My three grown children and I spent a wonderful Christmas and New Year in this large, warm, well-lit, clean and comfortable flat with two spacious bedrooms, a sizable kitchen and a living/dining room with a huge and very comfy couch/sofabed. It is located in West Hampstead on a very charming curved road which is completely lined on both sides with shops, supermarkets and restaurants. Waitrose, Sainsburys and Tesco’s Metro are all within two minutes’ walk, and there is an excellent butcher and several bakeries nearby. Every Saturday, there is a lovely Farmer’s Market down the road, where I got all my Christmas dinner shopping done. The underground station is 5 minutes’ walk away (it feels shorter because of the many interesting shops we pass) and there is also a very useful overground station close to the flat. Our host Paul had left many books and games for us to enjoy, and an Alexa on hand to give us music upon request. We spent many hours playing Scrabble, cooking and going out for meals in the many excellent neighbourhood restaurants. Paul was always very responsive and replied promptly to all our queries. He so kindly left us a bottle of wine, and offered to post a pair of earrings we had left behind after checking out. His thoughtfulness, and the comfort of this beautiful home away from home, made this one of our most memorable family holidays.
