About this apartment rental

My apartment offers a great opportunity to spend time in Central London in a quiet, secure environment . It is situated just over the road from the Regent's Canal, a 10 minute walk to the very fashionable Upper Street Islington (Angel tube) and the same distance in the other direction to St Pancras International and King's Cross cultural hub, underground and mainline rail links. My 'maisonette'/duplex flat is clean, well-kept, well-furnished and newly re-decorated with a stylish well-equipped kitchen. It has ground floor access and stairs to the two bedrooms on the first floor and bathroom. There is an additional WC on the ground floor. My small private garden is at the rear of the property, with a dining table, chairs and parasol ideal for al fresco dining and relaxing when the weather permits! It is situated on a very well-maintained estate of 4 storey blocks of flats and 'maisonettes' /duplex apartments, with a security entrance, open spaces, gardens and a baseball/football area.
The British Library, Camden, Regent's Park, the British Museum and shopping areas are within walking distance. The local area is buzzing with bars and restaurants, cinemas and King's Place cultural centre by the side of the canal. Granary Square behind King's Cross/St Pancras stations is a fascinating, newly restored area that was was once a major part of Britain's industrial past. Now it is a vibrant, 'chill-out' area with bars, restaurants and shops - all in transformed Victorian industrial warehouses. The London Canal Museum is close by. All of this is just a few minutes' walk along the lovely canal tow path from my apartment. I love my home and would like others to enjoy it too as well as all the wonderful sites and experiences London has to offer. I just would like to ask guests to treat the apartment with care and respect the fact that it is my home and I only rent it out when I am away travelling. Thank you

Our family stayed here for 5 days while exploring London. Great location close to Kings Cross. Host allowed us to drop off our bags early, which was much appreciated after our long flight from the US. Loved the 1.5 bathrooms and there was always hot water. The mattress was a bit hard for my taste, but the price and location made up for it.

We really enjoyed our stay in Islington. It was a convenient location for Kings Cross and the British Museum. We used the canal path whenever possible. Best of all we slept well because the neighborhood was quiet and private. The home is lovely and well equipped.

My daughter, my teenage grand-daughter and I had a great time in London. Shirley's property was the perfect place to come back to every evening, calm, clean, very nicely decorated. It's like a little house with a small garden. The location is perfect at walking distance from St Pancras. A bus direct to London tower. A very nice walk along the canal all the way to Camden market. Shirley had given all the necessary instructions, thank you for having us, it was like being at home. I highly recommend! Catherine

Our family thoroughly enjoyed staying here for our trip to England. The location is fantastic for easily accessing all modes of transport in and around London. The flat itself is clean and feels like a home rather than a fatigued rental property. Shirley was super responsive to all our questions and we would definitely return here!

Shirley’s place is gorgeous and homely. Kitchen is amazing and fun to cook in. Both beds super comfy and so great to have two toilets. Always hot water and central heating kept us toasty warm. Preferred using the Angel tube station as closer and not as busy as Kings Cross!! Def recommend for family with primary school kids so you have somewhere cosy to come home to after sightseeing all day.
