Centrally located in zone 2 near two underground stations the host provides you with oyster cards and maps for sightseeing.There are plenty of local restaurants , shops and pubs ,two parks with cafes, a climbing centre ,reservoirs sailing Kayaking and the Woodberry Down nature reserve.
The space
I am renting a double bedroom in my large, beautiful garden flat in a wonderful Georgian building with a large glass extension housing a second dining and sitting area. The perfect place to have a relaxing time whilst visiting London. The bedroom is cosy and newly decorated with ample wardrobe space.There is a bathroom with bath ,shower, sink and toilet which is kept clean at all times. I provide a hair dryer ,bedding and towels. Shampoo and shower gel will also be provided. There is new sofa bed in the front lounge for up two extra guests at an additional cost of £38 per person per night.

Artistically decorated ground floor flat in quiet residential area, only 5-10 min walk from 2 Undergound stations (Viktoria & Piccadilly lines). Open layout front room and updated eat-in kitchen with hallway to small bathroom & bedroom. Another hallway brings you t a small solarium opening into the back garden. Owner & property manager readily accessible & responsive. Availed ourselves of some of the recommended cafes/pubs/restaurants and enjoyed them all. Cheers!

We had such a great time staying here. Quick and easy to two Tube stations and an incredibly charming neighborhood. The property is clean and inviting. I can’t recommend highly enough!

This was a very stressful experience. I booked 3 nights with Home Away to have some time to myself. The owner didn't leave. She asked me if it was OK if she stayed and that she'd go to a friend's house the next day. I said OK but she didn't leave the 2nd day, either. I decided to leave one day early, but then found out it was past the 12 hours deadline to file a complaint or get a refund. I just wanted a place to myself, so I got a hotel room. If this ever happens again with any other property, I'll leave right away and get a refund.

A holiday to remember
Great location with easy access to two tube stations and a nice park across the road. Property is within reasonable walking distance to restaurants and stores. Hidden treasure is the backyard which offers quiet, private space.

Gorgeous house in the heart of everything!
I LOVED staying here. Easy access to two tube lines so it was half an hour to just about anywhere in the city, and an hour to the airport. The owner is an artist so her house is beautifully appointed with a lot of personality, and she was communicative and friendly throughout. In the summer the garden is gorgeous, with fresh apples and raspberries to enjoy. This is exactly what VRBO is all about in my opinion -- discovering hidden gems and meeting great people. I wish I had more than five stars to give!

Like Staying in an Art Studio!
Stella was a darling host and her place is an art exhibit all in itself. Stella was very sweet and accommodating to our needs.
I would book this flat again, without a doubt.

This flat was both pretty and practical and a welcoming place to return to at night.
We live in Bath and we chose to rent this London flat this Christmas for my mother's sake as she cannot manage the stairs in our house. This flat is accessible and parking was easy, just as promised.

Beautiful Home in a Great Location
We could not have asked for a better place to stay for our trip to London. Stella's home is beautiful, so comfortable, and functional, and located in a beautiful, quite neighborhood. It is only a short walk to two Stations to get you everywhere you need to be from the airport to anywhere in London and beyond. Pretty much everything is within a 15 minute tube ride. We would definitely recommend this HomeAway to everyone we know!

Charming & Lovely (both the flat & host)
From the moment we stepped foot inside this lovely garden flat, we were at home. Stella wasn't in when we first arrived, but Gabi was there to let us in, explain the set up, and get us properly situated. The room was exactly as stated, and was tidy, and inviting. The flat itself was cozy, and perfect to return to after a long day of exploring the city, or an evening at the local pub. We had full use of the kitchen, and very much enjoyed shopping for ourselves daily at the local markets through out neighborhood, and those surrounding it, and cooking for ourselves instead of dining out or getting take away/carry out. There is a lovely attached sun room that leads to the garden out back, and it is especially nice to sit in in the early morning or at night. Finsbury Park station is a short walk where you can catch the tube, and if you don't care to walk the entire way, there is a bus stop near the top of the street. We took an Uber from Heathrow, but had we known how easy it would be to ride the tube, or that there are dedicated spots for luggage, or that the tube goes directly from the airport to Finsbury Station, we'd have just bought a one way ticket and taken it instead. We'd have saved time, and about Stella left for us many helpful things to assist with navigating our way around, such as a map of the city and tube schedule, etc., and several museum, gallery, and theater recommendations as well. She even provided Oyster cards that we could top off using them, instead of having to buy our own, as we would have had to otherwise. Her efforts helped us make the most of our time there. We were fortunate enough to spend some time with Stella at the flat, which we enjoyed tremendously. She is charming, and lovely, not to mention quite a talented artist. We would definitely stay at this property again.

Great flat, great location, lovely host
The flat itself is exactly as pictured, artfully decorated, bright and spacious. Located in zone 2 close to underground stations, two parks, many restaurants, cafes and shops. Our host, Stella, was lovely, accommodating and helpful. She was happy to share tips and info on how to get around and where to go and what to see. Certainly recommend.
