Ali's place was comfortable and private, being the garden house that is separated from the main house. Ali met us and made sure we had everything we needed. Unfortunately our schedules did not permit us to spend more time together which we would have enjoyed as she was very pleasant. We were out each day and did not return until later in the evening and each day Ali had turned on the lights and heat for us, making it quite comfortable when we did get in. The neighborhood requires a resident sticker for on-the-street parking, but Ali let us park in her carport so that was not a problem for us. It was an easy walk to the train and then a half hour into Waterloo Station in London. The kitchen facilities consisted of a microwave, a water heater and a small refrigerator, together with some china and flatware, which were adequate for our needs, and Ali provided some rolls for breakfast, tea (even herbal tea when she learned we don't drink green tea) and milk. The bed is a convertible sofa and was very comfortable. Heathrow was about a half hour away by car. We would recommend this to anyone looking for a place outside of, but convenient to, London.
