For a single person or 2 people this one bedroomed apartment is ideal in a private gated block converted only 5 years ago.

La description de l'appartement ainsi que les indications données sont en tous points conformes à la réalité. L'appartement est impeccable, confortable, lumineux et très bien équipé. L'immeuble est silencieux de jour comme de nuit. Dans Leather Lane la circulation automobile est quasi nulle, le marché ne génère aucune nuisance sonore et la nuit, cette rue est déserte. Voilà une adresse que je recommande sans aucune réserve.

Owner response: It is great to know that our French visitors enjoyed the apartment and its location and we will welcome them again in future.

I live nearby and needed a place for my mother and a friend to stay. The flat was perfect. Everything is though-out organized. From getting the keys, manuals for the television etc and the kitchen is stuffed with plates, glases and anything you might need. Very bright, spotless and nice decorated. Thank you! Thomas

Owner response: Very pleased that the friends enjoyed their stay in the centre of London.

A deposit of 25% of the total price is required on booking to reserve the property. The balance is due 8 weeks before the start date of the reservation and will be notified on booking. A refundable security deposit cheque is held as a bond until 10 days after the stay. Conditions for lets longer than 2 weeks will be negotiated. Cancellation arrangements apply as on booking form.

The location in Hertfordshire near many historic towns and the Chiltern Hills is well worth a visit. The apartment as shown may be available for purchase. Please get in touch if interested.

We are happy to talk to you about your specific requirements.
