About this property

Great space for friends and families to use as a base to explore.

Spacious three bedroom flat in a very quiet area, very central, and with all mod cons and creature comforts. Truly home from home.

With access to two of the bedrooms, front room, which is a lovely space for chillaxing, however, with so much on the doorstep such as Borough Market, The White Cube, Tower Bridge, Southbank, The Globe its likely you wont be staying in too much! There is no TV.

The flat has bedding, towels and basics in cupboard. Two bedrooms one with a king size bed. The other has a small double. In addition there is a delux blow up mattress, if you have a child or two, which seems to work well for guests. Also a sturdy cot and travel cot. There is no access to my bedroom space but I won't be around so you have the rest of the place to yourselves.

We have a great local taxi company should you need Airport transfers.

Home away from home
Great location, very quiet but still close to things. There's a nice pub nearby, 5 minutes to the tube, 15 minutes to the Burough Market. Lots of nice little touches in the flat, LOVED the towel heater!!

Great place to stay and friendly owner.
We had a nice stay. Lydia was very friendly and quick to respond when I messaged her. It’s outside the heart of London so you have to walk or transit in, but we loved that the area was less busy. Would definitely stay there again!

Perfect place to stay in London
The flat was big enough for 3 adults and a child. We had everything we needed. There are little shops and takeaways nearby. Bus and Underground connections are perfect. We can recommend this property.

Short stay but nice
Nice, great bedrooms, workable kitchen, living room, amble space, flexibility on storing bags. Just wish the photo showed the overhead shower since we didn’t know if that would be available until we asked. Outdoor space was small so not really available for use. Liked it and would stay there again, if given the opportunity.

Perfect Location
We were a group of four friends, visiting London for a get together taking in a couple of shows. It was the perfect location. A short walk to the tube made it easy for us to get to the heart of London, or when the weather was fine, we walked via Borough Market along the South Bank to the theatre. The flat was an ideal space for us all to relax together; clean, comfortable and warm with everything we needed to make ourselves at home. Communication with Lydia was excellent and she made sure we had all the information we needed to enjoy our stay. Thank you Lydia!

Very Cosy home
The house was truly a pleasure to stay in for several reasons: 1. Cosy Atmosphere: The home had a warm, welcoming vibe that made it easy to relax after long days of exploring. It felt like a home away from home, with comfortable furnishings and thoughtful touches that added to the overall experience. 2. Great Location: It was conveniently located, making it easy to access nearby attractions, shops, and bus stations. Whether we wanted to explore the city or just take a leisurely walk, everything was within reach. 3. Well-Equipped: The house had everything we needed, from a fully equipped kitchen to cozy bedding and plenty of towels. We appreciated the attention to detail in providing amenities that made our stay comfortable and stress-free. 4. Cleanliness: The space was impeccably clean and well-maintained, which made a huge difference. It felt fresh and ready for us to settle in from the moment we arrived. 5. Quiet and Peaceful: Despite being in a great location, the house was quiet and peaceful, allowing us to rest and recharge. It was the perfect place to come back to after a busy day. Overall, the house provided a perfect blend of comfort, convenience, and charm, making our stay memorable and enjoyable.

Lovely Flat
Hello, Lovely Flat. Not my style, but daughter liked the flat. No TV for morning news hour:( Black sheets on bed also not my style, as well as cow skin rug in living room. Building was over 50 years old according to maintenance man who had to repair leaking ceiling in bathroom. Flat was re-decorated at one time but not appealing to this world traveler. Front door opens to a not so pretty parking lot that is always filled. Do not plan to stay there again. Owner was pleasant. Prefer to pay a little more to be closer to downtown London. Thank you

Wärmstens zu empfehlen!
Wer nicht im grössten Touristentrubel wohnen möchte und trotzdem zu Fuss in 10-15 Minuten am Borough Market oder am der Tower Bridge sei möchte, ist super bei Lydia aufgehoben. Die Wohnung ist charmant, ruhig gelegen mit bequemen Betten! Gerne empfehlen wir diese Wohnung und kommen bestimmt woeder bei einem nächsten Besuch.

Idealer Ausgangspunkt um London zu entdecken
Wir hatten einen tollen Aufenthalt in dieser sehr schönen und gut ausgestatteten Wohnung. Zentral gelegen, vieles gut zu Fuß erreichbar, für alles andere sehr gute Verkehrsanbindung. Supermarkt mit langen Öffnungszeiten um die Ecke – ebenso ein FishΧps Laden mit üppigen Portionen. Lydia war immer sehr nett und hilfsbereit und hat auf Fragen schnell geantwortet. Für unseren nächsten London-Trip ist die Wohnung wieder unsere erste Wahl.

Tolles Apartment
Das Apartment war wirklich super und ist auch toll gelegen. Keine 10 Minuten zur U-Bahn. Auch Lydia ist wirklich super und jegliche Kommunikation lief problemlos. Unsere Koffer konnten wir, am Tag der Abreise, noch länger da lassen, weil wir erst einen Flug am Abend hatten. Würden das Apartment jederzeit wieder buchen. War alles super 😊

About the host

Host profile image
I grew up in the country, but have lived in London for over twenty years. I am a business owner, a professional lady, I have lived in the area for many years, however, my business takes me to far and distant lands. Rather than have the place empty, I like to extend the areas hospitality to guests. The area has changed exponentially and I truly believe it's the most vibrant and up and coming part of London. We have so much on our doorstep. Come see for yourselves.

Why they chose this property

Its a great space, very homely and well located. Its in a quiet, safe area with oodles on the doorstep.

What makes this property unique

It's so quiet given how central it is, and there is free parking.
