This was one of the nicest flats I ever stayed in. It is not close to the city centre but it has excellent public transport connections. There are two train stations nearby and the bus virtually stops in front of the flat and it takes you right to Whitehall. The place was spotless, tidy and very cosy. Tom has great taste for decorating. He was not around but responded very quickly to messages. We also enjoyed Herne Hill itself, it has pubs, restaurants (we liked the Thai!) and supermarkets. From the flat you can also walk to nearby Dulwich, which has a real "village feel" and the famous Dulwich Picture Gallery (starring old Flemish and Dutch masters like Rubens and Rembrandt, amongst others. And a great café.) I have thought long and hard to find a point of criticism but I cannot find any. I would definitely recommend this place.
