The accommodation was spectacular. It waa such a treat to stay in a place with high quality interior design and furnishings. It was absolutely beautiful.
A warm-hearted welcome and a cozy atmosphere in a fully equipped, spacious apartment, located in an impressive historic building - what a great place to stay in London!
For us everything was perfect and we love to come back again.
This flat was perfect for our family of four! Our host was amazing from start to finish! Excellent location, very close to the train and quite a few restaurants, shops and groceries. Wandsworth common is a beautiful park right next door. We would definitely stay here again.
Our stay was amazing. The host was so considerate and supplied eggs, bread and snacks . The flat was beautiful and we thoroughly loved staying there.
Thank you so much !
We had a wonderful stay in London and that was due in large part to our stay at Nancy's home. The flat was charming, clean, and cozy. We really appreciated the warm welcome and all of the really great suggestions for restaurants and attractions - only if we had time to experience them all. Overall, this was a great place to stay with easy access to everywhere we wanted to go. And the surrounding area itself was very charming.
As a previous resident of Wandsworth I had been intrigued by the RVPB and welcomed the chance to spend a few nights there. The apartment was very comfortable and quiet and had everything we could possibly need, as well as some fascinating art and artefacts to admire. We were warmly welcomed and thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
Had a great experience overall. Nice quiet neighborhood. Well appointed and stylish apartment. We used Uber to get around and it was easy. Most importantly Nancy was an A++ host!
The host and Cohost were lovely. They answered all questions promptly and were very accommodating. They offered recommendations on local spots to visit/dine. We were able to use public transit as well as Uber to get around easily.
We would stay here again.
The flat is large and eclectically decorated. It has 3 levels which provides space if you are staying with friends. There are two separate living rooms!The building has interesting history and you can still see some of the old architecture inside the flat. It’s a short 15 minute train ride to London in a quiet neighborhood which has grocery stores and local pubs. Nancy was a wonderful host, friendly and knowledgeable. Both beds are very comfortable and the kitchen is very well stocked. I would definitely stay here again. Thank you Nancy!!
We traveled across Europe in 15 days and this stay was by far the best! Nancy is amazing from communication, hospitality and genuine helpfulness in making our London stay the best and most memorable friendly experience.She had snacks for the weary travelers and the accommodations were top of the line.A
We had a wonderful stay in London, and especially loved the flat here in Wandsworth Common. It was a beautiful warm place filled with interesting artwork, and you could feel the history. We enjoyed it immensely.
We have enjoyed every bit of our stay. The flat was spotlessly clean, comfortable, a fantastic mix of modern amenities and antiques, full of interesting memorabilia, books and pictures - it almost felt like in a museum. It is within easy reach of central London via bus or train. Nancy was a perfect host, very responsive and caring, making us feel welcome before we even arrived. We would always come back !
What a wonderfully historic and unique location. Gorgeous property and grounds.
The restaurant and courtyard were beautiful and an added bonus to enjoy.
A little complicated to get to downtown London, but didn’t take long.
Very responsive owners who left no question unanswered.
Would highly recommend and would stay again.
Thank you for making the start of our UK adventure so amazing!
If you're looking for something special, this is the place for you. The apartment is located in a fantastic historic building. The apartment has a truly wonderful character. We felt at home from the very first minute. It's a wonderful mix of antique and new. There's so much to discover...simply fantastic. Nancy is a truly outstanding host. Communication with her was easy, and she had a lot of good information. We received a warm welcome from co-host Sue, and everything was explained to us very well. Drinks and food were already waiting for us. We can recommend it 100 percent. Simply a dream.
We had a lovely stay at this historic property. The apartment is beautifully furnished and ideally located for strolls across Wandsworth Common and onto surrounding areas. The kitchen had all the necessary equipment and gadgets to allow us to cook and gather round the island. There were quite a few stairs up to the apartment- and down to the courtyard to let the dog out! We soon got used to this. A really quirky property, which we really enjoyed.
To cut a long story short: here you stay in a tastefully and charmingly furnished, spotlessly clean flat with lots of personality. There really is everything you could need for a few days' stay. The hostess is a treasure: helpful, informative and concerned. The nearest bus station is 2 min away, the neighbourhood is pleasantly quiet and yet relatively close to the centre. The house itself has a slight Hogwarts feel :-) Recommendation!
From the first minute to last a perfect location. Nancy couldn’t be nicer, even helped with navigation from Heathrow. Our 10 day stay couldn’t be better. Quiet, and I mean quite except of course when the relatives from Aberystwyh came to visit.
Plenty of room for dinner for 11 and games before they returned to their hotel. The apartment has a feel of a comfortable home. Pictures on the web site are accurate but don’t really do it justice. Free parking is a bonus if you have a car, and the nearby parks make for great walks. Close to everything. Hope you enjoy your stay as much as we did.
No air conditioning so very hot and 10 flights of stairs.
It was clean, had good amenities such as starter food, dish ware, towels, etc. However, no air conditioning so very hot we stayed in an air conditioned hotel for 3 nights. The 10 flights of stairs to front door was a killer and then you have to go up another flight of stairs to get to the bathroom.
What a wonderful place to stay in London. Nancy is a terrific host, and was so very accommodating when our flights were significantly delayed. She greeted us warmly once we finally arrived, and carefully walked us through the apartment to share details of her lovely home. It is beautifully decorated, and tells such a unique story from a life well lived. Nancy also provided us with a robust guide that detailed everything from various options for getting around London, nearby sights, and recommended places to eat. She pointed us towards the nearby County Arms which turned out to be our favorite pub we visited the entire trip. We couldn't have been more pleased with our stay, and we look forward to staying here again in the future.
First of all, Nancy was amazing from the minute we booked the property through the last day when we left London. She is reachable, kind and super helpful in giving directions and just telling us about the building/surroundings. The apartment is located in a historical building which gives it a very unique look and feel. A true castle at the first glance! I would recommend this location to anyone that's looking to have an authentic experience. We have a family of 4 and everyone had plenty of space to sleep and just have alone time as well.
Book it, you won't regret it!!
Thank you, Nancy !!
This apartment was a lot larger than we expected. It's a little way out of the busyness of London but near two bus routes and we never had to wait long. The kitchen has the most amenities we've ever seen, even a bread maker but we didn't stay long enough to make use of it. Nancy is a very good host and alway available by text. She spoiled us with beautiful yellow roses too. Her place comes with lots of guide books and maps too. We've stayed in lots of homes but none compares to this one. Check out the kitchen before you buy groceries because we found lots of basics ready for us in the fridge. Recommend highly,
One of the best hosts and best places we've ever stayed
Nancy is an amazing host! So welcoming and accommodating. The place was immaculate and clean. I mean, you're staying in a building from the 1850's modernized with a great blend of the old and the new - how much cooler can it get?! Every single room is a special experience. The architecture and decor itself makes Nancy's place as if you're staying in a mini-museum. The surrounding area is also very accessible with delightful coffee shops and bus stops and/or train access between a 5-18 min walk, which made getting into the center of London a breeze. Definitely, if you are looking to stay in a safe area, in a unique abode, with easy transportation access, hosted by a delightful lady, then this is your place. This was one of our favorite places we've ever stayed through VRBO (or similar) both because the place itself is so special and also because Nancy was such a lovely host (and we've stayed in many different places). Two thumbs up! Highly recommend.
