Highly recommended.

Fascinating period property in a quiet location 5 minutes walk to Vauxhall underground. Quirky layout which the children loved. The adults enjoyed relaxing on the terrace in the evening. Well equipped kitchen and supermarket nearby made self-catering an easy option. We loved it!

Most beautiful home

This really felt like home! It was conveniently close/far from London's mess and its attractions. It is so beautifully furnished and there's some really interesting art on the walls. Super sunny and very welcoming.

Charmantes Haus in schöner Gegend

Ein schönes, mit viel Liebe zu alten Details hergerichtetes Haus in einer angenehmen Wohngegend. Die Vehrkehrsanbindung ist gut - Regionalbahn, Bus und Subway. Zu Fuß an der Themse entlang benötigt man ins Westend ca. 40 Minuten, ein Supermarkt (Tesco) ist ganz in der Nähe. Die Betten auf den Hochetagen fanden wir bequem, die Schlafsofas sind etwas hart. Wir wurden sehr nett empfangen, war alles ganz unkompliziert. Der Pub „The Black Dog“ hat sehr gutes Essen.

Almost perfect

I loved the house it was beautiful, unique, spacious filled with amazing touches from the Victorian era just truly like no where else I've stayed before I really loved the upstairs loft beds something about being in alil cave bed made me happy. Now the one annoying thing that's the only real issue is the temperature/ thermostat the first night we where FREEEZING and I did everything I could to warm the house but didn't learn till the ext morning I had no control of the thermostat and had to message the owner thru the app to turn up or down the heat. This resulted inmultiple nights of point of waking up in ur own sweat to freezing cold mornings ! The morning of check out we all had to get ready and leave in the freezing cold cus the heaters didn't turn on till 7 when we where walking out the door. If they where to give there customer temperature control I'd say this was a 5 out of 5 for sure but that one little detail made the house uncomfortable numerous times a day . Beds where great sheets and blankets where great pillows where perfect. Fresh plants everywhere ! Guite literally almost perfect

Great London

Nous avons profité agréablement de ce superbe logement très lumineux parfaitement adapté à une famille. Le logement se situe à proximité d’un joli parc et d’une ferme associative avec des Lamas, cochons… La situation du logement à proximité de Vauxhall permet de découvrir Londres très facilement grâce aux nombreuses lignes de métro, bus. Nous sommes ravis de notre séjour Londonien

Lovely flat in Vauxhall

We stayed for 6 nights in 10/2024 (Sun-Sat). Could hear club music Fri night. My teens LOVED that there were two lofts in the two bedrooms for them to sleep in. I had a full-size bed in one of those rooms and it was fine. The entire flat is a bit quirky (we're American) but worked great for us. The 1st floor (street level) goes up to the stairs to the 2nd floor (living room, kitchen, & balcony #1), then up again for the 3rd floor (full bathroom, bedrooms, & balcony #2). There is a washer but no dryer. If you plan to do a lot of laundry, you might find it challenging to dry. Fridge is half size, with the freezer being literally a slot (but works well). All the furniture is tired and probably in need of a refresh, but works fine. Favorite parts: skylight, window seats in the living room, park and separate playground across the street, location, and easy access to public transportation. Least favorite parts: the ceiling leaked during rain one night, but the owner is already taking care of it; being able to hear pretty much everything the neighbors were doing between 7-10pm; no dryer for clothing beyond the rack; and the high entry point to tub/shower. Not recommended for those with mobility issues (stairs). We loved this flat and would stay here again in London!

Family Visit

The property was clean and located near transportation and restaurants. We were in town to move our daughter into her dorm at LSE and it was a nice location for all of us to stay together for a few days before returning home to the US. Amanda was very accommodating and responsive and we will stay again if the property is available when we cone to visit our daughter.

Great accommodation for family stay in London

Our family of six had a great stay at this lovely apartment. Close to all the attractions London has to offer and Vauxhall station for tube and rail connections. An ageing property, it could use a few updates, but for price and location it was great for us. The hosts were very responsive also.

Decent

The location is super close to Westminster and an easy walk. It’s a cute neighborhood with a farm and community garden but the park can be sketchy at night (it is a city) but during the day it’s great. The apartment hasn’t been renovated since the 80’s so it’s a bit run down and could use some work (the pictures in the listing are after a fresh paint from awhile ago) the casings around some of the windows look like they could come apart if you push to hard and some latches are already not fitting. It was mostly clean and had some old charm. Just know it Is well used, with years of people in and out, getting up the tight spiral staircases, the couches are not clean and all the cushions are beat down, so we just threw blankets on them. The bedding was clean, and there are 4 beds (we didn’t try the pullouts) the lofts have head space. FYI a king in Europe is just a queen in US. The plumbing in the bathroom is eclectic you pull a rope and it flushes down, and that’s fine but the shower is so close to the wall you have like only 10” to stand under and try to get your hair wet plus the tub has a tight slope so just know. The kitchen was cute and had the clothes washer under the counter. The only other appliance we used was fridge, both fine. The listing had said a dryer and hot tub - neither of those things exist. Amanda was super nice and let us drop our luggage off early so we could walk around while she got the place ready, she cleans the place herself so she does what she can.

Apartment with character

I stayed with my family of six. There was a queen size mattress in aloft that my husband and I stayed on it was very comfortable. There was A futon in the room that one child stayed on one night. It wasn’t super comfortable for them, But it was a nice option to have. The other room had two full-size mattresses that were comfortable. The Family room had a couch that can fold down. I had a child that stayed on that one night and it was decent, but not as comfortable as the mattresses. It’s definitely worth staying here again. We walked to Westminster one morning and it was a beautiful little walk. It’s close to Victoria tube Line, Vauxhall station. The only real complaint I had is, we could only find three bowls, and my 4 kids really like to eat cereal in the morning. lol The host was very easy to contact and very accommodating!

Excellent property

We had a wonderful stay at this property. It was exactly as described, checkin and checkout was easy, the host was easy to communicate with and flexible regarding our checkin needs, the property itself is clean, attractive, and a bit quirky, and public transportation is an easy and pleasant 5 minutes away. We would definitely stay here again! PS. The property is private. No one else has access. I’m not sure what a previous reviewer was speaking of…
