The host family was incredibly welcoming. Simon made us a cup of tea upon arrival and even hand-drew a map for us, recommending wonderful little places and restaurants to visit. And what a lovely house in a lively neighbourhood! We felt very comfortable and welcome here. As a send off we got to taste freshly baked raisin bread in the morning. Yum! We highly recommend staying with Katie and Simon and will gladly return on our next visit to London. Thank you for opening your beautiful home to us, Katie and Simon!
