Tash's welcome was outstanding: she was very welcoming in communicating with us in advance, everything in the house was as described, there was milk, fruit, bread, orange juice etc. for us, and a very clear and comprehensive instruction manual. The house itself is charming, with great character, and so interesting that you could spend hours just walking around, looking, reading etc. Interesting houses reflect interesting owners! The house is very clean, cosy, easy to live in, with all the mod cons you need. In warm weather the little outdoor courtyard area is gorgeous.
The neighbourhood is Bohemian, unique, diverse, with loads of very different places to eat, drink, shop (you're spoilt for choice) and we felt very safe there. For us the house was a base while we were in London for my daughter's wedding in Kentish Town but for anyone wanting a place to stay for a 'touristy' visit to London, the house is ideally placed for easy access into London via tube or bus while being tucked away from the noise of the nearby main road.
Tash's expertise and concern as a host were very clearly displayed while we were staying in her house. The weather was warm and a neighbour unfortunately kept his window wide open while playing loud music in the evening but Tash went to great pains from a distance to sort out the problem and managed to resolve it. Her communication with us in the process was outstanding.
I'd very definitely stay in this house again and recommend it highly.
