Together with my boyfriend I had a wonderful stay at Marlons' place. He and his family were very welcoming and easy going. We had a bedroom upstairs and a private bathroom on the ground floor which was really convenient. Both rooms were clean as well! We were allowed to make ourselves coffee or tea in the morning and have some cereals/fruit in the morning. If you like a good chat than you're at the right address with Marlon. He also recommended a great local coffee house: coffee in the woods. Every morning we went there to start our day with a nice cup of coffee. It is a family house with a young (very cute) kid so you can't be loud in the evening when you get back. For us that wasn't a problem :) Lastly, the neighborhood is in zone 3 so you could say it's not very close to central London but with the tube it's just half an hour depending on where you plan to go. London is a big city so you'll get used to that ;) Anyways, we had a lovely stay. Thank you!
