The stay with Gareth was just perfect.
I stayed for a weekend together with my boyfriend to discover beautiful London and only thing I can say is that I will definitely come back to Gareth next time.
He gave advice for good locations, we were on the guest list on a club where he was DJ-ing, offered his house to us just saying “make yourself a home” and we knew he definitely meant it that way.
It was my first time staying in a private room while the host was living in the same house and I’m positively surprised. The communication was just as much as we’d like to, no problem that we went the nights out and came home early in the morning hours.
The offered room was perfectly clean, the heating was doing its job and could park the car in front of the house.
Oh - there is another housemate living - how could I forget! Bryn has soft fur, loves to be cuddled (especially on his tummy) and was giving us a warm and cute welcome when he met us in the house.
Underground station: maximum 5 minutes walk
Big Ben: 30 minutes walk
To summarise it - go and stay with Gareth for the best experience of London.
