Caroline,her family & dogs, were very welcoming & considerate.As stated it’s a double room with excellent shower & toilet & own fridge just along the hall.Busy family home situated on a main road where the traffic could be heard both day & night,even without the windows open. I did get used to it though.Priced In accordance to lack of digs locally.Free parking.Great WiFi.Easy & safe 15 minute walk to the theatre.Accommodating with extra blankets & heater for chilly nights.

Thanks for the review Tasha! It was lovely to host you. First time the traffic has been mentioned in a review and I think the various roadworks along our road currently meant more traffic noise than usual. Last time I checked, we offer the cheapest digs in Aylesbury on this site and are always trying to encourage friends to host as we love meeting everyone and realise that the options are limited in Aylesbury. Have a great rest of your tour! Thanks, Catherine
Friendly hosts and a lovely room! Easy walk to the theatre, would happily recommend!
