Hello, I’m Emma, your host — and someone who absolutely loves creating spaces with warmth, unique personality and a little touch of fun.
I host our Surrey holiday homes with the same care I bring to my work at The House Surgery. Each home has its own character, and I love helping guests find a welcoming place to settle in and enjoy their stay.
I’m naturally warm, hands-on, and a tiny bit of a perfectionist… in the nicest way! I genuinely want guests to feel welcomed, relaxed and well looked after. Whether you're here for a celebration, a peaceful escape, or a weekend of special moments with your favourite people, I’m here to make everything easy and enjoyable.
When I’m not hosting, I'm usually staging homes, styling interiors or helping others transform their spaces — it’s something I’ve done for many years and something I genuinely love. So if you ever need friendly advice or inspiration for your own home, feel free to ask.
I hope you settle in, unwind, and enjoy every magical moment of your stay.
I’m always just a call or text away whenever you need me.
Emma x
