Amazing stay!

Diane was a fantastic host! Her property is situated in a great location, which made our outings so easy (everywhere is just a quick tube ride from the local station). We loved that we felt like we were staying in a “local” neighborhood that was non touristy (our kids especially loved the playground and met some wonderful local kiddos); but also accessible to all of the “must see” spots in London. Diane was communicative and accommodating, even helping us with logistical info in the days leading up to our trip. The flat was clean, and stocked with all we needed. Thank you Diane and we look forward to staying here again someday!

Short London Stop

Overall, the property was as described. My family of four, two adults and two teen girls enjoyed having the space over 3 floors. Only small issues were the internet, which we the host helped us figure out and the unbearably warm weather. The fans helped, as did sleeping on the bottom and ground levels.

What a wonderful stay we had in London! Diane was the ultimate hostess and her property was perfectly as listed and in a fantastic location to see all the sights. Our children, ages 5 and 7, loved having a playground close by and we would use it in the late afternoon before heading out to dinner. Diane was quick to respond to all of our questions and needs on our trip and even generously reviewed our itinerary making suggestions along the way. We would stay here again!

Really enjoyed the location of the house, close to South Kensington tube and lots of restaurants. Owner has dogs that have been in the house which was tricky for my family who are allergic. The description said no pets, but I didn’t realize the owner had her own pets. Overall good experience.

Lovely family stay

We found this apartment as very accurate to it’s description, close to a playground for my younger children, close to the natural history museum, and underground. We were a family of six and all fit fine. Having two bathrooms was very helpful. A full-size kitchen that met our needs. In house laundry was a plus. We very much enjoyed our stay, and Diane was lovely from the start of our booking.

Lovely spacious apartment in Chelsea

Our family of 3 visited London for the London Marathon. This lovely spacious apartment (3 levels) was perfect for our stay. The 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms provided everyone with space and privacy. The beds are comfortable, the internet is fast and the kitchen has every amenity you may need. The location is ideal as it is a 5 minute walk to the tube station and shopping, restaurants and very close to parks and attractions. It was an easy tube ride from London Heathrow. We also loved it as it was quiet and peaceful after the crazy crowds of the marathon. We would absolutely stay here again. Thankyou for hosting us Diane.

Wonderful location

Comfortable furniture and beds. Loved having a home to come to each night after touring all day. Appreciated a full kitchen with a washer and dryer. Diane provided wonderful information for us and excellent communication. We would love to stay here again. We are three adults from the USA and our first time to London. Having two bedrooms and two bathrooms worked out wonderfully for us. Loved being able to walk everywhere and especially the proximity of the south Kensington tube.

Lovely and spacious place, great location!

Our family of four stayed here for a week vacation in London. This place was absolutely perfect! It was a quick walk to the south Kensington tube station, walking distance to lots of shops and restaurants. Our kids are soccer players, and there is even a small soccer pitch a half a block away. The home had everything we needed, including a kitchen and Wi-Fi. The owner was extremely responsive. There was a problem with the washing machine that occurred just before we got there and she made sure that our laundry got done when we needed it to be. We would definitely stay here again!

Perfect Chelsea Location

My family stayed at the property for 4 nights and it was absolutely perfect for our group of 2 adults and 3 children. Large downstairs kitchen and dining area, ample bedroom and bathroom space. The location was perfect as it’s between all major roads, tube stations, restaurants, and shops. Diane is a tremendous host with excellent communication and she made the stay beyond easy. She was always a text away if anything was to go wrong. We look forward to coming back again!

Great location and nice accommodations. Getting around to cafes and taxi/bus/train was very easy.

We had a very nice stay and although there were 5 of us (2 couples and a college student), the house afforded everyone their own space. Plenty of room to cook and eat together or just relax. Lovely, bright rooms.
