It has a pretty, south facing private garden with table and chairs and an outdoor chimenea/BBQ and inside has all mod cons (washer/dryer, dishwasher, TV with DVD player and Netflix and a wood burner. With a large, light kitchen/living area with two couches it's a great house for families, small groups, couples or business travellers.

HOUSE MANUAL

KEYS
There will be 2 sets of front door keys for guests in the house. If I'm unavailable to greet you I will leave one set of front door keys in the key safe and text you the code before arrival.
There is also a larger set of keys which are for the basement level doors - two gold keys for the two metal gates and two silver keys for the basement front door plus a smaller key for the back/garden door. There will be a duplicate of this garden key left in the garden door itself for easy access.

Please keep both the metal security gates and the garden door locked when you go out out or when you go to bed at night, for your safety.

In the event of losing both sets (unlikely, I hope!) I keep a set with a neighbour.

HOT WATER/HEATING
There is a thermostat which controls central heating/radiators located on the wall in the hallway by the bathroom. The hot water supply in the house is constant so will be on at all times.
PLEASE do not adjust heating or hot water via the kitchen boiler. Please only adjust heating via the thermostat in the upstairs hallway. It is quite simple to operate /change but there are instructions in the box in the hallway.

TV/DVD/NETFLIX
To use any of these, first switch on the power for each appliance on the six-way plug adaptor which is behind the TV.
On this six way adaptor there are separate plug switches for the TV, the Freeview Box, the DVD machine and the little black Amazon Firestick
(for Netflix)

For main TV (which is basic freeview TV with UK channels/Film 4 and limited digital channels) first use the long, black remote control to switch the main TV on, using the red button.
Then use the SOURCE button on the big black remote control to switch to Firestick or HDMI (use the small fire stick remote to change channels.
Also use the long, black remote for the TV's volume or to switch the TV on/off.

DVD
Just switch the DVD player on via the main 'on' button and use remote.

AMAZON FIRESTICK/NETFLIX

Use this small black remote to switch on Netflix/ Amazon/BBC I-Player and other providers and navigate the menu. It also responds to voice commands when searching for films/programmes.

When going out/going to bed please switch off all devices at source
(the plugs on the adaptor) It saves energy and is safer that these flatscreen TVs are not left on standby.

RUBBISH/RECYCLING
Rubbish is collected on the street outside the house, very early on alternative Tuesday mornings. Otherwise the rubbish can stay in the black bin until the following week.
Recycling is collected EVERY Tuesday morning.
Please use the black bin bags (located in drawer next to fridge/freezer) for rubbish and place in black plastic bin outside.
On Monday nights or early Tues morn (before 7am) please put any full rubbish bags in black bin and green recycling box on street outside house for collection (if you can remember, of course!)

OVEN/COOKER
The hob has five gas rings controlled by the five knobs on the front right
The main oven and top oven are electric. The main fan oven is controlled by the far left switch and the smaller top oven and grill is controlled by the second and third knob from the left.

WASHING MACHINE
Switch machine ON. Load machine. Put powder/liquid in drawer or into machine itself.
Choose wash. Shut door and press START - the arrow button.

DISHWASHER
Open dishwasher . Load dishwasher tablet and click the slot shut.
Press ON (top left of dishwasher door) then press 'P' until you get the programme you need. I find P5 is best (quickest) but choose P6 or P7 for really dirty plates!
Then press the '>' symbol and then just close door shut to start the programme.

Lovely home, great location and amazing host
We had a great stay at Geraldine's home. It was lovely and had everything we needed. Geraldine responded right away to any questions we had. It felt like we were staying at home which was nice after being out in London each day. We would love to stay there again when we return to London.

Great place to stay near Camden Market & Hampstead Heath
Perfect for me, my husband and 2 adult kids. We all had a separate area in the house to retire to at the end of the day. Nice little garden. Kitchen has all you need. Handy markets a block away. #24 bus around the corner that will take you to the major tourist spots. Geraldine was kind enough to meet us and gave us a tour of the house when we arrived. Note: There are stairs to climb up to the entrance of the house and also inside the house. We enjoyed our stay and highly recommend.
