To me Agri and Roger typify the differences between the organic airbnb experience and the somewhat sterile experience in a hotel or hostel. They positively support, generously share, and are personally involved and interested in their guests having a fabulous time in London! I love East Finchley (where they live)...it's where the Underground comes out of the dark tunnels of central London and meets the light of day...literally! I'm vegetarian but it was no problem getting meals locally...Agri and Roger had several recommendations. Also they are no newbies to London and Agri often knows what bus numbers to take in North London and where to change to get where you want to go. Roger is an avid gardener and the landscaping of the property is beautiful...the view from my room was heavenly. If I go back to London next year there is no doubt as to where I'll be staying...my only hope is that they will have room for me as I understand they are already taking bookings into the middle of next year! My experience here was 5-star...and Blenheim Lodge is definitely my "home away from home" in London :)
