First Timers in London (with teen and grandpa)

We stayed just over a week in the garden apartment and it was so wonderful! My daughter (13) and my father and I enjoyed the cozy, relaxing space of the apartment after days of traveling to central London and beyond. It truly felt like a home away from home. We found it easy to get to bus or tube stations (less than 10 minute walks) to get anywhere we wanted. Loved the tranquility of the private garden. The host was very helpful and generous! He offered great suggestions and guidance for our stay. Also was quick to accommodate with any needs we had pop up. We also could easily get groceries or other necessities from the numerous stores either located across the street or near the tube station. Highly recommend this apartment for a stay in London! Everything met and went beyond our expectations!
Loved we could hop on a bus and quickly get to some of the iconic sights of London!
We are dog people and we loved to get to meet our host pups!

Perfect for our Needs

This charming property was exactly what we needed for our U.K. girls trip. Comfy and clean beds. Well accommodated kitchen. Small grocery store directly across the street. Lovely back garden for a nice respite. 10 minute walk to the nearest Tube station. Our younger girls loved LONDON so much and cannot wait to return.

Delightful and homely

We loved staying here, and very close to Stockwell train station allowing us to have easy transport to all the attractions in London. The hosts were very welcoming and helpful and we adored the garden, doggies and seeing turtles in the pond. 5/5 for this beautiful little home.

Excellent location - needs a refresh though

Great stay and the host was very informative/responsive. The space needs a refresh (e.g., the leather couch was torn) including a deep clean, and some touch-up painting. Main bedroom is newer and felt fresh. Kitchen and sitting room needs some TLC.

Handy location great for a getaway

Ben was always helpful and prompt in communication. This garden suite has two bedrooms, a comfy couch and full kitchen which was great for our group when visiting. We were able to pack in a lot as it was so close to the city (it seemed like we were 20mins away from all the hot spots).

Great place, great location, amazing hosts :)

We loved our stay at the Griffin House! There were four of us and the flat was well laid out for it. The hosts were so kind to set the place up for us as we came in late. The gardens are exceptional. The location is very convenient. There is a co-op 5 minute walk but if you prefer a well equipped store just across the street! The Stockwell station is a 10 minute walk and gets you right into the City Center for the sites. Brixton proper is maybe a 15 minute walk where you will find a very active area with all kinds of things to explore. Kitchen was well equipped and the shower was great. Highly recommend :)

Place was nice

The property was nice, backyard was great (we didn't use it much). The couch could use an update it's old and not very comfortable and the photos show what we assume are other rooms in the house that weren't part of the basement suite we were in. The hosts were easy to get ahold of when we needed towels or to replace sheets. Overall the stay was fine, it was further out from everything they wanted but if you like to explore and take the tube it's a good location.

Just a few minutes from the Stockwell station, this beautiful home served 6 friends and family members absolutely wonderfully. We were very happy with the flat and all the amenities it came with. If we ever come back to.London, hopefully this house is available. Also, Bruno is ADORABLE!!!

Great Location, Great Host!

Wonderful home away from home, complete with garden and dog! Easy walk to tube station and short ride to central London, and a store across the street for essentials. Most of my stay I was a woman traveling alone and Nico, Ben & Bruno made me feel safe and in great company. I didn't have time to try all the wonderful day trip suggestions and nearby activities Nico told me about, but I hope to come back with the hubby to do all the things. Thanks for a great stay!

Spacious Two-Bedroom Apt. with Garden!

This was our first trip out of the US towards the end (we hope) of COVID, and we could not have picked a better place to stay. Our 10 day visit at Griffin House was spectacular. The apartment was spacious, clean and quiet. Underground and/buses to Central London to the north (10 minutes on Underground) or Kew Gardens to the south (20 minutes on Underground) were close by and plentiful. The garden was beautiful with three semi-private sections. We enjoyed getting to know Brixton and Clapham, both within walking distance of the apartment. There was an incredible selection of multi-ethnic restaurants in both neighborhoods and our favorite neighborhood pub on Brixton Road had out of this world vegan burgers, plentiful outdoor seating and a great beer selection (Brixton a favorite). Our trip was a “working vacation” for both of us, and the apartment had fast and reliable internet and plenty of rooms with doors to enable us to be on Zoom calls simultaneously. To top it off, our hosts, Nic and Ben, surprised us with a bouquet of fresh flowere for our 20th anniversary. As soon as we returned home to Brooklyn, New York, we booked our next London holiday at Griffin House!

Loved staying here.

We had too short a stay in this flat and hope to come back again to enjoy the lovely garden in better weather. It was very convenient to the tube and also to a range of fun restaurants in Brixton. Ben and Nic were easy to reach by phone and although Nic was ill and Ben out of town, we were able to obtain everything we needed. We could hear the dog running around and barking in the morning as it seems he doesn't like to be left alone in the flat, but that didn't bother us...no other noise and super comfortable beds. Thanks for everything, we hope to stay here on our next trip to London.
