Modern and convenient London bed sitter
Easy access to the West End from a pleasant and lively inner suburb provides an ideal holiday experience at this property. Northcote which surrounds Clapham Junction overground railway station, is a bustling area of shops, including up-market specialty establishments, and a couple of good pubs. Trains leave for Waterloo and Victoria stations very frequently. The bedsit in Auckland Road is well-fitted out with most of the kitchen amenities you would need in a combined sitting room and kitchen with comfortable furniture. The adjoining bedroom is spacious enough and the bed comfortable. Downstairs is a bathroom with a very good shower of modern standard European design. There is also a washing machine with combined dryer, and the wi-fi works very well.

Clean, well equipped and cosy apartment in a great location.
No.10 was perfect for our 5 day stay in London. It was close to public transit, many shops and restaurants and just a short walk to Clapham Common and Battersea. Charlotte was a great host from start to finish. She was so kind making recommendations for a variety of things. Would definitely return, and highly recommend this property.

Fantastic stay!
A charming, characterful and lovely place in a terrific neighborhood. The area is very alive and dynamic while being away from the extremely crowded parts of central London… more of an urban village. The house itself is on a nice quiet street with easy access to shops and food just around the corner. Buses & trains easily accessible. Exceptional communication with host. Highly recommend!

Family visit
Absolutely everything we had hoped for, just round the corner from Northcote Road with an abundance of cafes and restaurants nearby. Short walk to Clapham Junction to enable you to get anywhere in London. Apartment was beautiful with everything you would need for even a longer stay. Just need to be aware there a few flights of stairs to navigate to get to the Apartment, but that helped with keeping daily exercise up there. Hopefully will get chance to take advantage of this accommodation again

Amazing
My stay at Number 10 was absolutely lovely. The flat is very comfortable, tastefully decorated and perfectly equipped. The location is perfect, just a few minutes away from Clapham Junction and all the shops and pubs. Charlotte is a very reactive and caring landlady, and I would definitely recommend her lovely accommodation!

About the host

Hosted by Charlotte

Host profile image
I'm a busy professional with a creative flair. I enjoy living life to the full and making every day count. I travel a lot myself and really value attention to detail in a home from home. This is something I strive to achieve for guests in my properties and I am proud of my excellent track record as a super-host. Having had a good experience with VRBO as a guest, I have been tempted to showcase Number Ten on this platform.

Why they chose this property

Number Ten is a special place for me and I stay there myself when I am in London. I love the vibe of the Northcote Road and the direct train from Clapham Junction to central London for work, culture and socialising.

What makes this property unique

London never stands still and Number Ten offers the advantage of being easily accessible to all that the UK's capital city has to offer whilst also being situated 'between the Commons', only a few minutes walk from the tranquility of open green space.
