Simon was really responsive and friendly. His place looked like it was recently renovated and we got the whole front of the house to ourselves, which was nice as we didn’t have to worry about disturbing him when if we came back late. The train station is 5 mins walk away, and it takes you directly to central London within half an hour (that is, if there is no train strike!!!!!). Otherwise, you may need two buses from central London, which takes around 2 hours, so it’s definitely good value for money when the railway service is good 😁
