We had a wonderful stay at Greg and Bridgets home. It's a typical house for London in a cul-de-sac with suberb walkability. Bus stops are 2 minutes away and the commute to the city is easy. Greg and Bridget are great communicaters and left a lot of information about restaurants and things to do. Their home was clean, equipped with everything we needed and provided more than enough space for our family. -
We loved staying in Greg and Bridget's London home! It was convenient to everything. The Sheen/Richmond neighborhood is perfect for walkability and access to dining, the rail system, and fun activities! Their home is "Americanized" so it includes a washer AND dryer! It was well stocked with what we needed. They were both excellent communicators in the exchange process so we got all our questions answered quickly! Thank you both so much for allowing us the privilege of staying in your home. -
We enjoyed an incredible week in London at Greg and Bridget's lovely home. Located in SW London, their place is an easy train/bus ride into central London. We particularly liked the short walk through a cemetery on the way to the train - saw flocks of parakeets and one day a fox! The neighborhood has loads of options for eating out and groceries nearby as well. Close the Kew Gardens - a must see. We walked there one sunny morning, but after spending close to 5 hours exploring the expansive grounds (and getting a mini concert listening to the Gypsy Kings warming up for their performance later that night) we decided to Uber home. The house itself is clean, spacious and comfortable. Two living room areas are a bonus - especially nice if you have a larger group. Well equipped kitchen. Best of all is the garden space in the back - such a treat to have a private outdoor area. Communication with Greg was terrific. He provided an extensive information packet with helpful suggestions regarding the house and restaurants recommendations. We look forward to hosting Greg and Bridget at our home at the Oregon coast and hope we might return to their home in London in the future.
