If you want to experience London at it's best then come to Camden. This area of London is central, safe and packed full of cafes, bars, famous nightclubs, music venues and the world famous Camden Market along with beautiful parks and Primrose Hill. There is now Hawley Wharf right by the Market which showcases world food stalls. You can walk there in 8 minutes from my home. Then a walk along the canal brings you to the Kings Cross area of London which is the coolest place to be seen. Welcome!
I live in the heart of Camden Town, in a Victorian terrace of houses right in the CENTRE of London. If you look on a map of London - I live to the right of Regents Park.

I have had over 2,500 guests staying since about 2012, London’s Olympics. I’ve loved receiving people from all over the world and showing them the best that London has to offer. This summer will be slightly different but I am confident that my home will provide you with a comfy haven after rushing around London all day.
If you want to visit certain places, make sure that you book these early - especially if you are coming this summer. For instance the Harry Potter Experience in Leavsden Studios gets booked up months ahead.
This flat is ideal for 2 couples. Families with small children will struggle as I have no cot, gates for the stairs, and, 2 double beds, no twin beds.
PARTIES are not allowed. Only those who have registered can stay here. Please treat my home with respect and care... as you would at home. Smokers are welcome but only if they smoke outside. Thank you.
I do not have pets and this flat is not suitable for pets.. I can provide hypo allergic bedding if given warning. Please do not wear shoes in the bedrooms.
Just enjoy yourself when you come and stay in my home. My aim is for you to be able to chill and relax after sight seeing.
