I had a wonderful stay in this lovely flat. Marie made me feel very welcome and helped orient me to the neighborhood and recommended things to do in see in this beautiful neighborhood next to Hampstead Heath. The location is ideal, the the flat is comfortable and stylish and with everything you need from excellent cookware to a washer/dryer to comfortable beds and nice linens to a great music collection. I only wish I could have stayed longer!The neighborhood is perfect. There is a friendly pub on the corner (the Garden Gate), easy transport via overground, underground and buses, nice shops, cafes and bakeries, etc. I was staying for a 5 weeks and wanted everything close by (dry cleaning, supermarket, etc) and this location was ideal. At the same time, the neighborhood is quiet and peaceful. Best of all, the amazing Hampstead Heath is just a short walk up the hill past George Orwell's former residence. I spent a lot of time walking on the Heath, swimming in the bracingly cold bathing ponds (cold, but not as cold as the Oregon Coast or Lake Superior), visiting Kenwood House and enjoying the view of London from Parliament Hill. I cannot recommend this place highly enough. Thank you Marie for letting me stay at your beautiful home!
