives need sharpening and selected pots need replacement. Instructions for a complicated and sub optimal TV needed.
Owners are responsive.

Warm and cosy after each day’s Christmas shopping. Thank you Jacqui.
This property was perfect for our needs. At the end of each day out it was lovely to get back to a warm, cosy and comfortable house, with space for the little one.
The beds were comfortable, the kitchen was equipped well for our stay and needs, plenty of towels and it was quiet. A designated parking space is one of the main reasons we chose this property. A five minute walk to the station with, regular trains, the next stop you’re in the centre of Glasgow.
For us there was only one minor niggle. There wasn’t enough hot water to bath the little one but we managed in the shower, we’ve done it before. I am certain that if I had asked Jacqui she would have sorted it because, this is one really helpful, understanding and attentive lady and she is quick to respond to messages.
We would stay again
