Looks pretty but is ultimately unpractical.
The location is about 15 mins walk from nearest shops and 20 mins walk to the tube/subway to central London.
It’s relatively quiet and there’s a nice little garden. The house is full of character with comfy seating in the living room and a big kitchen. There’s no dining table, only bar stools around a kitchen counter.
The beds are small (narrow) and poor quality mattresses. One of the master bedrooms is beneath the roof and requires ‘sliding’ into from the front of the bed as the roof is immediately above the bed. No sitting up at night without banging your head. Another room has the single bed wedged between roof and pillars, again making for a rather claustrophobic sleeping experience.
The hot water isn’t hot until you let it run for more than 10 minutes and even then it fluctuates between cool and warm, never hot. We had to boil water with the kettle to get the water up to temperature in which to bathe our little boy.
There were no dish towels or even a dustpan which we all had to buy ourselves. There were however cupboards full of pasta and other dry goods to which we were told we could help ourselves. Shame they took up all the room for anything we wanted to put in here.
So between uncomfortable sleep, cold showers and a location that makes getting to central London a 1 hour journey, this place may have character but it simply wasn’t practical for us.
Oh, and there were several sightings of mice and big black spiders throughout our stay as well. In the kitchen and both downstairs bedrooms.
