Excellent home away from home esp for families with kids. Great location just 5-10 min walk to everything in Kingston. We used the commuter train from Kingston to directly connect us to central London to see sites there. We loved the short walk to the other side of the Thames to enjoy a pastoral stroll in Bushy Park with plenty of wildlife. Also visited the festive Kingston Christmas market. The house was also decorated complete with Xmas tree. We have a toddler so it was wonderful to have a pack’n’play (cot), high chair, toddler plates, and utensils there and not have to worry about those items. Duncan and Ruth are exceptional hosts. They were very responsive answering all our questions and providing additional helpful tips/advice. We highly recommend staying here if you’re in Kingston or as a home base for the Greater London area. This is the Goldilocks of Locations. It feels close enough to everything but just far enough removed from the busy city center at the same time.
