REVIEW FROM A RECENT GUEST ON ANOTHER PLATFORM
"One of my favorite listings of all-time (and I'm getting close to staying at 100). The place is very charming, cool design, great amenities, and clean. The outside patio is a great way to chill after a long day. Close to a lot of restaurants and very walkable. Proximity to Kings Cross station is very convenient as well. Hugh was proactive with his communication and very responsive to any questions. Thanks Hugh for an awesome stay!"

Perfect location, great apartment

Hugh’s place is so inviting and cozy, with access to everything outside your door. The back garden was just beginning to bloom and felt like a little restorative treat. There are great restaurants nearby, with easy access to King’s Cross Coal Drops area and an easy walk over to Islington. Will definitely be back!

Fantastic place in a great location

This apt is wonderful. Came for work and didn’t feel like a hotel. Hugh was great and made sure I had everything I might need. There is a great grocery store nearby (Waitrose), lots of fantastic restaurants/shopping, and easy to get anywhere from King’s Cross. It was winter, but the garden is still lovely, and a special place to relax for morning coffee with the birds. Bed was very comfy. I will absolutely stay here again!

Quiet, Idyllic Space in Central London

This is one of those homes that feels like you're tucked away in the countryside, but you have all the access to a city. This is due to the beautifully renovated kitchen / bathroom amenities, yet the house is full of stylish antiques. It's a stone's throw from King's Cross so you can easily access all parts of London but also easily hop over to Paris or other parts of the UK. Hugh has supplied the space with all comforts as well (tea, coffee, detergent, spices). I will definitely return!

best flat in London!

Hugh’s place is meticulously and thoughtfully decorated and furnished to ensure a really wonderful and comfortable stay! My husband and I loved our time in London due to the fact that this place is so easy to get to transit and neighborhood amenities! Its in the best location but also quiet and serene with a beautiful bi-level garden space! Hugh was so communicative and accommodating and gave great recommendations! Thank you so much for a wonderful stay!!

The Heart of London

The perfect place to immerse yourself in London. We enjoyed the easy access to shops, pubs, and restaurants. While able to relax and rejuvenate in this quiet, clean modernized London row house. The surprising, terraced green space in the back garden was a lovely respite from the hustle and bustle yet only a few minutes walk from the constantly busy King’s Cross/Saint Pancras rail and underground station, a portal to all of London and more! We enjoyed our quiet mornings with coffee in the garden, a home cooked English breakfast in the well apportioned modern kitchen, provisioned with groceries from the neighborhood Tesco’s or Sainsbury’s. Then off to The Tube with backpacks and walking shoes, and all of London only minutes away! Hours later, we would climb out of the underground to the sounds of buses, horns and people milling about Kings Cross and sit for a few minutes immersed in the sounds and scenes of real London. Then we would walk 5 minutes to be embraced in the security and comfort of our all too temporary home away from home. As you lay your head down at night and listen very carefully you might hear the distant underground rumble of the last trains rolling in…a remarkably comforting way to be lulled to sleep, like the distant heartbeat of the greatest city in the world.
