Andrew & his wife, Isabella, were delightful hosts and we very much enjoyed our stay with them. The house is full of antiques and Andrew's description of 'bohemian' is certainly accurate with the overall effect being fascinating.
The house was situated in a safe area with good transport connections, both by rail and bus, within easy walking distance with lively Crystal Palace about 15 minutes on foot or 2/3 minutes from the bus stop about 250 metres away. We walked back regularly to the house at night without ever feeling under threat.
Both Andrew and Isabella have led interesting lives which are unusual by most people's experiences and we enjoyed our conversations during the excellent continental breakfasts provided.
The features of the house reflect their experiences and individual interests and create an end product which perhaps cannot be classified as conventionally tidy or orderly but which nevertheless left us with a dramatically impressive impression.
The cleanliness of the bedroom and bathroom were of the highest order and the bed extremely comfortable. It was also very much appreciated that Andrew offered us exclusive use of one of the two bathrooms.
As may be gathered from this review, our stay was thoroughly enjoyable with Andrew and Isabella's warm hospitality being the strongest factor for this.
