This house is what we call in South Africa as a 'digs' where there is an informal 'family' of permanent and short term lodgers. I got on well with them all and felt at home. I could call on any of them for help. I felt safe and never locked my room when I went out. I spent two days at the house to recoup and rest during my two week stay and never felt as if I was in the way. The room is a double room with a double bed, large table to work and eat off and there was a clothes drying rack which was great to hang my clothes on to dry. There was also a table to place my suitcase on. The room was clean and the bed comfortable. There was no need for a tea/coffee station in the room as the kitchen was downstairs and you will not disturb anyone when making tea/coffee at night. I ate my meals in the dining room/lounge. The house is a short walk from the Seven Sisters Underground station on the Victoria Line and an even shorter walk from the Overground. The overgound line runs very close to the back of the house but it never disturbed me when sleeping. There is a wonderful historical park on the other side with access to the canal where you can walk along the toe path and check out the longboats. There are good shops nearby to buy food/clothing/meds. The house has a washing machine, microwave, gas stove/griller/oven and plenty of pots, pans, plates, cutlery, mugs and glasses. There is plenty of time to make you own meals and you get your own allotted cupboard and fridge space. There is no TV in the house and who needs one anyway as you are not in London to watch TV! The WiFi is excellent. There are books to read and DVD's to watch. I will miss my favourite chair by the door where I always sat enjoying a cold beer and eating my meals. Thank you guys for a wonder stay.
