We liked the personell atmosphere at Carmela‘s place with our 2 teenage boys. We found everything as described. We enjoyed the village Blackheath with a concert at Blackheath Hall, the bakery, shops and St Michael‘s church. There were very friendly people. Public transport was convenient. When there was a strike on the trains we walked through Greenwich Park and watched the terrific skyline of London from the place next to the London Observatory. We can advise to use Glam Cars if you need to go to London Heathrow early in the morning. It cost 75 (+5) pounds.
