Pam was a wonderful host - kind and accommodating. I spent just under three months living with the family, and while none of us could have predicted a global pandemic, Pam went out of her way to make me feel safe and at home. If I could give six hearts I would! There is a reason why so many people keep coming back to staying at Pam's; she has exactly the right balance of being down for a friendly chat, and letting you have your own space. The house is exceptionally clean and Sara and Nick are beyond wonderful. I would recommend Pam's to all of my friends, and hopefully I will be back soon.

Nous sommes restés une semaine chez pamela c était très sympa. La maison est très agréable et tout parfait. C est une hôte très accueillante avec qui on peu discuter et une très bonne cuisinière. Bien situé à 20mn de Londres et la gare est à 2mn à pied. Nous avons beaucoup apprécié notre séjour. Je le recommande fortement.

Thank you Sophie for a lovely review, it was a pleasure to host you and your family, and to cook for you as well, especially as you guys enjoyed my home cooked evening meals so much. Until we see you again best wishes Pamela and Sarah.

Wow, what a fabulous host! The accommodation was pleasant and comfortable and is very convenient for local amenities. Most importantly for us, it was great for getting to and from London by train (which is a 2 minute walk away) in a short period of time! There was more than enough choice with regards to the continental breakfast and Pamela offers extra meals too! The PLUS side for us, was that whilst most of the other home stays in the area were charging extremely high prices over the New Year period, Pamela kept her prices to a minimum. We really appreciated that. Would we recommend this homestay..... 100% !!!! Thank you Pamela. We will definitely be visiting again

Je suis enchantée de mon séjour à Londres. Pamela a été très agréable et accueillante. Sa maison est superbe et très confortable. L'accès à sa cuisine et le petit déjeuné très varié sont des plus. Il faut environ 50 mn de chez elle pour arriver à la station de métro HOLBORN
( bus et ligne PICCADILLY) mais c'est très simple.Host reply
Thank you Valerie it was a pleasure to host you and your daughter, hope to see you again next year.
