Calm & Spacious Cottage in SW13, 30 Minutes from Downtown London

Tranquil and comfortable, come and enjoy London from our house. With a village feel in the city, the location has easy transport links to London Underground or Railway Services. A tube or train will take you to central London in just 20 minutes!

The house dates back to the early 1900s and it's 'boomerang' layout and unique spiral staircase give it a special look and added space - great for kids and adults alike. It retains some original features, such as the fireplace. Down a private path, the house lies in a calm spot and sleeps up to 6.

The kitchen is fully equipped with everything required to do some serious cooking if you're up for it! There is also a utility room with separate washer and dryer machines for laundry.

There are a couple of great cafes within 2 minutes walking distance of the house: Sips & Bites (Italian) and Spoonful (French). There is also a greengrocer and natural foods merchant on the same row of shops. In addition there are a selection of restaurants and The Bridge pub, all just 2 minutes walk away.

In Barnes village, there are many restaurants to choose from. Don't miss the Olympic Cafe and Cinema, and Rick Stein fish restaurant, a little further up in Mortlake.

Barnes is a very coveted area in South West London, there are various nature features accessible nearby - the river Thames (3 minutes walk), the Leg-O-Mutton nature reserve (3 minutes walk), Barnes Common and Barnes Pond (5 minutes bus ride) and the London Wetlands Centre (www.wwt.org.uk) a wetlands reserve for wildfowl and birds (5 minutes bus ride or 20 minutes walk). On the subject of nature, the house is only 15 minutes drive away from Royal Kew Gardens (www.kew.org), a must for any lover of plants!

For those looking to do shopping, the Westfield shopping centre is just North of Hammersmith on the other side of the river Thames (www.westfield.com). There are also world famous museums located nearby in South Kensington: The Natural History Museum (www.nhm.ac.uk), The Science Museum (www.sciencemuseum.org.uk) and The Victoria and Albert Museum (www.vam.ac.uk).

I'm always glad to receive any questions or requests :-)
The cottage is heated and features a kitchen and 2.5 bathrooms, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. The bathroom offers hair dryers and bidets. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board. Housekeeping is available on request.

We had some initial problems as the property had been left empty for a while with quite a bit of water damage and the roof needed repair, so walls were damp. Things improved after roofers came and heating was on for a few days.

We booked this property for a visit to Wimbledon, and it was an excellent choice. It’s in a great location and is easily walkable to the foot bridge and a few nice restaurants, and had great access to Uber and local busses.The house was spacious and felt comfortable to live in. It was exactly as advertised and we would absolutely book it again.

Our host was excellent, as he responded quickly to any and all questions I sent. The description provided in the listing is spot on. It was a wonderful home for our family of 4, with plenty of food and shopping within walking distance. There was breakfast food available in the home upon our arrival, and the bed was very comfortable. Having been to London multiple times, this was our favorite home to stay in by far. The Tube is an easy 10 minute walk from the home. I have nothing but positive comments to say! 10 out of 10 stars!

Nice accommodation outside of London proper

Comfortable home south of the Thames. Just a note: if you are unable to use public transportation Uber rides to central London are pricey because the the Hammersmith Bridge, although very close by, is only open to pedestrian traffic, Would recommend for families with teens.

Great place

We loved this place. There is plenty of room for a small group to sleep and a dining room table and living room where they can gather to eat, talk or play games. Its also a great spot to stay in London without being in the busy center of the city. Easily within walking distance to buses or the tube.
