We travel a lot. One of our best adventures ever centered around a flat in the Borough of Islington, City of London. This is Sophie's London home and we were fortunate enough to rent it while she was traveling out of country.

This wonderful place put us a 10 minute walk from a Picadilly Line Tube station. That station connected to Heathrow, to train service to Scotland, and the continent if you can tear yourself away from the wonders of the UK. With at most one train change it also took us to pretty much all of the must see sights in London. We are self caterer types and we found the local markets and shops provided all that we needed to keep ourselves fed. Sophie's kitchen is well equiped with all of the basics one needs to cook for yourself. If you are a serious cook you already know that you should bring a good knife or two with you.

The flat is exactly as described in Sophie's write up and pictures. It is clean and devoid of clutter. The place is easy to settle in to and easy to keep clean. We wish that all of our vacation rentals were as easy to live within.
And then there is Sophie herself. She is positive, outgoing, energetic, and for want of a better term “bubbly.” Communications are accurate and reasonably timely. She worked with us on arrival and departure timing and provided us with some very helpful suggestions on find provisions that we might need and some “insider” suggestions for pub and dining adventures. Were continents and oceans not separating us we would hopefully become friends.

If you can book this flat you will not be disappointed.
