Our stay was wonderful! Everything was as described. We were a large group of seven and we never felt cramped. Every room felt arranged with care and love, we had fun checking out all of the unique touches. The bathrooms were good, a lot of the pieces inside looked brand new and worked great, even with our large group we never ran out of hot water. There were places you could see the house was a work in progress (grout work in tiles needing to be filled in, old stains on a few furniture pieces) but everything was fun, functional, and clean. Eating in the sun-filled dining area (there were a lot of large windows and sky lights all over the house, so much natural light!) and walking out into the garden to pick apples for snacks was such a treat.

Our hostess Michele was fantastic! She knew we were coming in exhausted from our long journey from the U.S. and gave us recommendations on where to eat AND she left us breakfast supplies so we didn't have to worry about the next morning. She even took the time to help us figure out where to visit to research for my daughter's school assignment. We spent much of our time in London doing touristy things, the walk to the station was so close and convenient. Coming back in at night (avoiding rush hour) we never felt unsafe, the neighborhood was always quiet and peaceful. And I have to say again so super close! There is an ATM at the station, too, if you want to pull out cash, or like us, need to pull out cash because you don't have a chip in your debit card and some places won't accept it.

Would stay again in a heartbeat <3
