We had a great time staying at Nadia's place in Chiswick. The house was incredibly clean and tidy, and Nadia was a lovely, welcoming host - she showed us everything we needed to know, but otherwise left us to do our own thing.

Her place is a little way out from the sights of central London, which meant that when we left in the morning, we were out all day. But that meant that it was more affordable than some of the more central places, and the travel to and from the apartment isn't a problem if you're happy using the Underground.
