Comfortable property close to Battersea Park and the River
The location was great. We enjoyed walks along the Thames Path and Battersea Park which are only a few minutes away. The Uber boat (15 minutes walk) is a great way to get into central London. The property was well-equipped and comfortable for a family of four older and younger adults.Denise was a communicative and helpful host.

What can I say? Denise was such an incredible host. From the moment we booked in, Denise was sending us information about great local walks, places to visit and details about her home and neighborhood. She was super accommodating when we had an early flight. For 3 women traveling together, this was the perfect charming English experience. Amazingly comfortable beds, provisioned with all the basics that were appreciated (laundry detergent, tea & coffee etc), a supermarket and bus stops within a one minute walk. We absolutely loved our trip and would highly recommend Denise’s charming home.

Denisse was a generous and responsive host! Her home was charming and quirky, though be warned those who are fans of minimalism might find the decor to be suffocating or overwhelming. Also note the kitchen is functional but wouldn't suffice if you were planning to do extensive cooking.We loved the sun porch and spent most of our time there. We also loved the location - lovely coop grocery store within walking distance, close walks along the river and in Battersea Park, and major London sights all accessible with a little walking or bus/tube connections.

January 2023 in London
This cozy, charming home in a quiet, convenient corner of London was the perfect perch for a family exploration of London. Having two comfortable bedrooms and two bathrooms allowed everyone the space to unwind after a busy day. Amenities such as the washer allowed us to travel lightly. Our hostess was extremely responsive and helped ensure that our trip was a success.

Denise’s cottage was idyllic and cozy.
The neighborhood feels safe and is active with work traffic being close to the bridge.
My 20 yr old chose this spot for its location and the budget. She did well finding this lil gem. Appreciated the comfortable beds and especially loved that the linens were cotton, thank you!
It has a great local coffee spot around the corner, gourmet grocery nearby, a coop up the street. great sunset walks along the Thames & Battrrsea Park.

A true HOME in the heart of London
We stayed for 35 days this summer and enjoyed every day being able to come back HOME to Denise’s house! The conservatory was a great place to have breakfast and read the paper in the morning! And we loved relaxing in the living room, surrounded by antiques, when we returned at night. The kitchen was amply stocked for daily cooking. Denise was above and beyond reachable and helpful. The house is walkable to a bus stop, which was a launch point to get us everywhere we needed to go! The neighborhood is super safe, close to a beautiful park, yoga studios, and two grocery stores! We would definitely return!

Location location !!
The location is great with nearby stores, parks, transportation and restaurants. But there are the little things like the broken gate, everywhere in the house are scented oils almost to cover up the smell of something else. The house is rustic with unfinished wood work everywhere. Its not quite finished. Internet and streaming is great while storage seemed a strange and interesting what you might find.

I am glad you enjoyed the fast internet and appreciated the location, stores, parks and restaurants,
Sorry the little front gate to the garden was stiff, but we will get right onto it and oil it up.
You were quite right Larry, I used my two new Jo Malone diffusers, birthday gifts,….. as we put down new cream carpets last week and I am not keen on the smell of new carpets. 😁..
The pine panelling in the hallway, is natural wood, I think more commonly described as Georgian rather than rustic and it was finished, in 1826.
We do advertise the house as a home. I do leave all of the closet space in one bedroom empty for guests and only keep one hanging area, out of the three spaces, in the second bedroom for our stuff, but I appreciate your input and shall put a note on that cupboard marking it as private.

Wonderful Townhouse
My husband and I loved staying in this townhome. We found it to be the perfect location that was convenient for walking in Battersea Park, along the Thames, or to the bus stop. We also loved all of the beautiful artwork, antiques, and personal touches throughout. The bed, made up with beautiful linens, was very comfortable. The residential neighborhood was very quiet at night. We were out sightseeing daily, but had dinner at home every night. Great kitchen that had everything you would need to cook a meal. Denise was a delight to work with. Communication with her was excellent, she thought of everything to make us comfortable. We highly recommend staying here and we would definitely stay again.

Snug London base for a group of 1-4
Our family of 4 (parents and two daughters, 25 and 21) had a great week at this well-located and well-equipped house. Most of central London is within 15 to 45 minutes by walk, bus and/or Tube, and we also had an easy time using rail from the nearby Clapham Junction station for several trips farther out. Lots of good pubs and restaurants, coffee shops and markets within a few blocks. The house is well stocked with kitchen and bath basics and London guides, and emailing with Denise was easy. There are two floors, so probably not a good choice for someone who has serious issues with stairs, but assuming that's not an issue, we recommend it enthusiastically.

