Ivan and Mary were great hosts, very helpful, and their home is fantastic...full of character! It is a large home with a beautiful garden on a gorgeous North London street. I hardly saw them as the house is on many floors, and I was out and about most of the time, but they were available as and when needed i.e. to answer questions etc - very nice friendly people.
The big bedroom, with bathroom, is on the 2nd floor - I had the whole floor to myself so it was very private and the view out to the garden is quite special. It is very reasonably priced - just a nice big bedroom with ensuite in a lovely period home, which was just what I needed for my stay in London as I was out and about every day exploring.
You are very close to Canonbury overground station, just a couple of minutes stroll, so very well connected to central London and very close to pretty Newington Green with lots of cafes and great restaurants. Can't recommend the area enough.
