From 9 to 12 May 2008 we had such a
pleasant stay in your house. It was like vacation on a little island. The
garden room was exactly what we needed to escape from stressy everyday life.
So again thanks a lot for your friendly hospitality!

I am back at work today plugging away and famished! Why? No breakfast. What
a wonderful time and house you manage. Your service and suggestions made a
new traveller happy, confident and content. May you continue to be
prosperous and your business grow!
With many thanks,

Hi Frances and Vic,
I remember with great pleasure our stay with you in May (2 weeks) and late
June (2 days) this year. Your home and your friendship were a great find for
us. Alysea, Bev and I (Bronwyn) travelled together from Australia to the
“Mind, Body, Spirit Exhibition” in London from 23 – 28 May. We shared a
triple room on the top floor for our first stay and subsequently a twin
garden room for Alysea and Bev and I had a beautiful top floor room when we
returned prior to flying back to Perth in Western Australia on 21st June.
Your hospitality was so welcoming, your facilities were wonderful, your
cooking was fantastic and your home was very comfortable and inviting. Thank
you once again, we appreciated you so very much.
Recently travelled to Busselton in the south west of Western Australia and
stayed at a wonderful B & B called the “Jacaranda Guest House” run by Toni
and Chris Otte. They are hoping to tour UK and Europe on a fact finding trip
for their business in June 2008. I have thoroughly recommended your
establishment to them and know they would enjoy your hospitality.
They have your website and contact information.
Have a wonderful Christmas and New Year. Thank you once again Frances.
Best Wishes,
Bronwyn Kealley
Western Australia

Dear Frances,
Thank you so much for your fine English hospitality.
We apologize for not using the food you left out on the
day of our exit. Our alarm went off late and we had
ten minutes to get ready for the cab. Talk about cutting
it close! We really enjoyed our time in London and your
B&B was a wonderful place to crash at after long-busy
days in the city. Thanks again for your kindness and
hospitality. It was greatly appreciated.

Hello Frances and Vic,
Thank you so much for your hospitality!
When we come back to London, we will definitely
stay with you again. The breakfast was wonderful
and the room was very cozy. We also really appreciated
your assistance with getting around - your directions to
the motorway came in very handy!
We will also recommend you to all our friends and relatives!
Sincerely,

Wednesday, 18th of May, 2005 Thank
you for being a lovely part of our trip to London.
Several things come to mind when we reflect on our
time with you:
- Location was great - just a few minutes walk
from
the Penge East train station, and then
by train not
long into London
- size of the room was nice - larger than the
room
in our friends' apartment
- superb breakfast - it held us into the afternoon,
and what a nice variety! We also enjoyed the
international flavour of your guests
- cleanliness - everything was spotless
- bathroom - though it wasn't ensuite and
it was across the hall, it was just fine and
HUGE. We felt very pampered
- tea tray - this was an unexpected pleasure
to have in our room, complete with a full
biscuit tin!
All in all, it was a wonderful place to stay and we
would highly
recommend it!
Thank you again!

Much as we love children, we find
that Melrose House
is not suitable for very young
children.
