"I highly recommend Little Eaton. It is a complete home from home. It has everything you need, spotlessly clean, in a great location and Zach is a very attentive host. 4 of us stayed comfortably here, the courtyard garden and parking space right next to the house are both an absolute bonus. We can't wait to stay here again next year. Thank you so very much Zach"
