This is my go-to spot when staying in London! Not only is the flat gorgeous, but it is clean, cared for, and quiet. Jane is a fantastic host and always makes sure you have what you need, is courteous and funny but also gives you plenty of space to unwind. Dilly (the Wheaten terrier) is super sweet and will gladly enjoy any petting you wish to give her.

The location is great and transport to central London and other fun neighborhoods is a breeze via the Hampstead Heath Overground (3 minute walk), Belsize Park tube for the Northern Line (8 minute walk), as well as my personal favorites, the 24 bus (for Tottenham Court Road, Soho, Leichester Square, Trafalger Square, Westminster and Victoria) and 168 bus (for Holborn and Waterloo station). The Heath and immediate surrounding area are beautiful and it is a lovely walk to Primrose Hill, Camden, Highgate Cemetery and Kenwood House. Plus, if you are visiting in the summer, the swimming ponds of the Heath are a fantastic way to cool off!

For those concerned, the bed is SUPER comfortable and there are plenty of fresh towels. The washroom is always very clean and essentially your own given that Jane has an en suite. The flat is on the top floor of a building, so there are no neighbors stomping around above (plus you wake up to a full view of treetops on the Heath). I have lived and stayed in several places around London, and this is by far my favorite spot!
