Comfy Charm in Chelsea – Thank you Kim and Trish for A Perfect Stay in London

May 2016

We had the good fortune to spend nine days in London at 45 Finborough Road in Chelsea. The apartment came highly recommended to us by friends who were there last year and we can say that the experience was perfect from beginning to end. Before our arrival Kim got in touch, but rather than a lengthy set of rules, he was requesting a grocery list so that he could pick up a few things to have in the fridge when we arrived! He met us at the flat and provided a thorough, professional, and friendly orientation to the unit and the neighborhood. It was apparent from the moment we arrived that we had landed in a beautiful, well appointed home in a great location in the city, hosted by terrific people.

The apartment is located a half-level below the street via its own staircase, providing a separate entrance. It is quiet inside and gets wonderful natural light through the windows, a skylight, and French doors opening from the bedrooms to a private and secure patio. The apartment is immaculate, everything in excellent condition. The furniture was perfect for the four of us and the beds very comfortable. The bathrooms are modern and quite nice. The kitchen was a marvel of efficiency, great appliances, and completely stocked with everything one could possibly need which brings me back to the groceries provided upon our arrival! Simply fantastic! When we finally needed to shop it was for salmon to barbeque out on the patio. This is truly a home away from home.

Chelsea/Kensington is a quiet residential area that includes good neighborhood restaurants, great shops, and pubs. The tube is about a 10 minute walk away through safe and pretty areas. We loved the neighborhood, and looked forward to returning at the end of each day. All in all the perfect place to stay in London.
