Beautiful Cottage
Just had a few days here so we could get into London easily. We recieved excellent instructions to gain entry, which perfectly explained everything. The property itself was clean and fresh and could not be more welcoming. The location is amazing, just a short walk from the tube station, and had parking right outside the front door. Overall we loved the property and would have been happy living there a lot longer than the days we booked! If we could give more than 5 stars we would. The hosts are not only a credit to the property but to the whole short term letting system. 100% will stay here again

A well appointed and located cottage.
The cottage is in an excellant location, well equipped and very well maintained. Kirsty's weclcome was warm and generous - nothing was too much trouble. It is ideally located with easy access to central London or walks in the forest. The proximity of shops is a bonus.

Welcoming & Adorable Little Cottage
Three of us recently stayed at this adorable little cottage in Buckhurst Hill. The home was clean, well equipped with amenities, it smelled amazing, and we couldn't ask for anything more. Buckhurst Hill is outside the city of London but a very easy trip on the tube to get into central London. The tube station is a short walk from the cottage. There is a park behind the cottage and a great restaurant/bar literally feet from your doorstep. There is also a market for groceries very close by. After a long flight from New York to London, Kirsty the owner, kept in great contact with us to arrange our arrival. She is a lovely woman and I hope we remain in touch. London was a stop on this trip as part of my 40th birthday and Kirsty went over the top to remember that bit of information only given to her at the beginning of our communication. Definitely the best host I've had the pleasure of meeting this far. If you are looking to visit London but want to get away from the hustle & bustle I highly recommend this home. If we ever come back to the UK, I would stay here again no question.

Beautiful cottage
Made to feel really welcome by the owner Kirsty on arrival. The cottage had a cosy friendly feel and was immaculate with all modern amenities and the back courtyard was lovely. It was an ideal location, close to a lovely pub with excellent food and welcoming to children. Lovely shops and high street 2 minutes away and 5 minutes to the tube station. We loved our stay and our daughter is counting down the days for our return. Thanks to Kirsty and Tom for a great experience.

The property was great in a fantastic location
The cottage was bigger than I expected. Very clean and the beds were very comfortable. In a great location just a tube ride to London attractions. Kirsty was very welcoming and helpful all the way through our stay.

Lovely Cottage
The cottage is really very beautiful and cozy. And it is very nicely decorated. It has everything what is needed. The beds, pillows and duvets are perfect. Very comfortable. Highly recommended. Unfortunately we couldn't take the cottage with us. :-) The only missing thing is a hand shower. Showering would be much easier. Kirsty, thank you very much for late check out. We appreciate it very much!