Great lication but property in need of repairs and maintenance. I reached out to Denise, the owner and explained how disappointed we were. She was very understanding and offered to cancel at no charge. However we had already unpacked and purchased our self catering supplies so to find an alternative at short notice and move would have been too hard. This was part of a 7 week trip to Europe so we had a lot of luggage and were tired after our all day travel the previous day so we elected to stay and Denise arranged a partial refund. The beds were comfortable and sheets clean, we mainly ate out and the location if the property was great with direct bys access literally outside the door to go to London Vic or Clapham Junction train stations, a coop at the end of the street. Just a shame it was in need of maintenance and was quite worn looking.

Yes, you are so right, the house does need a coat of paint on the front windows and I was planning to do it this autumn. I was also sorry that the front gate was wobbly, as you know I did try to get that fixed while you were there but was sadly let down by Manuel.
I am glad you appreciated the linen sheets.
I can so imagine that arriving in London, with a lot of luggage, could have been stressful, after a two week cruise around the Norwegian fiords. I really do hope that you enjoy the rest of your tour, in Europe.
Best wishes

Perfect for a family of 4 for 1 week.
I would stay here again. The location is in a neighborhood just across the river from Chelsea and Kensington, with a grocery store nearby, safe and well cared for area, located two blocks from the primary bus stop, although coming home immediately in front of the flat.
The home (yes, it is the host's actual home. She travels when it is rented) is comfortable and has all the conveniences. Not once did we feel uneasy about being in Denise's home. The 2-story flat was clean, dust-free, roomy, and comfortable for a family of 4 (parents + high school & college daughters).
Denise often reached out and we were in touch in advance of and during the stay. She offered accommodations we did not expect, and we were grateful for them.
Denise is a gracious host, clean & comfortable flat, and a great fit for us!

Great location with a true English vibe!
This quaint English townhome was in a great location: short walk to the local Co-op, restaurants and transportation. The Battersea park was about a mile away and was such a treat to walk through every day. The home has everything you need to make you feel at home. We love to cook, so, having everything including spices was terrific. The home is on the flight path to Heathrow, so, the airplanes are heard each morning around 6 am until around 9:00 pm, however, we got used to it quickly.
We also loved to look up through the glass ceiling in the patio to view them. The owner Denise was FANTASTIC! She was attentive to any need we had. Oh, and we had a little visitor each morning: a little fox would enter the garden in the back and peek in the French doors to say hello. :-)

Charming Home Close to Center!
Gosh! We were delighted with our stay at Denise's home. My daughter (22) and I spent 9 nights there and it was wonderful. Well stocked kitchen with lovely things to prepare meals (we only made breakfasts and snacks); close to a co-op to pick up odds and ends. Bus stop around the corner that we used to easily get to central London and other various points. Excellent area for walking as well, just along the river and into Battersea Park, but I also walked into Chelsea/Sloan Square. Beds are very comfortable with lovely linens. Neighborhood felt very safe even at night, no issues. Denise is great--very communicative and helpful. This is clearly a home, so if you are looking for a sterile, boring rental property, this isn't for you. If you want a lovely charming home for your stay in a neighborhood close to the center with a fabulous host than this is it! Would not hesitate to stay again.

This was the perfect location for our 11 night stay. The house had all amenties that we needed. Denise answered all questions in a very timely manner and even dropped off a replacement hair dryer for us. My husband loved reading in the sunroom with the back sliding door open. We even saw a cute fox in the back garden.We bought groceries at the co-op a block away and made breakfast every morning before heading out to the nearby bus stop which took us to most locations in London, and connecting tube stations. There was great wifi, water pressure in the shower and a very comfortable bed with beautiful linens. Even though the weather was unusually warm, there was a very nice cross breeze in the house when we had the french doors open in the bedroom which kept us comfortably cool in the evenings. The decor was cozy and the perfect representation of a traditional English home.

