Gitte was a super host: warm and welcoming. And she offers a charming room in a lovely little house.
It was wonderful waking up to the sound of birdsong plus Gitte rapping on the door, heralding the arrival of a cafetière of freshly brewed coffee.
When I booked, I was concerned the area might be a bit dead, but — though it's not central London — it has plenty of great little places for dinner or drinks. Gitte was kind enough to supply a list of her favorites. Meza was a particular star.
I suspect this place is going to be booked up a lot, but if you get the chance and don't mind being a bit off the beaten track, snap it up.
