Staying at Lesley's home was definitely one of the highlights of our vacation through Amsterdam, Paris, Oxford and finally London. Colorful, cozy and lovely decorated, you feel at home right away. This is truly a home, not some house up for rent. Our 8yo loved the kid's room, got to explore and play with Lesley's son's toys, was amazed to find another Harry Potter fan :)
The neighborhood is great, with a huge, beautiful park just two blocks away, bike rental around the corner, and buses to everywhere a short walk away. A small but quite complete supermarket is also very close, so we enjoyed meals in-house as we rested from the long days of exploring London.
Lesley was super flexible with the initial reservation (I had to make a change along the way) and also our check-out. She was very responsive all the time, answering questions in real-time, even though she was also on vacation! Her neighbor was our direct contact and he was awesome too.
It was the perfect place for our vacation farewell. Highly recommended!
