That's place is only about a five minute walk to the train station at oval. There is a co-op grocery store just a few blocks away. There are a few pleasant walking paths through the park. The apartment itself feels very secure and safe, and it was very clean. It is a pretty new apartment so in very good condition. We went into central London quite a bit and did not find this to be a tough commute. Thanks for the fresh milk and some of the special things that you left for us we enjoyed the French pressed coffee.
