Our favourite place
Submitted: January 4, 2011
Stayed: April 2010
We stayed in this lovely home in April 2010 for just under 3 weeks. Myself and husband and 3 year old son. The place makes you feel us if you actually do live in London with the locals rather than a Hotel. On arrival, we were greeted with a beautiful bunch of lilies, champagne in the fridge, bread, butter and milk and orange juice. Which were a lovely touch and very much appreciated. Rowan is a wonderful manager – helpful and friendly and was able to offer lots of little suggestions of things to do in the local area. Our son loved the big bath and local St Marks Park and we loved being so close to Sainsbury supermarket, the markets and public transport. The only down side was the home is a bit of a walk to the tube – which we didn’t mind as to get anywhere in London is a bit of walk and a train or bus trip. The home has everything you need, in the kitchen, shelves lined with great books, a laundry to wash your clothes and very comfortable beds. The place was kept lovely and warm with central heating and had a great little courtyard and front yard to play in. It was the perfect place and we would highly recommend this accommodation to our friends and family. As we have a done a world trip and stayed in VRBO accommodation in each place, we can honestly say that Barbly Gardens was one of the best places we stayed for value of money, location and house design.
