My daughter and I shared the Loft at The Shard flat for 9 days with Ariel, Tamen and Sharky. We left feeling as though we were part of each other's family and sad to leave.
Southwark is a lovely neighborhood, on the south side of the Thames River in a newly gentrified area with lots of restaurants, shops, parks and happenings. We loved it. When we ventured over to the main stream, we always were looking forward to our return to the quietness of Southwark. Very close to the Burough Market and Maltby Market both 5-10 minutes walking distance.
I also took in a few yoga classes at a wonderful nearby yoga studio Ariel recommended.
The apartment is lovely, contemporary in detail, and attention to everything. The suite can be private or part of the home,depending on your preference. The bed was very comfortable and the bathroom large and with a shower and tub.
We truly enjoyed the company, we cooked together and shared meals and spent our last evening on the town together.
Sharky the Whippet is an added bonus to our stay, keeping us company as well.
The apartment was immaculate, with lots of natural light and well located near the Lindon Bridge Tube.
We would highly recommend a stay with Ariel, Taman and Sharky for your London visit.
