Hi Ian and Ann,
Thank you we had a wonderful time. the weather was roasting! been cold since we got back. The villa was lovely, would definately recommend it to our friends. The location was just about far enough away from Disney to relax and unwind after a hectic day. the boys really loved the pool and the games room. I think that you thought of everything when it came to comfort and convenience.
Thanks for everything, Anita, Richard, Sam and Matt Garbett. (UK) August 2010
Hi Ian & Ann,
We have just arrived home from Orlando and wanted to say how much we enjoyed our stay at the Willows, we were really impressed with the property it was superbly equipped and the Cumbrian Lakes location was excellent.
Many thanks again for letting us stay at your lovely home we will certainly recommend it to anyone we know who is looking to visit Orlando.
Regards, John & family (UK) July 2010
Hi Ann and Ian
We had a great time in Florida and were totally comfortable and at home in The Willows. It really was a lovely place to stay. You truly have a lovely home.
We must be one of the few who got lost on our way from the airport. I was driving and Den (my husband) was directing - or not. However, we had an early look at Disney World and when we eventually arrived (over an hour later) it was truly wonderful to walk into The Willows.
The location is very convenient and our grandchildren hardly came out of the pool. In fact, my granddaughter actually managed to swim properly for the first time.
The weather was good. We had 24 hours of rain on our first day and then it was very pleasant - average around 74 deg, which we found just right but which the TV referred to as low/cold. It warmed up to high 70's/ 80 when we went to Discovery Cove and also for the last few days. So,no complaints at all.
Thanks for the loan. When we revisit we will be in touch again.

Wow !
We had a lovely time at your villa. The weather was great until we left, then a storm for a morning, then great again!
Thanks for the opportunity of staying, we will pass on your details to friends, and should we return (I've only done about 22 trips now!), we'll be in contact.
Looking forward to the return of the deposit (no damage!) in due course.
Kind regards, NIck (UK 2009)

Ian and Ann,
I just wanted to say a huge thanks for the use of your villa. We had a fantastic time, weather was amazing, and it was so nice to come back from a day at the parks and relax in what felt like our own home.
I hope that we left things nice and clean and tidy for you when we left, we made every effort to.
We're not going to be back in England for a few more weeks yet, so if you want to send the security deposit by mail thats fine.
I'd like to enquire about booking for next may but will gget back to you when I have a definate date.
Thanks

Hi Ann
We had a wonderful time, I'm just back into work today and already I'm sitting saying to myself......this time last week!
The house is in probably the best location I have ever stayed for distance to all the attractions and the malls. My mum is planning a trip there this Nov/Dec time and I've given her your details for the villa. It was so close to everything and it was handy to nip round the corner to Wal-Mart if we ran out of supplies! Seth really enjoyed the pool and it was the perfect spot for cooling off for him after a hot day! We also took the "blue bible" everywhere with us for directions, they were really easy to follow. So sad to be home already but we are planning our return trip next year, so I'm sure we'll be in touch!
Thanks again for opening your home to us, so jealous wish we had one of our own!

Hi Ann and Ian.
We had a really enjoyable three weeks at your villa.It was very clean on arrival .We found everything we needed very easily .Geoff really appreciated the coffee machine as he is allergic to tea and wasn't looking forward to instant coffee for breakfast for three weeks.We also appreciated the welcome pack
.
I spent most mornings swimming in the pool .Then we went out after lunch .The villa was nicely placed for all the attractions we were visiting so we had no long drives and we didn't have to rush at anytime.
Weather was great .It didn't rain once while we were there.
Unfortunately having looked for the alligator most days we didn't see it.I did see the cranes in over the roads front garden.We came in one tea time and i thought they were very realistic ornaments until one decided to walk off.
We will be going back to Florida at sometime in the future and i would definitely like to stay in your villa again.So i think i can say we will be in touch again at some point.
Kind regards,
Julianne and Geoff

Hi Ian and Ann
I just wanted to let you know we had a great week, weather was great, your place was wonderful, it was immaculate, I have to admit I was a little bit leary about renting, I like things extremely clean, your place was spotless, comfortable and very relaxing. I was shocked at how big the living and dining room area was. We really enjoyed it, when we were there, we were mostly at the softball field, watching games.
thank you again, jane and jim (USA 2008)

Dear Ian & Ann,
We arrived back from our holiday in Florida yesterday, and I am just writing to say that we had a brilliant time. The villa is gorgeous. We were just blown away by how lovely it was and the quality of the place and the furniture, fittings & provisions. It really was like home. What was also so lovely was all the information you gave us before we left which was extremely useful, and the friendliness and thoughtfulness like the phone card etc. you sent us before we left. It was very much appreciated
