About Carol

I have lived in Madrid for years, working as a teacher and an editor. It's a great place to live. For ten years I lived in this flat in the Rastro. Now I have moved out of the city with my partner, with a Golden retriever and with the Westie in the photo (no longer a puppy of course, but just as affectionate!). So here is my dear Rastro flat up for rent.

Reviews for Carol's places

  • Els 5.0 06/20/2013

    We (husband, mother and I) were very happy to stay 5 nights at this charming, comfortable, amazingly well organized and equipped apartment. The view is lovely. Everything inside was what we expected it to be and more than that. It had everything anyone could ever possibly need and it was was spotlessly clean. Our hosts Carol and Jonathan had communicated with us before we arrived and had put some food in the fridge. When we arrived, Jonathan was waiting for us, he explained the workings of the apartment and went with us through a map with extensive information on attractions, restaurants, practical issues.
    We loved the area, livily and coulourful with little local shops and bars just around the corner and, most special, the Sunday morning El Rastro market on our doorstep. Also nearby is the metro, but most of the places we wanted to visit are within walking distance.
    Carol and Jonathan couldn’t be more attentive and made us feel very welcome.

    Die Wohnung hat alles, was man nach einem langen Tag zu Fuß in einer großen Stadt braucht, so dass es immer ein "nach Hause-Kommen" war. Wir waren zu zweit dort. Es gibt Schlafplätze für 4 Personen, aber dann muss man sich in Bad und Küche gut koordinieren.

    A superb location with all the facilities you could want.The cupboards were even labelled,so finding things was a breeze.
    We will definitely be staying again and recommending the apartment .

  • Robert 5.0 03/31/2012

    We were thrilled with this lovely flat. It was ideally situated within easy walking distance of the Latina metro stop and many attractions. The flat is situated on the fourth floor which is reached via a small lift.
    The flat was well equipped and very comfortable. The lounge was lovely on a morning with the sun streaming in the window.
    There is everything you could need in the kitchen and we liked that cupboards are labeled so finding things was easy. There was a washing machine with a short wash cycle which became really useful. There was even a hairdryer in the bathroom. Great flat!

    We enjoyed our recent stay in this lovely comfortable flat very much. It is in such a convenient location, within easy walking distance of the city´s museums and other sights to explore. The district is very atmospheric – wandering along the busy narrow streets, choc full of tapas bars and restaurants and old fashioned shops, is a delight. We appreciated the sunny and spacious outlook and the helpful notices about the content of cupboards and drawers, and how to work the TV. Having use of a PC with wifi access, links to online information about Madrid and a printer was a real bonus!

    Placed in one of the most typical cuarters of Madrid "La latina", this flat is just 5 minutes walking from most of the highlights from the city like Plaza Mayor. Surrounded by thousands of restaurants, cafes and nice shops, it is perfect for hanging around with friends or just having some lovely days with the family. And on sundays you can enjoy the ambient from the most famous flea market in Madrid "El rastro", something you shouldn't miss!!!

Reviews for Carol as a host

  • Els 5.0 06/20/2013

    Dear Carol and Jonathan, thank you for your hospitality. We enjoyed our stay very much. Hoping to see you in future.
    Jos & Els.

  • Marion 5.0 03/31/2013

    Die Gastgeber sind sehr, sehr umsichtig, geben zum Einstieg viele gute Tipps zur Nutzung der Wohnung und dem Besuch der Stadt. Sie haben umfangreiches Info-Material zusammengestellt und wären sogar zwischendurch ereichbar gewesen, wenn man sie gebraucht hätte.
    Very british, very friendly, very uncomplicated.

  • Marcel 5.0 06/23/2012

    sehr sympathisch gastfreundlich, viele tipps und empfehlungen für madrid wurden gestellt. wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und werden bei einem weiteren madrid-besuch sicherlich wieder kommen.

  • Nigel 5.0 06/05/2012

    A friendly and warm welcome from Carol and her husband. The whole process was very professional. Thank you for a great experience.

  • Robert 5.0 03/31/2012

    Carol met us outside as arranged and was very friendly. She showed us around and was very helpful answering any questions we had. She has provided a folder which gave us information on:- emergency contacts, local shopping and things to see and do. We had a fantastic day in El Escorial due to these recommendations which was somewhere we had not thought of going.
    The basic food items Carol provided were very thoughtful and we appreciated not having to dash out shopping as soon as we arrived.

    A kind and thoughtful host. Thank you to both Carol & Johnathan

  • Fiona 5.0 03/03/2012

    We were very impressed by our host's hospitality! She was there to meet us, to show us around the flat and point out the location of items etc. We felt that she considered us as guests in her home, insisting that we could phone her at any time if we had a problem. She had provided a helpful folder of instructions and suggestions for our stay as well as some basic supplies such as bread and milk in the fridge, and a bottle of wine on the table. A very thoughtful and much appreciated gesture!

    We hope to return – we have fond memories of our stay.

  • alejandro 5.0 02/22/2012

    Carol is such a nice woman who has averything prepared for making your holidays unforgettable. She has all the information you need about the city, even a computer where you can check the running expositions or theatre shows. And she doesn't forget about the details: library, children games, cooking products... Everything for making you feel like you are at home!!!
