This is a fantastic house in a great location for exploring London. The house itself was much bigger than I expected and really quiet at night, it was hard to believe we were in London. It feels really homely. The house is a short walk from train stations and bus stops, we used Oval tube station and a couple of different bus stops to explore. There is a massive Sainsbury's a 10 - 15 min walk away to stock up on groceries. Communication with Naomi was great and she provided really useful recommendations of things to do with the children and places to meet up with friends.
My only negative comment has nothing to do with the house or host, rather the mini cab company around the corner and I just wanted to warn people about it. We decided to use this local company to take us to Heathrow airport which was a mistake. The driver seemed really tired and was drifting across lanes before hitting the central curb of the Chiswick roundabout and getting a flat tyre. We then waited 20 mins for a replacement car and thankfully made it to Heathrow on time. It was just as well it was early on Sunday morning so traffic wasn't bad and we had left plenty of time. The driver of the replacement car (who was also not a great driver) then tried to charge us more than the agreed fare. We wished we had booked a black cab even if it cost more. It wasn't a great start to our long journey back to Sydney. I want to be clear that the company was NOT recommended by Naomi and is no reflection on the house or our stay. I just wanted to let other guests know to choose a different cab company.
We had a fabulous stay at Naomi's house and would definitely recommend it. If we're in London again we would love to return.
