A very comfortable home- a few minor items that could be improved- lighting method for stove and oven. Showers and hot water were excellent!

Liked: Cleanliness
We had a very enjoyable stay at Zarza House. Very clean with good outdoor space. It was a great base to visit Harry Potter Studios and only 25 mins into London on the train. Lots of places to eat at the Galleria - less than 10 mins walk away.

Christmas

We had a good stay at this property for the Christmas holiday. Easy check in, with free parking. Communication with the host was good, was able to accommodate our extra needs. We had some difficulty unlocking the bedroom door after locking ourselves in. Had some difficulty with the cooker and oven but communication with the host had everything resolved and got our Christmas dinner cooking perfectly. Property could’ve been a bit cleaner in areas but overall a good stay and everyone enjoyed this space
