About this apartment rental
Spacious three bedroom flat in a very quiet area, very central, and with all mod cons and creature comforts. Truly home from home.
With access to two of the bedrooms, front room, which is a lovely space for chillaxing, however, with so much on the doorstep such as Borough Market, The White Cube, Tower Bridge, Southbank, The Globe its likely you wont be staying in too much! There is no TV.
The flat has bedding, towels and basics in cupboard. Two bedrooms one with a king size bed. The other has a small double. In addition there is a delux blow up mattress, if you have a child or two, which seems to work well for guests. Also a sturdy cot and travel cot. There is no access to my bedroom space but I won't be around so you have the rest of the place to yourselves.
We have a great local taxi company should you need Airport transfers.

We had a nice stay. Lydia was very friendly and quick to respond when I messaged her. It’s outside the heart of London so you have to walk or transit in, but we loved that the area was less busy. Would definitely stay there again!

Lydia is the nicest host. She made everything easy from start to finish and I made a friend on my holiday. The flat was beyond adorable and very accommodating of my needs. So centrally located and close to the underground stations. I’d definitely book with her again <3

As a family of 4 we had a very nice stay at Lydia's lovely and quiet apartment. It was really nice to come 'home' after a long day in dazzlingly busy London between Christmas and New Year. Lydia was very kind and allowed us to use the apartment until well after checkout time. Highly recommended.

Only concern was the underside of the duvet was dirty and was discovered after the first night. Was changed before we got back at the end of the day so was resolved right away. Beds were comfy, not a lot of surface space to store our belongings but we made due. Very clean and Lydia was helpful organizing a ride to the airport for us. Great experience overall

Flew from Boston and Lydia made sure everything was perfect for us when we arrived. We had a wonderful weekend and couldn’t have picked a better place to stay!

Lydia was very available via email, text or cell if any questions arose. She even helped arrange our taxi to/from the airport!
Walking distance to a number of tube and bus stations and not much further to most of the bridges. Bike rental stand and local market are barely 2 blocks away. When we visited it was very hot. Air conditioning wasn’t expected but a fan or two would have been nice. Small TV is in the flat - although we didn’t test it much. We had 6 adults in our family. 2 per bedroom and Lydia was kind enough to arrange 2 single air mattresses in the living room for our extra folks. Bathroom was good, kitchen was complete and handy. Building was a little better than average for the neighborhood. Would stay again.
5.0
There were three of staying in Lydia's home, plenty of room for us all to have our own space. Everything was very nice. The flat is easy walking distance to many things, very nice to have a grocery store just down the street. We enjoyed our stay very much. Thanks for a lovely stay Lydia.

Abbiamo affittato diversi appartamenti in tante città , ma in nessuno siano stati accolti come nel rifugio di Lydia.
Appartamento bellissimo, molto curato e dove ti senti come a casa di un caro amico che ti accoglie con molto piacere
Dettagli che fanno.la differenza: la.nota di benvenuto, il latte, il.pane fresco e il budino per riceverti a tanti altri dettagli unici
Comodissimo.per spostarsi a Londra , sia a piedi, sia in bus. Con un parco molto bello dietro l'angolo (Tabard's garden)
Siamo stati con i nostri tre bambini piccoli.
Per loro é stata "la sua casa a Londra" !
Thanks Lydia !
Torneremo presto!

Hello, Lovely Flat. Not my style, but daughter liked the flat.No TV for morning news hour:(Black sheets on bed also not my style, as well as cow skin rug in living room. Building was over 50 years old according to maintenance man who had to repair leaking ceiling in bathroom. Flat was re-decorated at one time but not appealing to this world traveler.Front door opens to a not so pretty parking lot that is always filled.Do not plan to stay there again.Owner was pleasant.Prefer to pay a little more to be closer to downtown London.Thank you

Nice quiet spot but close to the action. It was a pleasure meeting Lydia who is a thoughtful and kind hostess. Short walk to Shard, Borough market, Tower Bridge. thanks again Lydia.
