Brett was a wonderful host and his property is awesome. The flat was roomy, light, and very comfy. Public transport is within a couple of blocks to go into London or elsewhere with ease. Several tube options are available by short bus ride and there is a very nice shop for food and other items literally two houses away that sells the Oyster card that makes public transport easy to travel. There are several little town areas nearby with pubs, restaurants, bakery, food shops and more. Crouch End is quite good sized and we spent a day exploring there the first day in area. It is reached by walking over Crouch Hill and crossing over a repurposed railway line that now is a lovely walking area that covers 5k. We took advantage of the washer in the flat but there is a laundromat in Crouch End, so extended stays would be as easy as ours was. We would stay again, eagerly.
