We were thrilled to be able to rent this apartment again, having rented it a few years ago.
The apartment is excellent and our host, Warren, was very helpful, answering all our questions and being highly responsive.
The apartment is 8 mins walk from Angel Tube Station and 10 mins from Islington's main shops. There is also a COOP store on the corner - 2 mins walk away. It is well situated but set far enough away from the main streets that it is quiet. As in the pictures, you overlook the canal which we all found very peaceful and relaxing.
The apartment is located on the second floor and is secure so we always felt safe.
We could find no fault with this place. It has everything you need, plus more. We were very comfortable during our stay and would highly recommend it. We hope to be able to stay again on our next visit to London.

We loved our stay in this beautiful apartment so conveniently located in London. The apartment itself was in wonderful condition in a great neighborhood. It worked well for two married couples traveling together. It was only 15 to 20 minutes by bus to many of the Thames-front locations.

Property exactly as advertised. Friendly check in by Warren who showed us around the flat. Perfect location to coffee shop, supermarket and transport. We easily walked into London to explore! The outlook to the canal was a lovely distraction from the hustle and bustle of this great inner city spot.

Amazing flat in a super convenient location. Warren the host/owner went out of his way to greet us, and was most welcoming. The flat has the most peaceful view out the back picture windows, with a small balcony for coffee or fresh air. 10 min walk to Angel station which will take you anywhere you desire in London. ~20-40 minutes to most any attraction/spot. Islington itself feels like a Brooklyn or Queens neighborhood if you’ve been there for reference.

Excellent area for exploring London. Quiet around the flat but a vibrant scene close by. Lovely view over the basin was a wonderful surprise. Really loved the apartment and the area.

The location and condition of this property are both amazing. The apartment itself is spotlessly clean, super modern, and well equipped. The water pressure in the showers was fabulous. Everything in the apartment felt like new.
Warren was fabulous to work with- clear, accommodating, flexible, kind.
Just a 5-10 minute walk to the metro, lots of shops and restaurants nearby make this property more than 5* in our opinion. Such a great stay!

We were met by our host Warren, on check-in who gave an overview of the apartment. The place was clean, tidy, comfortable and in a great location - short walk to the high street, tube station and a wide range of pubs, cafes and restaurants😎

We had a great time staying here for two weeks in June with our kiddos aged 7 and 11. The flat is clean, comfortable and well-equipped for cooking. Manager Warren was great to work with and made everything easy. The building was quiet and very secure, and the bus and tube links made getting around easy. Lots of fantastic food nearby as well. And yes, the swans! Having the basin (and kayak school) outside made for a fun and unique experience. We would happily stay here again.

Liked that this location was close to tube (10 min walk). Liked the kitchen. Loved the view. Couch was comfortable. Warren the manager was helpful and easy to deal w it. Master Bed wasn’t very comfortable but I’d still stay again. Also to note that this is in a high student populated area and the students can be very loud on some nights.

Even better than our first visit in 2019 with the recent renewal of appliances etc. Warren was fantastic in going above and beyond to make our stay smooth. We love the location for walks along the canal and excellent public transport.

Don't want to say too much because it will be totally booked all the time!! It's a very comfortable, clean, bright property in a great area. Warren was wonderful to work with -- very responsive to questions. The view of the canal was great -- peaceful. Lots of nice pubs around. Looking forward to renting this property again.

Great apartment, good location, 10 min walk to Angel tube station, 4 min walk to Co-op and 10 min to main shopping and dining area in Islington. Apartment is just as described and communication with Warren prior to and during check-in was great. Highly recommended.

I would highly recommend Mr. Warren's flat. Warren was perfect not only during my stay, but also from the time of booking to when I left. Thanks to him I never had to worry about a thing. Warren's flat is very clean and well equipped with all kitchen utensils. The kitchen utensils are also luxurious. There are a number of supermarkets near Angel Station, so I enjoyed buying different ingredients and cooking in the kitchen every day. Also, the bedroom was very comfortable and when the weather was nice, I could wake up to the morning sun from the window. What I liked most of all was the view from the living room. The view from the large windows was like a painting. Also, when you go out on the balcony, there are swans and ducks, and you can see this peaceful scenery every day. It's like a 'free bird garden'! If you think I'm exaggerating, you should definitely stay here and experience it for yourself. It's amazing to have such a view in central London. I stayed during the winter season, so I haven't experienced it yet. ・・・・ It's also good to go downstairs and watch birds on the benches in the garden. I always used Angel station as the nearest station. It takes about 10 minutes from Mr. Warren's flat to the station. The path along the canal is great for a walk. Angel station is also convenient for buses as well as the underground. I think this is the perfect place for people who want to 'live like they live in London'. I would stay in Mr. Warren's flat again! I already think so now.

Perfect Location
This flat is perfect for a family. The location is ideal - close to the underground, restaurants and shopping, but far enough away to feel like you are away from the busy city. The flat has everything you need and Warren was wonderful to work with.

