The vibrant new development at Battersea Power Station also offers cafes, restaurants and shops. Although it is a lovely leafy neighbourhood, it is central, so the main sights of London are close by.

This house was amazing and just like advertised! It worked extremely well for our group of 9 aged 18 months-75! There was a lot of space, and plenty of beds. The host was so helpful and very timely with communication. The two elderly people of the group had a little trouble with all the stairs but they made it! So if you have people in your group that have a hard time walking this may not be the place for you. All in all the house was amazing, such a nice neighborhood, plenty of public transportation near by and Battersea park was wonderful!

This home was in a gorgeous Victorian Schoolhouse. The kitchen & dinning room was a large comfortable space and the bedrooms a good size and had good separation which worked for our family of 6. Beds very comfortable. Heating fantastic. Hot water plentiful. The property manager was very attentive with a couple of issues we had during the stay, though the Christmas period made it difficult to sort them out. Having lived in London I am aware of issues with old houses , but felt that there needs to be some more attention paid to the issues within the house given the cost of renting this property. Extremely poor quality & mismatched cutlery, only 6 wine glasses and about 25 water glasses, many chipped plates, broken and absent utensils. The kitchen sink required plunging every day despite the sink traps being used. The Miele dishwasher, we were warned about the heavy door which apparently nothing could be done about. The dishwasher next to it is fine but the 2 doors catch against each other and everything comes flying out. A builder relative looked at dw ,simple fix, secure the Miele dishwasher to the cabinet inside and problem fixed.Some kitchen appliances didn't work/not connected. The internet was extremely patchy and we had to use our own wifi device,( costing us more for data usage) . Some of the furniture is stained ,dirty and damaged and really should not have been in the property.

What a great property for our family celebration. 3 couples & 2 children travelled from Australia and found this property to be most suitable for our needs. Large bedrooms, bathrooms for each couple, huge well appointed kitchen & lounge, 2 laundries, great location, and lots of steps to keep us fit!! Early checkin was fantastic too!
