We simply could not have enjoyed our London experience more, and a large part was due to Gray's beautiful apartment. It's as gorgeous as the photos show, dramatic and comfortable at the same time. We found the location and nearby tube station to be very convenient.

What really started our visit on a high note was signing up to both "experiences" Gray offers: a home-cooked meal and tour of London.

We chose our arrival night for the dinner and it was the perfect stress-free way to begin a vacation. Gray reviewed the house details and we unpacked, while Gray's housekeeper/cook Tsitsi (Stella's mother) created the dinner of our choice: roast beef with Yorkshire pudding, carrots, parsnips, a crisp salad and apple crumble for dessert. Truly delicious and a great way to settle into the apartment.

We scheduled our London walking tour with Gray on our second day to glean as much knowledge, and that worked out beautifully. Gray is so knowledgeable on a range of topics - art, history, architecture for starters - that I believe he could create a "tour" on a range of themes.

We had the most delightful day with Gray and even though we had just met, it felt like a day spent with an old friend. We walked, took the Tube and London buses to a wide range of sites within the theme we requested. He must have been that cool professor whose class everyone always wanted. All the things he had to share were fascinating, but he also listened to our comments and reactions, so the day was a true two-way conversation, just wonderful. Highly recommend a walking tour with Gray!

This trip to London for my husband and I
was at the end of a long 2 years of family illness and sadness. We could not have had a more restorative vacation, and we appreciate Gray's gracious personal welcome and home so much.
