This is fantastic flat - classic current London style, modern but with oozing period features still preserved. The street is a beautiful curving sweep of big victorian houses, which is unusual for london and also delightful. The area is quiet, and on first glance may appear isolated, but if you look closely there are sneaky and quick back-ways to Blackheath and to Greenwich, and between Lewisham and these there is much to do and many transport links within easy walking distance. The heath and Greenwich park are not to be underestimated for their beauty - such big an safe space is super-rare within inner London.

Sophie welcomed us with a big smile and was cheerfully flexible to our requests, and considerate of our long travels prior to arriving, in small but highly appreciated ways.

This flat may seem a little out of the way, but it and its host are both gems all round and a fantastic base for the London Adventurer not afraid of hoofing it.
