The stay at this apartment was very nice. The apartment feels like a home away from home and is pretty spacious. It sits on the most picturesque street in a charming neighborhood and is close to public transportation and lively areas. The only thing that guests should be aware of is that the apartment does not have air conditioning. The hosts provided 2 oscillating fans and the weather wasn’t too warm so we did not suffer, but you should be aware if you are going in the warmer months.

Perfect Central London Flat!

We spent 4 wonderful days! We had everything we needed and enough welcome groceries for breakfast everyday. The flat was toasty warm with a comfy bed, lots of towels and lovely artwork everywhere. We would definitely recommend this flat highly and would hope to rent it again if we ever have the opportunity to visit London again. Thanks for the memories!

The Perfect Stay

My sister and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The location was perfect. It was easy to walk to two bus stops and a train station, Pimlico. We were so impressed that pretty much anything we needed was available at the apartment. There was food and drink for breakfast and a bottle of wine. We ate toast with marmalade all week. The bed was comfortable and there was always hot water available in n the shower. It was too chilly to enjoy the back patio. There was a patio heater, but we were too tired at night to take advantage of it. The decor and art was lovely. It truly was a pleasure to stay at this apartment.

A perfect stay!

I stayed at Caroline’s flat for three days in late September. Pimlico was the perfect location for me. Easy to walk to the tube stations, museums and art galleries etc. The flat was cosy and had everything needed for a short or long term stay. Caroline was an exceptional host and when my National Art Pass (ordered from Australia) had not arrived in time for my visit, Caroline very kindly lent me her passes (it helped to have the same first name!). On my last night it was cold and wet and it was a delight to return to the flat, put on the gas heater and tuck into the savoury and sweet treats provided by Caroline (ham, cheese, bread, wine). An absolute ‘life saver’ since I had not stopped to stock up on food! I felt very comfortable in the flat and plan to stay there on future visits to London.

Apartment is very well located and beautifully furnished and kitchen well appointed. Carolyn left breakfast provisions, wine, chocolates etc. After a 2 day trip from Australia it was much appreciated.Communication with Carolyn was excellent and John, The Concierge, was a pleasure to deal with and he provided us with lots of information about the apartment. The apartment has lovely outdoor areas as well.The Pimlico metro is about a 10min walk. We would highly recommend Carolyns apartment to anyone spending time in London. Lynne and Marilyn

We had a great stay at the flat. It’s in a great location, so very quiet. The building is beautiful and the flat itself is so charming. We loved having coffee out on the front balcony in the morning. We really appreciated having access to the washer/dryer as it made it possible for us to only bring a carry-on. The bed is rather small for two people (felt like an American double and we are used to a king) but we managed. Make sure you read all of the info in the handouts, they are very helpful. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend it.

L'appartement est tel que décrit sur le site. Excellent appartement, très propre, très bien situé. Caroline est très aimable. John nous a très bien accueilli. Contre toute attente, le déjeuner était compris et du jambon, fromage et autre ingrédients étaient aussi disponible. Cela a été très apprécié. Je recommande fortement cet appartement.

London stay

We arrived in London around 2:30pm and arranged early check-in in advanced. John met us and was wonderful! So sweet and it was awesome they let us in before 4pm. The flat is in an awesome area and we walked to many attractions. Thanks Caroline and John! We'll be back!

We had a great time! It is a very cosy, clean and well equipped apartment in a central, yet quiet area of London.Both Caroline and her concierge John are really considerate and helpful.Supermarkets, decent restaurants and public transportation can all be found within (short) walking distance (10 min max). Buckingham Palace, River Thames and Westminister are also readily accessible by foot. There is a balcony facing the street and a terrace towards the patio, which are both nice options if the weather allows. Items for the first breakfast were provided, and indeed lasted for several days. In the living area you have various lighting options to suit your mood.One thing to bear in mind though - especially if travelling with a pushchair - is that the apartment is on the first floor and both staircase (no lift) and hallways are not too wide. This was not really an issue for us, but I could imagine that might be different for others.

Ideal Stay and Location

Everything about this experience was wonderful. Communication with Caroline was easy and prompt, the flat was adorable and extremely well-appointed. John, the concierge was kind and thorough in showing us how everything worked. We so appreciated all of the amenities and food and drink left for us. The location is perfect with its own charm and easy access to public transportation. Even my teenager was impressed, saying this was exactly how she pictured a London flat. We would definitely stay again!

Very well-furnished apartment. So comfy, it was truly a home away from home. And the food left for us was very generous too. Great location, 10 minutes from the tube or a delightful walk to the city. The best VRBO we have ever had!

Cozy Apartment in Pimlico

John is the welcoming concierge who met us upon arrival, providing us with introductory apartment information such as how to use the dishwasher and washer/dryer, which was very much appreciated by us. The informative restaurant guide is also quite useful. The property is cozy with plenty of hot water. The heat worked well when the mornings were chilly. The closets allowed us to hang up our clothes during our 6-day stay. It was nice to have paper towel, tea, dishwashing liquid & other amenities provided when we first arrived at the property. We did not cook, but did use the refrigerator, coffee maker, and dishwasher. Lighting, particularly in the living/kitchen area was very good. The apartment is located in a very safe, desirable neighborhood. While pubs were within a 6 minute walk, nights at the property were quiet and restful. Pharmacy and grocery were located close by. The Tube is a 12-15 min. walk & signage inside the Tube stations is excellent. Westminster, Westminster Abbey, and Big Ben were walkable from here. We wouldn't hesitate to stay at this apartment again.

Great London Stay

Cozy little apartment in a great location. Two outdoor patio spaces made this place perfect for us. Small kitchen but well stock with everything we needed along with a “Starter Kit” of eggs, Bread, butter, ham, cheese, and wine. Very homie kind of place books and art all over the place. Walking distance to the Tube and Tesco Express along with a number or nice restaurants and Pubs. Would not hesitate to stay again.

Wonderful stay

As first time visitors to London we were looking for a complete London experience. Caroline’s apartment met all our expectations and then some. The location was a charming neighborhood both quiet, safe and close to wonderful Pubs and restaurants. We were met by John who had helped us navigate to the nearest subway station in close walking distance to the apartment. John gave us a comprehensive overview of the apt facilities. Caroline had left a welcomeing bottle of wine and snacks. The frig was stocked with fixings for breakfast. Kitchen fully stocked with accessories for food prep. High ceilings, floor to ceiling windows and 3 balconies. Comfort and English charm. We had all our dinners at the local Pubs and restaurants suggested by Caroline. All in close walking distance and food and ambiance what we were looking for. Buckingham Palace was a 30 minute walk.
