Just returned from a fabulous trip to London, my first trip to Europe from the US. Gill could not have been a better hostess -- clean and beautifully appointed flat, awakening to a lovely garden every day, help with my itinerary, and definitely a kindred spirit. When I see the photos of the flat, I'm nostalgic for my second home. As Londoners would say, "quiet brilliance." The best part of my London stay, and absolutely the best value for your dollar.
