Very good communications from Catherine. She was away during my week-long stay, but Ed greeted me. Their top-floor flat has a sizable guest room with comfortable bed, view of green space and trees, is quiet for sleeping – and I saw some nice sunsets from the window. Nice to receive a small bottle of welcome wine. Guests have use of the kitchen (including space in the fridge and a microwave), washing machine and sitting room. Breakfast cereal and fruit are offered. I appreciated the good wi-fi connection.
The apartment building has a good location across the street from Brockwell Park, and it’s a five-minute walk to a big grocery store. VegBar Cafe is a block away. Short bus ride from Brixton tube station, with frequent service from three buses.
Brixton is a lively area with markets, Ms. Cupcake on Coldharbour Lane and more.
Ed was a hospitable and friendly host, and I very much enjoyed my stay.
