Some info has been automatically translated.
South Woodford and Wanstead offer cafes, independent retailers, pubs, parks and good transport links to London. It is a safe and interesting suburban neighbourhood.

The room will be cleaned before arrival and will be cleaned weekly. Guests are welcome to use the kitchen, and to tidy up afterwards, sorry about that!

The space
The room is suitable for one or two guests.Children of all ages are welcome, there is a travel cot available.

I can provide details of kennels and catteries in the vicinity. A dog lives here.

The rooms are airy, light and quiet and, being in easy reach of shops, tube and open spaces, offer a relaxing place to stay whilst exploring London, working or studying. Guests are welcome to use the garden, even welcome to do some gardening! Guests looking for a long term stay or needing a base at intervals over a longer period eg Monday to Friday, during term times or for periodic work commitments are very welcome and this has worked well in the past. Students, under or post graduate, very welcome. I would prefer not to have a guest who plans to work from home every day and all day although occasional study or work from home is acceptable.

A hail and ride bus goes from the corner of the street to local stations, through Whipps Cross Hospital grounds and on to Walthamstow. William Morris Museum is located in Walthamstow. Nearby there's Epping Forest where the highwayman Dick Turpin terrified travellers and Queen Elizabeth I Hunting Lodge which the first Queen Elizabeth used when visiting her friend, the Earl of Essex. There are plenty of green areas around here for running, walking and cycling.

Please note that there are no buses from this area directly into central London. Cycling is possible in this area and beyond and cycles can be parked securely in the back garden. It may be possible to borrow family bikes, there is free on street parking for cars and on the front drive for motor bikes.

The room will be thoroughly cleaned before arrival.

Guest access
Guests have access to kitchen, garden and living room, obviously, the bathroom also is available!

During your stay
I am generally around morning and some evenings to offer advice if needed on the vagaries of English and London life

Other things to note
Children are welcome.

I read and speak a little French!

Leo speaks a little Spanish!