A real hidden gem
For our family - parents and two daughters aged 21 and 24 - this traditional English house was perfect and had everything we needed. We stayed here for a week. A beautiful home with plenty of space. A well equipped kitchen with well stocked cabinets. Having two bathrooms was a big advantage, not to mention the free wifi. The beds were very comfortable with quality linens. Lots of beautiful paintings and photos in every room which was lovely! Having a small private garden was perfect and we even saw a fox there. The neighbourhood is nice, quiet and very safe. The location is great and it is very easy to get around (bus stops close by and riverboat piers and tube and train stations within a 30-minute walking distance). There is a Co-op grocery store down the street. Keeping in touch with Denise was very easy. She answers to your messages very quickly. She is an excellent host and she sent us many useful tips before we arrived. We highly recommend staying here. Thank you, Denise! We had a lovely holiday!

Great Location
The property owner (and resident) is very nice, easy to get in touch with and was very helpful and accommodating. The beds and linens were comfortable and clean. It's very close to buses and the river. The property itself is very old and rickety and needs a good deep clean and some work. It was very hot when we arrived and even after opening all the windows and turning on the fans in the bedrooms, the house would not cool down and with all the windows open you could hear the airplanes and traffic. It was also unusual compared to every other VRBO we have rented, in that all the owners personal items were still in the residence as if they were still living there. So I would not recommend this house if the weather is hot (over 24 degrees) and if you mind the owners things all being there. The property is a bit cluttered with pictures and one piece of art in the garden room was a bit iffy. I learned I need to ask more questions before renting as I really don't like living in someone's main residence. I should have asked so that's my fault. We were all very unhappy (4 adults) for the first several hot days. Our mood changed a bit once the weather cooled down and we kinda got used to the place.

Yes, I agree, reading information about properties is vital!
The first sentence states that, " Our house is furnished as a home, rather than a rental property, in a traditional, English, country house style.
Our home is a Georgian cottage (pre 1840) . We have the original pine panelling in two of our rooms, usually much admired but to a modern day American I can understand that the patina of 180 years may might appear worn.
Our walls are hung with paintings, in an English style. As the word "iffy" is not a term usually used by art critics I can clarify that my guest meant that the picture is an original painting of a semi clothed female, exposing one breast. The rest of the paintings are original Victorian watercolours depicting classical and pastoral scenes.
I take note of your comments and I shall enlarge my description to ensure that only guests who wish to experience traditional English furnishings and pictures visit.
I am afraid that I cannot help with the fact that London is a large city surrounded by nine airports and air traffic noise, is a problem in London.
It is unfortunate that my quests experienced a heat wave, I do provide umbrellas as those are needed more often than fans!
Acerca de su propietario/a
Propietario/a: Denise
I am a prep school teacher, in a local Catholic boys school, where I have taught for longer than I care to admit to.......I moved around Europe, as a child, as my father's job took him to different countries, I have rusty Italian, German, Spanish and French........ My partner is lucky enough to own a rustic... Very basic.... barn, built of straw bales, where we can retreat to, leaving me able to rent out my London house, during the school holidays.
Por qué escogió este alojamiento
I have lived here since 1990, I find it the most perfect place. I love London, its energy and space. We are right in the centre of the action..... King's Road, Knightbridge, the 1960's hey day... Yet in the hub of all the recent river development. The riverside walk, which is 100 yards from our house gives up opportunities for long walks or cycle rides along the river, plenty of restaurants and cafes, a five minute walk to Battersea Park, with its boating lake, extensive gardens and best of all the new river boat taxi , which carries you speedily through the centre of London, from the West End to Dock Land, enabling you to jump on and jump off to galleries, theatres, historic buildings and lively markets. Or just sit on the boat, have a coffee from the on board Costa, and view the major sights from the comfort of your catamaran. The air is good as there is usually a wind coursing down the river. The area is safe. A local supermarket at the end of the road , next to the fashionable pizza, restaurant, Bunga Bunga. Our favourite restaurant a short walk over the river is The Ivy, which has a fantastic garden to eat in as well. Our house has a secluded garden, a rarity in London, and a garden room with bifold ing doors allowing lots of light and fresh air. It's a small Georgian terraced house, ( circa 1820 ) , a traditional cottage, used to be called a two up two down. The walls are hung with watercolours. ( not an ultra modern house) It is quiet, unless there is an east wind, and then we do hear some planes coming in.
Qué hace que este alojamiento sea especial
Quirky, close to the river, not overlooked. For someone who wants to enjoy a traditional Engish country house style, not for the lovers of minimalist houses that are solely used as a rental property.. We have a secluded, paved garden, overhung with greenery and shaded by a palm tree.
