We enjoyed time in Antony's house. Exactly look like the picture. It's little bit fare from center, but station it's only at 10min (subway) or less by train.
I recommend this house.
I just don't recommend London for New Year, a part of the city is close (including some famous tourist place that you cannot see) for firework and if you wanna see firework, you have to pay 30-50 pounds. It's really abuse !
