I live in a quiet street in South London with my mother. We live close to three train stations, parks and shops.
The house is a three bedroom end of terrace house, we have a bathroom with a bath and standalone shower and a downstairs toilet. We have two reception rooms a good sized garden where we often have BBQs in the summer.
Near to our house is a river walk where I have spotted grey herons and kingfishers!

Would definitely recommendJune 2019
I really enjoyed my stay there! Karis and her mother had been very welcoming, warm-hearted and open minded. I really enjoyed the conversations with Karis and her mother, who (both) always had a positive attitude. For me it was a perfect stay, as I do often need a calm and peaceful place, when I come back from hours of exploring and a lot of social connections and chats - here I had it whenever I needed it. Shops are nearby, as well as the nice "riverview walk" and, since I became familiar with the bus routes, the transport to the city was easy. I have nothing to complain about! I'll definitely come back again!
How do I book?
Contact the host to check their availability and ask them any questions you have about staying with them. Once the host confirms they’re available for your dates, you can complete your booking.
When do I pay?

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. Our hosts have been advised that if they wish to request advance payment they must make this explicit in their profile. We do not recommend the use of Money gram or Western Union.
When can I share my contact details?
Host and Guest email address, phone number and home address will be exchanged in a confirmation email sent to both immediately after a booking is completed. It's against our policy for Guests and Hosts to exchange direct contact details via our messaging system.