Perfect
This flat was immaculate, comfortable, well appointed.
Short walk to Angel’s restaurants, grocery stores and pubs(and tube/busses)
I have stayed in a number of flats and this is one of the best - loved the small balcony overlooking Regents Canal basin with swans, geese, ducks etc
Warren the “manager” could not be more attentive and resolved any issues immediately
I will be back
Thank you Warren

Beautiful Location in Islington
We loved our stay in this flat. Our son is studying in London, living in Islington, and we wanted a chance to just "live" in London for a week. The flat is beautiful, clean, spacious, and quiet. The floor to ceiling windows looking out over the canal were a highlight. Even plenty of room to do morning yoga! In the past I've found London overwhelming. But staying in a true neighbourhood like Islington has helped me fall in love with the city. And Warren was so helpful - there to show us everything when we arrived, and prompt to reply when we had questions. Highly recommend.

Great Place
Excellent apartment that’s clean and has all the amenities that you need. Convenient location less than ten minutes walk to the tube station through a nice residential area along the canal. Big enough that everyone has some space and nice to have two bathrooms.

Beautiful place and great location!
Property was very clean and tidy with no noise issues. Kitchen had everything you needed to cook, including oils, salt, pepper. Plenty of cleaning supplies and paper products too so no need to waste time picking that stuff up.
Short walk to the tube and restaurants. Really good pizza place less than ten minutes walk away.
Owner was extremely responsive and went above and beyond when we left something behind. Would highly recommend for your stay in London!

Wonderful stay/Wonderful host
This is the real deal! Wonderful flat with water view. The flat is absolutely as pictured - clean, modern, comfortable, quiet - very well equipped and appointed. Close to the tube, bus lines, and all manner of shopping - great grocery stores, farmers market, street fair and many other shops, restaurants, pubs. Near Camden Passage with interesting little shops and eateries. Enjoyed sitting on our balcony watching the swans and birds. Or walking along the canal and observing the houseboats. Warren our host was wonderful - so helpful in all ways - great and timely communications. Checking in and out was easy. Could not have asked for a better host or better accommodations. My husband and I stayed here with our college age daughter and it was perfect. Would love to come back! Did I mention the swans? Loved it all!

Extended London Trip
Due to Covid, our visit to London became an extended trip of over 60 days . We are very fortunate to stay in Warren’s flat in Angel and enjoy every moment of the trip. We visited the nearby farmer market as well as the Columbia Road flower market, last but not the least we had also attended the Angel Canal Festival, all very fascinating and enjoyable.

Great location and an amazing host
Everything is as advertised, the property is new and very very clean, but most importantly, Warren is the best host one could possibly be ask for, communication is near instantaneous and the weekly cleaning service is spotless.

Great aparment with everything you need in a wonderful location
Great apartment, well equipped (with high quality). Feels like a home away from home. Lovely view of the canal all day long. The location is most convenient - in terms of access to public transportation to all parts of the city, some grocery stores within a short walk, varied restaurants and a shopping center near Angel Station. Quiet area, and easy to walk and wander around. And last but not least, Warren was very flixible and helpful and the communication with him was easy and pleasent.

Wonderful, spacious apartment
The apartment is fantastic - clean, bright, comfortable and spacious for our family of 4. There’s a good selection of pubs, grocery stores and Angel station all within a short walk. There is a small playground beside the building and the kids spent time there every night - which meant parents could enjoy a quiet beverage on the balcony overlooking the canal.
Warren met us when we arrived and as we were leaving. He was very polite and helpful from our first email to the day we left. Thank you Warren!!
Would definitely stay here again.

Very nice flat, conscientious owner
My family and I really enjoyed our stay. The flat is as advertised -- very spacious, stylish, and comfortable. The nearby Angel tube stop provides quick access to the rest of London, and the area near the tube stop has good pub, restaurant, and shopping options. Warren met us to let us in and show us around, and was available to make sure our stay was pleasant.

Spacious Canal-Side Apartment
This was the best place I've rented in London! It is large, bright, and airy with excellent views and good air circulation across the apartment--very important during a record-breaking heat wave. Warren was also kind enough to make sure we had fans, which we are used to running while sleeping (most U.S. homes have ceiling fans in every bedroom). The location is fantastic. It is close to Angel station, which will get you anywhere in London with a transfer at King's Cross. I was able to walk to the British Library, where I was conducting research, in about 30 minutes. The Co-Op grocery was small but convenient and had pretty much everything we needed, including beer and wine. The Narrow Boat Pub and the Earl of Essex were charming nearby pubs with good food filled with locals instead of tourists. I would also highly recommend reserving an evening at Nightjar, a retro cocktail bar with live jazz in the evenings, just down City Road for a unique night on the town. You can live like a local in this beautiful and secure Islington apartment! We hope to stay here again soon.
