    Convenient, comfortable, fabulous location to underground line, Tottenham stadium with shuttle bus close to a great local pub, anything you could require of an accommodation was there and more. Plus Ian had beautiful supplies in as always which made our stay more outstanding.

    I would say the double bed had two single duvets which isn’t ideal but no way a dealbreaker or anything major. Wouldn’t stop me from going again at all.

    The property was so nicely decorated with more than everything we needed for our weekend stay. Everything was lovely and clean. We were left a lot of different breakfast food options and snacks as well. We were also given a bottle of gin from the distillery and ingredients with a recipe to make a cocktail which my partner and I thought was super thoughtful and a lovely touch!

    Would have preferred a bathroom upstairs, but it was only a mild inconvenience.

    The property was very clean and well maintained. The host had left us plenty of provisions that were most welcome, including a bottle of gin made next door. We both liked the theme of the decoration. Excellent value for money.

    Ian’s place was quirky and fun. Comfortable for a couple with everything we needed for our stay plus more. Ian provided eggs, bacon, croissants and good coffee. The flat is close to bus and tube. We loved our stay here. He also has a wealth of information about London in books at the property and gave us great recommendations on local restaurants.

    Fantastic cosy place.... communication is great up to your stay. On arrival we entered a fresh smelling clean room, with a great seating area, dining table and kitchen. Bathroom is down stairs, bedroom upstairs. Amazing shower, loads of towels etc... In the fridge was milk juice bacon and eggs, a loaf and croissants on the counter... such a wonderful touch, made us feel at home instantly. We didn't use local transport, so unsure how far the tube is... but looking at a map, a few pubs and such like not too far away. Thank you again... recommended

    Liked everything but a bin for recycling would be an added bonus.

    Spacious, comfortable & beautifully decorated property in a good & quiet area- very convenient for the Piccadilly Line too. Everything you could possibly need was provided. Very generous amount of breakfast foods available for the whole stay (& sausages for the BBQ in the freezer ) & the delicious gin was a real bonus! Would definitely stay again!

    For the first couple of days I felt like downstairs it was a bit cold, especially in the bathroom. In the bedroom upstairs however, the temperature was perfect.

    I chose this place because we were going to a show at Alexandra Palace (which is around 30 minutes away on foot) and it turned out to be the best accommodation I've had in London. It's very comfortable, and the kitchen is well equipped with everything we needed to cook our own meals. They offer a complimentary bottle of gin (which is great!), as well as a few other things, such as milk, coffee, bread, eggs, croissants and bacon. Wifi is working great and the location is nice and quiet (10 minutes away on foot from a tube station, a bus station is only a couple of minutes away). Our hosts were very nice and welcoming, I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

Easy instructions on checking in, and everything you could need this place had! Bacon, bread, milk and even a bottle of gin left for us which was very nice! Location is good, 10 min walk to underground, 10/10 stay we will definitely use again

    Whilst it is difficult to cater for everyone which is completely understood, we did find the pillows were a softness we were not used to, just personal preference

    We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We arrived and easily found the key lock box, having been supplied the code a couple of days before from the owner. Kitchen was very clean and tidy with lots of groceries, including Bacon, Milk, Butter, Eggs, Biscuits etc etc... There was air conditioning which also doubles up as a heater should you need it. TV downstairs and upstairs with netflix. We were a little worried about possible noise from surrounding roads - we experienced nothing but silence during the night. The owners have thought of everything and the décor is very fitting to the location.
