Unique ‘underground’ studio located in the garden of a larger house. In the garden steps lead down to the studio where there is an open plan living and sleeping area, a kitchenette and a separate bathroom with shower. The kitchenette has no coking facilities but there is a microwave oven if you want to heat up something. Also provided are a kettle, toaster, fridge and coffee maker. Clair provides some bread, jam, butter, fresh milk and a choice of breakfast cereals.
A heater is provided which keeps the studio cosy in the winter. Air con is provided fir the summer months.
There is no TV but there is WiFi so if you have a laptop and a Netflix account etc you can watch that.
The studio has two large skylights in the roof which are open to the garden above. There are no blinds for the skylights but there are grass mats outside you can roll over the skylights to ensure privacy (luckily I did that as children played in the garden in the morning whilst I was still in bed).
The studio is very clean and quiet. It’s a nice place to stay and not too far from Westcombe Park railway station (10 minutes from London Bridge station). If you arrive by this route you might want to bring any provisions with you as there is only a small local convenience store you pass by on the way to the studio, although I am sure there are other local facilities elsewhere nearby.
I attended an event at the O2, I walked there and back via the River Thames path, it’s a nice walk.
