We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Chris' place. It is close to the hustle of the city so you can enjoy all that the London area has to offer, but just far enough away that you can enjoy a quiet respite in a relaxed neighborhood and unwind in the evenings (both inside and outside). The train station is a 10-15min walk away, but you go past multiple stores, restaurants, and coffee shops on the way so you can fuel up for the day. There are multiple bus stops in the area too if you prefer to use them. Grocery stores, restaurants, etc. are just a couple streets over so you can get everything you need to take advantage of the kitchen. We had plenty of room for my wife, myself, and our 3 teen/pre-teen children to relax and sleep. It was very easy to make our way anywhere around London from here and enjoy our stay. Chris and Jay were awesome with communication. We did have an issue with the washing machine, but as soon as I messaged Jay she called and helped get things figured out immediately. We look forward to staying here again on future trips.
