Christine's home is even better than the pictures convey. The bottom floor contains a beautiful kitchen, small sitting area and very nice dining area. The kitchen is very nice and fully functional; we were able to prepare a full Christmas dinner easily in the kitchen. The second floor (the entrance level) contains a large, comfortable living room with sofas and a television. The higher level floors contain three lovely bedrooms and two full bathrooms. The beds were all very comfortable! There are a lot of stairs in the home, so this could be a problem for people with mobility issues; we had no problems with the stairs. The house was just perfect for our family of four (two adults/parents and two adult children). There was plenty of room; it would easily accommodate 6 adults.
The location was perfect for us. There were multiple grocery stores that were only a 5 minute walk. The Angel tube station is only a 5 minute walk; the Kings Cross station is about a 15 minute walk, and offers many more tube line options. There is a lovely pub across the street with very good food. The street is very quiet with very little traffic. It is a very safe, family-friendly area.
Christine was a wonderful host. She provided us with a welcome bottle of wine, biscuits, coffee and milk in the refrigerator so we didn't need to immediately run to the grocery. She also provided us with so much helpful information for our stay. She responded to all of our communications very promptly. I cannot say enough about her kindness and helpfulness; she made us feel very welcome in her home and in London.
If you have the opportunity to rent Christine's home, I highly recommend it!!
