About the Area
My house is situated on the West side of London, and is conveniently situated in Queens Park. The local station is a 1 minute walk from the front door, and the bus stop is directly opposite the house with a choice of four routes. It is in a shopping parade, and therefore convenient for quick access of provisions, restaurants and take aways!

O Stephen, a musica, a localização. Tudo isso faz essa casa ser maravilhosa. Vá com o coração aberto, aproveite seus dias em Londres com tudo a um passo de você. O ambiente é calmo, o homestay é amigavel e, se ele não puder te ajudar, por sua elegancia, jamais te causará algum incomodo. Obrigada Stephen, fui muito feliz hospedada em sua casa.

The house is very ready for renovation and Stephen is getting that done this autumn. His warm personality and hospitality made up for that. I can honestly say it was my best homestay ever! We had so much fun sitting in the garden every evening sharing our life stores. Also very well located to get to the London sites and a nice neighbourhood. Thanks Stephen! You are one of the reasons I prefer homestay instead of an anonymous hotel when I am travelling solo; a real home to get back to each evening. It has been fantastic!!!

Stephen was very kind and welcoming. I had a wonderful time staying there- a lot of space, too. Was easy to get around London with the tube a 2 minute walk from the front door. Stephen was always keen to chat and help with any concerns I had as a solo traveller. I highly recommend staying with him and will be staying there next time!

Will definitely try to stay here again next time I’m in London. It’s been less than two weeks since my stay and I’m already missing it and wanting to return. Stephen is a great bloke, the bed is large and comfortable, and the house is conveniently situated

I really enjoyed my stay at Stephen's house! Stephen is an excellent host, always ready to help and as we are both fans of opera and classical music, we had lots to talk about. The room was quiet, clean, cozy and comfortable, the big bed with snow-white, professionally cleaned and ironed bedlinen, so I had a good night sleep. There is even a little private kitchen to use for the guest! I think that especially fans of opera and classical music will appreciate the stay at Stephen's. They can even have the music in the loudspeakers in the big bathroom! The underground station Queen's Park is less than 2 minutes walk and there is a bus stop of many bus lines just in front of the door.

Stephen is a pleasant and helpful host. His directions for getting from Heathrow to his home were very clear. He is situated only a minute from tube and train station and is on a bus route.
The guest bedroom is a good size with plenty of storage and comfortable bed. There is a lace curtain over the window, no blind or drape.
Stephen provides a good breakfast of cereal, toast and tea/coffee.March 2017
Stephen is a wonderful, kind and likeable host. He is always ready to help and advise me. We very well together, I love him. His house is a beautiful, very big and very clean. The room has a window that overlooks to the garden and the beautiful bed is very comfortably. In front of Stephen's house is a bus and underground stops. The center of London is really near and transport connection is perfect. Certainly when I will go to London, I will choose again host Stephen!
