    Lynda and Peter are very kind and helpful. They always gave me advice where I should visit and what I should buy.
    They also have one cute and friendly dog. I sometimes went for a walk with Lula. I really enjoyed and had a great time with them. If I get opportunity to visit London again, I’ll be back definitely.
    Thank you very much!!!

    Both Lynda and Peter are very nice. The home is lovely and warm. There are many books to read and games to play. Our student Jim is very happy to stay at Lynda's home. I highly recommend.

    Lynda and Peter were great hosts and couldn't have been any more helpful. Really lovely people with nice friends and, to top it off, champagne was served at dinner together with delicious meals. Would absolutely recommend staying with them: they will also teach you all the rules of a game called "Istanbul": don't miss it!

    My experience in Lynda and Peter house was fantastic. They're always helpful and thoughtful taking care of their guests. Also, their dog Lula can get friendly in a few days. She just needs to get to know someone. Lovely staying here. Thank you Lynda and Peter for giving me a warm welcome.

You then pay your host on arrival or as stated by your host on their profile and agreed by you on booking. Please be cautious if a host requests advance payment if its not included on their profile.
