Perfect location for a London stay
Our second stay at this delightful Islington property. Minutes away from the Regency Canal, quiet road, close to all amenities. A home from home for a few days in London.

Excellent Location for Family or Group
My husband and I stayed here with our three sons. Loved the location and walking along the canal to the tube station. When in the mood for a longer walk, we could reach a great number of sights on foot. Owners were easy to reach. We would definitely stay here again.

Property was great, perfect for our family. Location was perfect, quiet. Location was great, tubes and buses close by, loads of eateries etc. I can only say it was 5 star.

Fabulous location. Peaceful yet only a few tube stops away from London! The house is great: especially the basement floor. We had a wonderful time and would definitely return! Missing it already .

Great place for a longer stay
I really enjoyed staying here. There was plenty of space for myself and two friends. The location was really lovely; the canal is super fun to walk along. It’s a little far from the Tube station (maybe 15+ min?) but there are a couple bus stations that are closer to a 5 min walk. The bedroom with an attached bath is pretty small; it’s very nice, but might be difficult for more than one person to fit everything. Overall this was a great place to stay!

Renting rough in Islington
Perfect location, loved being on the canal, and our property owner was helpful and responsive. Beds, heating and hot water were fine. Applicances were querky but functioned. However, the place desparately needs a refresh. The living room fireplace in the picture didn't function and the furniture needs replacing; the kitchen drawers were not clean and the kitchen chairs were wobbly. Garden needed tending to but was charaming otherwise.

Perfect for our family with a wonderful setting and host
The 3 of us were here for over two weeks, so we needed lots of space, handy food, and a nice neighborhood. This house absolutely fit the bill. A quiet spot just a block from walks along the canal, a grocery just a block away, the choices of the Angel "superstores" a 10 minute walk away. The street is double wide, so air and sun abundant. We really liked having 3 separate floors so we could be together in the oversize kitchen/dining room or in the equally spacious living room/study. But also time apart in separate floors and bedrooms, The sweet garden view gave nice air as well. Our hosts were on top of every question we had, and restaurant delivery suggestions and options were plentiful when we didn't want to cook. We really felt like locals in London, rather than just tourists.

Wonderful Stay
Our family of five - two adults and three tween/teens stayed for 6 nights and had a fabulous time. The location is great - Short walk along the lovely canal to the metro. Kitchen was well stocked and the house had plenty of room for us. The bed was a bit small (we are tall people), but it worked. We had a fantastic vacation. Diane was wonderful to work with leading up to our visit.

The house is large and has everything needed. Shabby chic in parts but makes for relaxing stay. Parking outside was perfect for us ( no charges Sundays and Bank Holidays). Hope to return.

Lovely home, great location
We so enjoyed our stay; house was welcoming and well equipped - the photo of the blackened fireplace doesn't do it justice. The location near the canal was perfect. Our grandchildren loved getting to the tube via a canal full of interesting houseboats.

Great deal. Great location
4 adults stayed in this very nice traditional London home. The neighborhood was perfect and located close to the bus line that took us to the tube stations in the area. 3 bedroom 2 bathrooms worked just fine for us. Ms. Howard was responsive and very easy to work with.

Quaint townhouse
We enjoyed our stay and felt the house was adequate for our needs. It’s in a convenient area of London and taking the tube to all the attractions we wanted to see was very easy. Our only concern was the house was not very clean. I notified the owner and she offered to have the cleaner come back but I declined I did not want this person there if we weren’t. I myself did some cleaning in the kitchens and bathrooms to meet my satisfaction. Also they do not supply face cloths or hand towels which I thought was strange but maybe that is not the British way. Other than that it was comfortable and provided a place to rest after a full day of walking and exploring. I would recommend this property

great location, comfortable accommodations
Everything about this rental property is excellent. The location in Islington near the canal was wonderful. It is conveniently near restaurants and shopping. Guests are encouraged to use all the facilities including laundry. The owner was prompt in answering any questions and indeed anticipates most questions in her information. The kitchen is excellent; the bedrooms comfortable. Highly recommended all around.

Great Location
This is a fabulous location! Nice to walk along the canal and short walks to tube, restaurants, pubs, bakery, butcher, markets, etc. The property owner was great to work with. Our only complaint was that there was laundry in both the washer and dryer when we arrived and as we had planned on doing laundry there (we were on the road for 2 weeks by that point) it was a bit of a hassle as we didn't know what to do with the wet laundry. The owner was apologetic and said she'd arrange for someone to pick it up.

Lovely property to stay, in a great location in Islington.
Glad we found this great place to stay for our weekend away in London. Bedrooms were all clean and towels provided for our stay. Lovely social spaces in two areas of the House - living room and kitchen/dining room area. Three bedrooms, with a lovely front bedroom over looking the main road. Property owner was very welcoming and kept in contact via email, to answer any questions before and during our stay. I was impressed with the support to advise us on the local area, and information about the property arrived in plenty of time to organise our weekend. The welcoming touches, such as the flowers and bottle of wine was also a nice thought. I would recommend this property for its location in Islington, only a short taxi from Liverpool st station.
