    Nothing to say, we just loved everything about the house.

    It was like a home from home, very quiet and peaceful at night, very close and convenient to shops, restaurants and of course the tube. Margaret couldn’t do enough for us.

    Great neighborhood, superb location, a great room, and a fantastic, large private bathroom with a bathtub. I'd love to come back. Margaret gave me so many tips and suggested sights I wouldn't have visited without her knowledge, and she's so lovely. In the morning, she prepared a personalized breakfast for me with everything I love. I'd highly recommend it, as I'll be talking about my trip for a long time to come. Thank you so much for this; it was simply an unforgettable vacation with you and your family

    Everything was amazing

    Perfect location to visit London. Only 2-minutes walk to Southfields Station, a nice quiet area at night but very vibrant during the day, with plenty of restaurants and cafes. Lovely room, very spacious and comfortable. Private bathroom with shower just next to the room. Fresh towels and linen were provided, also fresh water was in the fridge with coffee and tea available in the room. Lovely breakfast was served in the kitchen every morning. Nice outside space to enjoy on sunny days. Margaret and Maurice were amazing hosts, they welcomed us into their house and made sure we didn't miss anything. They were very friendly and accommodating with all our requests. Next time I'll visit London I'll stay again in this accommodation. Thank you so much

    Charming London Stay with Exceptional Hospitality

    The experience is beyond expectations. I recently had the pleasure of staying at this hidden gem in London, and I can't recommend it enough! The neighborhood exudes a peaceful and authentic local charm that made me feel like a resident rather than a tourist. It's incredibly convenient, with the tub station just a 5-minute walk away, making it ideal for exploring the city.​ What truly stole my heart was the "old money" style of the local house. Having the entire two-story space to myself meant complete privacy and tranquility. It was a refreshing change from typical accommodations.​ Margaret went above and beyond to ensure my stay was perfect. She came by every day to clean and tidy the bedroom and bathroom, which is a level of service you don't often find. It made me feel right at home.​ But the highlight had to be the delicious homemade breakfasts. Every morning, Margaret prepared a hearty spread and even took the time to ask about my preferences. Starting each day with such a delightful meal filled me with energy and enthusiasm for my adventures.​ Moreover, Margaret was incredibly helpful and friendly. Her insider tips on getting around and local attractions added so much to my trip, making it both enjoyable and memorable.​ For anyone visiting London and looking to experience the local culture, this place is a dream come true. I can't wait to return on my next trip to London!

    Thank you to Margaret and Maurice for the warm and wonderful welcome! It truly felt like visiting friends in London. A real English home, located very close to the Underground line that takes you straight to all of London’s main attractions. The breakfasts were absolutely delicious, and the neighborhood is quiet, authentic, and truly British. The room was very comfortable, with a private bathroom — everything you need for a cozy stay. Margaret and Maurice are always there to help, guide, and give great advice. Nearby, you’ll find beautiful parks, lovely pubs with great food, and plenty of shops. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to feel at home in London!

    A very warm welcome. Margaret was very helpful and offered an amazing breakfast. Great location 5mins from the underground and easy to get anywhere from there. Supermarkets, restaurants and a very good chippie just a few minutes walk away. A quiet area, and was glad of the fridge.

    Exceptional breakfast. Good bed. Bathroom to myself. Superfriendly and involved host. Yet also room for privacy. Quiet, safe and pleasant neighbourhood. 5 min walk to a Tube station and from there, all the London highlights were easy to reach. Everything was taken care of, Margaret indeed manages to create a home-away-from home feeling. Will come back!

    Nothing.

    The host was really kind and also gave me a lot of help. I booked this place only for the Premier League match but thanks to her (and her local information for tourists), I got a big unexpected trip in London with my dad. The location was good too. On the District line, accessible, not too difficult to reach because the tube station has a lift. The best thing was the ambiance. Really calm and safe in the residential area. The house was a little old but it doesn't matter cause it was clean enough and cozy. The breakfast was fantastic. I loved her sweets with a cup of tea. As a guest, for me, the best service. Highly recommended.

    An excellent location! The tube is just a five-minute walk away, with plenty of good restaurants, supermarkets, and cafes nearby. It’s a safe, clean, and very green area, very close to the city centre without any need to change lines on the tube, and there’s great access to the train station. The room and bathroom are very cosy. You have everything here: kettle, cups, tea, coffee, biscuits, plates, etc. In the bathroom, there are plenty of towels, shampoo, gel, and many other useful things. There are even slippers! It’s much better than a hotel, where you often need to ask for many things. The house is very quiet, with considerate neighbours. The mattress is very comfortable, and there are two different pillows, so you can sleep very well. Breakfast is wonderfully diverse: eggs, cornflakes, porridge, tea/coffee, toast, jams, butter, and fruits. It was perfect! Many thanks to Margaret. She is a truly wonderful, positive, open-minded, and friendly person. Thank you so much for the recommendations and the interesting mornings!

    I'm not used to homestays, so the lack of locks on the doors did have me feeling a bit jittery at first. But I needn't have worried at all.

    Margaret is a wonderful hospitable and thoughtful host. The bedroom and bathroom are beautifully appointed and very comfortable.

    Margaret's home was very comfortable and she is a charming host. We know the area very well but she has excellent recommendations both locally and if going in to London. The house is spotless and the accommodation extremely comfortable and private. The bathroom for your personal use is just next to your room. Breakfast was delicious with a wide range of fruits, juices, cereals, yogurts, toast and eggs. Thoroughly recommend staying at Margaret's.
