Charming Villa on Tree Lined Street

IanRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

I spent a month at Nadine's house and absolutely loved it. A perfect "home away from home" with everything you need, as described. I was there in the autumn and would love to be there in the warmer months so I could make use of the nice deck and outdoor areas. The house was very nicely situated on the flat in North East Valley, a two minute walk from the bus stop to the city, and also from Chingford Park. I didn't have a car, and it was easy to cycle there from the campus and city on the flat. Nadine and her husband Jake were very helpful and always responded quickly if I ever had any questions about anything. I would definitely stay there again.

A well-equipped kitchen features modern appliances, including a refrigerator and microwave. A spacious countertop provides ample preparation space, while large windows allow natural light to illuminate the area. A dining table is set nearby, ready for shared meals.

Mary's Airbnb was well worth it. Comfortable and everything you need for short stay. The house also heats well and keeps you cozy in the winter weather. The location is fantastic, a short walk away from most attractions, although I wouldn't recommend it in the winter rain! I had a query pop up and asked Mary who was very responsive and made it easy for me to solve.
