What a wonderful experience staying with the caring hosts and art lovers Alex and Arthur in their lovely, charming and oasis-like home filled with a blend of old and new pieces scattered around in a laid-back manner.
Both were very helpful and attentive (but not intrusive at all) providing me with lots of advice and information. Particularly I enjoyed our insightful conversations. They definitely contributed to making my stay an outstanding experience!
The bedroom is small but well furnished, equipped with a cosy bed, a fitted cupboard, and a separate private bath room right next to it. The common areas of living, dining, and kitchen are bright and airy, offering an enchanting view through a huge sliding door onto the private, greened patio. What a bliss to look at while having breakfast!
The help-yourself breakfast offers cereals, eggs, a choice of breads and jams, as well as coffee and / or tea, exactly what I like. The kitchen and its equipment could also be used for other light meals / snacks to prepare. But there is also a lovely square nearby offering a great variety of good restaurants, cafés and bakery / patisserie.
The place is well connected by 2 buses which take you to so many places even without the need to change, or deliver you right to the steps of an Undergound to continue the journey.
And lastly, don´t forget about Lottie, the cutest Lucas terrier I´ve ever met!
Staying at Alex's is definitely the right place to escape after a day of exploration of the hustling and bustling London! I hope to be back soon!
