After a long and uncomfortable flight, arriving at Shane's was a delight; we were greeted with a warm welcome, a restorative cuppa, and a delicious home-cooked breakfast.

Shane is a tremendous host. Despite being sick with a cold and busy with work, he was always available to answer our multitude of questions or just have a chat over a beer or cup of tea. He even lent us his bikes for a jaunt down to the nearby Victoria Park and Broadway Market.

Having just moved to London from Australia and gone through all the stress that entails, I can't imagine beginning our time here anywhere else. Shane is a credit to the AirBnB scheme and we cannot recommend him highly enough.
