Further details for this vacation apartment rental in London, United Kingdom

Location: Wapping is a riverside community in the heart of London since Roman times 2,000 years ago. Its streets and buildings ooze with history, and a unique village feeling comes from the fact that Wapping has no through roads. This blend of peace and central location (between London’s old and new financial districts) has given Wapping strong Royal ties and attracted celebrities including Helen Mirren and Cher to make Wapping their home. Tower Bridge and the Tower of London are walking distance away on cobbled streets dating back centuries. Stores just a short stroll from home include top-class bakery and butcher, as well as grocery, fresh produce, fish & chip shop, pharmacy, newsagent, florist, post office, private cab firm and liquor store. Local amenities include four parks, swimming, sailing and tennis. For riverside pub lovers, three of the best and most historic in London (the Captain Kidd, Town of Ramsgate and the Prospect of Whitby) are local.

Simply Wonderful

Review Submitted: September 28, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
Family of 7, all ages, all very happy in the flat! It was very hot at the end of June, but the flat stayed comfortable. Great neighborhood, great local restaurants, great pubs, great location. I have lived in London and the UK over the last several years, this was the first time I had stayed off the beaten path - and it will not be the last. Everything was perfect, and we even saw Helen Mirren in the local supermarket - does it get any more British than that?

Review Submitted: September 1, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
We were a family of 6 - 2 adults with 2 teenage children, and 2 grandparents. We all loved our stay here for it's location, it's well equipped and extremely clean, well - maintained facilities and its general ambience. Delightfully appointed.The owners - John and Liz - were fantastic with ensuring everything ran smoothly for us. My father (72) was thrilled with the balcony, enjoying the boats and the Thames (as were we all); as well as the proximity to some wonderful historic pubs - there was a booklet in the apartment on walks past the pubs and their history in the area...we all loved this! Some gruesome details provided in said booklet - my teenage children (1 girl, 1 boy) were impressed! We have recommended this apartment to many friends on our return home - the spaciousness of the apartment was brilliant and its location, whilst convenient to public transport, was also a pleasure to return to for the quiet and relaxed feel at the end of very hectic days!!! We will be back!

Review Submitted: April 22, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
We have stayed at seven VRBO premier properties over the past several years and this was one of our favorites. The Sayers are excellent communicators and great ambassadors for Wapping/London. Our family of four loved the Sayers’ river-side apartment during Spring Break. The quiet neighborhood was fantastic. The #100 bus runs almost at a 10 minute pace towards the Tower of London and Liverpool Street Station only a few steps from the front door. We walked to the Wapping bakery every morning. The service at the upscale Pizza Express was top notch for my food allergy son. All the current London travel reference books by the front door were a great touch. We enjoyed watching all the river traffic at night with the lights from Canary Wharf in the background. The only issue we found was parking below the building the one night we needed a car was extremely tight for a station wagon. We would definitely recommend this apartment to family and friends.

Our family of four enjoyed the Sayers' apartment where we stayed the first week of April 2009. Everything was as advertised and we were well pleased. It was large enough to give everyone some space--important when traveling with two teenagers.

Jon is a good communicator, making for a smooth transaction. He was attentive to emails and did a great job of keeping us informed. Pauline does a tremendous job of keeping the place spotlessly clean and in working order. It was nice to meet her.

I would and will recommend this apartment to any London visitors.
