As ( now ex ) Londoners of 20 years duration We lived in crouch end for 10 years and although we are biased - of all the places to live in London, Crouch end is the absolute best. It’s a village within a city. It’s posh but has character with handsome terraces and lots of trees. You have huge green spaces and woods nearby, amazing eateries , Quick travel connections and the 91 bus is basically tourist heaven as it goes into Trafalgar Square from Crouch end. Crouch end also has 2 cinemas , an outside lido and alexandra palace nearby ( with a huge Iceskating rink). If you want primark etc then Wood Green shopping centre is a few stops on the 41 bus the other way.
The flat is in a great location - quiet but near the high street. It’s very large with a huge lounge - very well stocked bookcase , nice kitchen and 2 double bedrooms. Lovely pictures and ornaments , homely feel. The flat is across the first and second floor of an old ( probably ) Victorian house. Beds are very comfortable with good bedding.
We found John and Sue to be great hosts , very thoughtful , hospitable.
All in all I highly recommend it!
