This was our very first experience with Airbnb and I must say we are very pleased.
Communication with our host Rebecca before and during our stay has been wonderful to say the least. When we got in, we had a minor issue with the heating (we did not know how to locate and operate the boiler), but this was resolved after we reached out to Becky and she promptly responded with the instructions we needed.
The bathrooms and kitchen are nicely stocked, you only need your personal toiletries and you are good to go. The bedrooms are nicely made up and towels are provided. Rebecca also made up a baby bed for our 15 month old baby girl which was a really sweet gesture that made us feel so welcomed.
Transportation is at walkable distance. Plenty of buses and there is an overground station which makes going into central London fairly easy. Just a quick tip, before you go, check if the overground is working during your visit, we were there during christmas week and because of this, the overground was not working for the fist few days of our stay because of the holiday period, but we knew this coming in and had planned to use cab and uber service accordingly.
There are also groceries nearby in case you need to pick up anything extra and restaurants if you would rather eat out.
Overall I must say we thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and would recommend it for any family. The home is decorated lovingly and the whimsical touches made our Christmas holiday all the more special. It is indeed a beautiful home well suited families and our host Rebecca, is so nice and even just from her messages, the notes and special touches she had left for us, you can really feel the care she has not only for her home but for the guests that stay there. Thank you Becky and hope we can visit again during a different season 😀
