Lovely character property well situated for easy tube and bus links to central London with everything we needed. Friendly welcoming hosts (especially Bruno the dog)! Gave us tips on getting around and where to visit locally. Would recommend to anyone and wouldn’t hesitate to book again.

A Great find!

The apartment was well located with easy access to the tube & bus into central London & beyond, an easy 5-10min walk away. There was a small supermarket directly opposite plus others close by for all we needed. The Upper 2-bedroom apartment was spacious, well equipped and beds were comfortable. We stayed for 9-nights during the initial heat wave early part of July – the apartment was still comfortable with openable windows and fans provided. We had access to the garden to cool down and enjoy the warm weather. The Landor Pub close by had a nice beer garden. Nicholas & Ben were very friendly, accommodating and were keen to help and assist if needed to make sure we had an enjoyable stay. They were very responsive to queries etc and were generally around to speak if needed during our stay. Not to forget Bruno – who proved a family favourite and liked to greet us on your return. We would certainly consider returning next time we are in London.

About the host

Hosted by Ben Brandstaetter

Hello, we are Nic & Ben and renting out two holiday apartments in the townhouse which we bought in 2006 and renovated it. The building dates from 1780, one of the oldest building in Stockwell, SW central London . Its been the vicarage building of Stockwell Church for nearly 200 years ,

We both love gardening too and if you stay you'll probably see us weeding or maybe tending the chicken who live in an 'eglu' at the bottom of the garden or the turtles in our pond

We love London, so if you've got a question about the capital, don't hesitate to ask. Additional to English Nic speaks Spanish and French, Ben speaks German (as Austrian)

Why they chose this property

The moment we saw the house, we fell in love with it. It is one of the oldest in area , having been built in 1790 as the vicarage for the local church of Saint Andrews. Stockwell is central but not touristy - it takes just 8 minutes by tube to reach Victoria. It's a multicultural neighbourhood that we are proud to live in and is close to the vibrant districts of Vauxhall, Brixton and Clapham.

What makes this property unique

Large windows flood it with light and the 30-metre (100 ft) back garden is unusual in London for being such a good size. When we moved in, the house was in a sorry state, dilapidated and having been used as a squat. We've now restored it to its former glory uncovering marble fireplaces that had been painted over with white paint and lovely wooden floor boards in the process. We love living here and we love having guests to stay.
