The location of this charming flat with its own entrance was perfect for us. We lived in London for 22 years before moving to California and wanted somewhere quiet and away from the hustle and bustle of city life. The surrounding area with its local park, independent shops, lovely old pubs and great eateries is not to be missed. Chalk Farm tube station nearby is perfect for getting into the city and if you have friends in London the flat is perfect for entertaining guests.
About the flat: it feels like you are living in a friend’s home and not a sterile Airbnb. There are many interesting books and military pictures/maps on the walls to keep you entertained for hours (if that’s your thing). The kitchen is well-stocked and the separate bathrooms are great if you have another couple or friends staying with you. We found it way better than staying in a hotel, as having so many separate rooms meant that you could read in peace, the kids could watch TV or someone could make work calls (wifi is good) without disturbing each other. There are signs of wear and tear but for us that was part of the charm of the place, especially as it reminded me of my student digs in nearby Kentish Town during the late 90s and early 00s.
As a family, this will be our go to place in London from now on as it’s a real gem of a find. Also, how funny to see the same actors, comedians and musicians walking in Primrose Hill as I used to see ten years ago when living in Camden. London never changes and that’s what we love about it! Thanks for listing it on Airbnb Erris.
