Very clean, comfortable bedding and superb location. Nil and Priyani will always go the extra mile to make your stay pleasant.

Constant South Africa

The hosts were very helpful in terms of how to get around, which trains to take, best route to the station, etc.

David United States of America

Nil and Priyani really made us feel at home and at the same time provided all the comforts of staying at a hotel. Everything was always spotless clean and the kitchen utilities were always available for us and very convenient. Also, our hosts were always ready to provide recommendations and guidance on where to go and how to move around the city. Do not doubt coming here!

Sofia United States of America

Priyani and Nil were incredibly personable and helpful. They had an assortment of information ready for us (including some that got us discount tickets to the Tower of London!), as well as easy access to tea and biscuits (cookies). We really appreciated their area maps and local recommendations. The neighborhood and house itself were also extremely lovely, and Priyani even offered to do a load of laundry for us! Really excellent service.

Lilricki United States of America

The hosts are a very friendly and relaxed couple. They provided me with excellent service. I hope to stay there when I visit London again.

Annemarie Germany

Lovely warm welcome! We appreciated how helpful our lovely hosts were, giving us maps and vouchers and explaining what there is locally and more central. Facilities were warm and tidy, a highlight during our travels!

Claire New Zealand

Everything!!! Location for getting into Central London was incredible. Ten minutes by tube. Brilliant! Wonderful hosts. Beautiful home! Comfortable bed.

Catherine United Kingdom

y around, though of course it has changed since my time ... it is a lovely and underrated part of London with a peaceful atmosphere and a green and leafy feeling, far away from city hustle and bustle.

Leena United Kingdom

How welcoming the hosts were. And how lovely the house was.

Martine United Kingdom

I’ve been traveling for the past five to seven years of my life and never I have been able to find such a beautiful place like this one nor such lovely hosts. I was expecting the place to be good due to the reviews but this went way higher than my expectations. Priyani and Nil made everything perfect everyday, starting from the apartment itself which was always clean, to the hospitality. The room was big, with big windows and a comfortable bed. They provided me and my friend with everything we could ever ask for. Even the place in which is located is incredible. The area is safe, there’s a ten minutes walk park nearby that is just amazing.

We are a warm friendly couple,originally from Sri Lanka, we both work in IT/Admin respectively, from home and love to travel and meet interesting lovely people from all over the world, which is why we have opened our doors to the International & local traveler, for over 5 years and have met lots of people and have made many friends along the way. We are established hosts with a very good reputation and reviews on other renting/hosting sites and wanted try it on this one. We love to learn about places we have yet to go to, so we enrich our lives by bringing the world to us, as well as learning about the local places of interest,cultures, food and traditions of those places, it prepare us for when we do decide to go there. We offer a value for money experience but without affecting the quality, which we maintain to a very good standard. I have studied & worked in all aspects of a 5 star hotel and am very knowledgeable in the hospitality industry as a whole. We are pretty sure we can make your stay a comfortable and memorable one, so give us a try.

We are in a quite residential leafy safe South-Eastern suburb of London in Zone 3, with well-lit roads and 2 overground train stations close by, (Lee/Hither Green) only 10-15 minutes walk away, with a commute time from there of just 15 minutes to London Bridge and 22 minutes to Charing Cross (Central London). Everything you would need is also available locally in this area i.e. Grocery's/Supermarkets, Restaurants/Fast food outlets, Laundromats, Pharmacies, Barbers/hair dressers and many more. There are also 2 lovely parks, 1 with a beautiful duck pond lake and comes with outside leisure facilities, i.e. tennis/basketball courts, football/Soccer ground etc. It is also very small children friendly and has a dedicated play area with a discrete coffee shop to keep the adults happy, everything is within a short walk away, from the house.
