Mission accomplished! We created memories for our family that will be with us always.
Sophie's lovely home and attentive and welcoming style helped create our experience. First off, this is an ideal location! You can walk or take easily accessible public transport or cabs to anywhere. Tesca (grocery store) and Whole Food within walking distance. Many restaurants nearby offering variety, as well as casual to more upscale. Kensington Gardens is a couple minute's walk and a gateway to everything.
The house was very cozy. Kids could wake up and grab some breakfast and warm up to the day watching their favorites on Netflix and chatting with their friends over Wifi. My husband could take his morning walk to the nearby Starbucks to grab his coffee. I could sleep in a bit.
Sophie's house was clean and comfortable and provided everything we needed. She was always available, if there were any issues and there were none.
We would most definitely go back!
p.s. We fell in love with a pub just around the corner called Mill Tavern. Best burger of my life (not exaggerating). Great beer recommendations for my husband from Maxie and Daniel. Tell those gents the American couple with three girls staying in the nearby flat in July 2016 sent you.
