Super fast fibre throughout. 1 space for a standard size car on the driveway (please let me know if this will be needed) NOTE; I do not have any live tv services, only streaming services such as Netflix and Prime Video and do not hold a tv licence as a result. The area: Located within walking distance of the beautiful Coate Water park, based in a highly respected area in South Swindon you’re well located to get around Swindon, with Old Town and its various shops restaurants and bars just a few minutes drive away, and just a few minutes further gets you to the popular Designer Outlet, or if you fancy a trip out of town the train station (which gets you to London Paddington in under an hour). There are numerous locations in and around Swindon for lovely walks if you’re the outdoors type.

Tom was always available to assist. I absolutely adored his cat, Minxie. She showered me with so much affection. She was my shadow and cuddle companion while we enjoyed Netflix. She has this thing she does when she stands on her hind legs and claps, absolutely priceless. I honestly did not stray far from the house because it had all the comforts I needed. The home was stylish and new. It had beautiful natural lighting, a cozy theatre style living room, a private office, and a comfortable queen bed. I had no complaints it exceeded my expectations. The beauty of nature trails and a nearby lake of swans at Coate Water Park were the highlight of my stay. I had ease of transportation with several busses to take me to city central. The railway station provides connects to Bath and Paddington station. Thank you, Tom, for making my first experience in the UK 🇬🇧 so memorable.
