We had a great time at this lovely apartment. We stayed two weeks and had a blast, near many cute restaurants and shops. Trains and tube station was nearby. Bed and linens were very comfy. We made a few meals there and the kitchen everything we needed. Host was great to communicate with and accommodated our request to get there a bit early. Would definitely stay there again.

London l
Very comfortable clean place. Lovely surprise of snacks and cereal, and milk. We had problems with coffee maker and Charlotte was quick to have a new one sent right away. It is close to bus and train. It is also close to a district of bars and restaurants which was alitlle loud on the weekends, but not horrible, we were still able to sleep.
It wasn’t a problem for us but bathroom is 3 flights of stairs from bedroom. I am only mentioning so it is considered if you have mobility problems,
We would certainly stay again.

Clean, well equipped and cosy apartment in a great location.
No.10 was perfect for our 5 day stay in London. It was close to public transit, many shops and restaurants and just a short walk to Clapham Common and Battersea. Charlotte was a great host from start to finish. She was so kind making recommendations for a variety of things. Would definitely return, and highly recommend this property.

Fantastic stay!
A charming, characterful and lovely place in a terrific neighborhood. The area is very alive and dynamic while being away from the extremely crowded parts of central London… more of an urban village. The house itself is on a nice quiet street with easy access to shops and food just around the corner. Buses & trains easily accessible. Exceptional communication with host. Highly recommend!

Family visit
Absolutely everything we had hoped for, just round the corner from Northcote Road with an abundance of cafes and restaurants nearby. Short walk to Clapham Junction to enable you to get anywhere in London. Apartment was beautiful with everything you would need for even a longer stay. Just need to be aware there a few flights of stairs to navigate to get to the Apartment, but that helped with keeping daily exercise up there. Hopefully will get chance to take advantage of this accommodation again

Modern and convenient London bed sitter
Easy access to the West End from a pleasant and lively inner suburb provides an ideal holiday experience at this property.
Northcote which surrounds Clapham Junction overground railway station, is a bustling area of shops, including up-market specialty establishments, and a couple of good pubs. Trains leave for Waterloo and Victoria stations very frequently.
The bedsit in Auckland Road is well-fitted out with most of the kitchen amenities you would need in a combined sitting room and kitchen with comfortable furniture. The adjoining bedroom is spacious enough and the bed comfortable. Downstairs is a bathroom with a very good shower of modern standard European design.
There is also a washing machine with combined dryer, and the wi-fi works very well.
