About this apartment rental

Our bright and spacious two, double bedroom apartment is located in a quiet and friendly residential square just minutes away from the picturesque Blackheath village. Located one row back from the heath and traditional English pub, The Princess of Wales, you are perfectly located to explore London and the surrounding areas in Kent. Blackheath is a popular and desirable London village with an excellent choice of restaurants, bars, shops and a farmers market on Sunday.

After 7 minutes walk to the railway station you can be in Trafalgar Square and central London just 20 minutes later! As well as its closeness to Central London it is a 15 minute walk to the beautiful Greenwich Park, home to the Royal Observatory and the Queen's deer, with its panoramic views of London! Just another short walk from here is the centre of Greenwich with its historic buildings, museums, markets and boat trips on the river Thames. Greenwich Peninsula, home to the O2 arena and on the Jubilee Line, is just a short bus ride away from the village too. For corporate users we are within easy reach of the City and Docklands; London Bridge is only 15 minutes away by train and Lewisham is 5 minutes away with its connection to the Docklands Light Railway. London City Airport can be reached by taxi in 25 minutes.

Our clean and cosy maisonette is well equipped with everything you need to enjoy a city stay. It has a TV and DVD, high speed wireless internet connection, washing machine, fridge-freezer and ample cooking facilities. The sleeping arrangements would suit either two couples or a family group. There is a king size bed in bedroom one (which overlooks the communal gardens) and a king size bed in bedroom two, both with egyptian bed linen. We also can provide a single chair-bed (makes a proper single bed), a fold out bed (for a younger child), a travel cot (for older babies/ toddlers) and a crib (for small babies) . All bedroom curtains have blackout linings to ensure it is not too light in the mornings! We also have a high chair and a range of child/ baby friendly equipment. Our kitchen and separate, spacious lounge are very comfortable for family dining and relaxation. The lounge includes a small study area and bookcase with an array of books and tour guides.

Families will love this peaceful location close to London with its nearby heath, ideal for kite flying, ball games and cycle/scooter rides. Don't forget to keep your stale bread to feed the ducks and geese at the pond, a minute's walk away!There are parking spaces in the square and we are happy to provide permits at a small cost. We provide Oyster cards which you can top up and use on the trains, buses and underground to travel around London. We also have a picnic rug and balls which you can use on the heath or in Greenwich Park.

Check in and out times are negotiable. (When there are back-to-back bookings check out is 11am and check in is at 3pm.) For longer stays housekeeping can be arranged at an extra cost.

Our kitchen is very well equipped with a wide range of cooking equipment. We provide basics such as salt and pepper, oil and balsamic vinegar as well as washing up liquid!

The property was in walking distance to the rails, restaurants and pubs. Very clean and I felt safe in the neighborhood.

Great host and location. Quickly trip to the train station and you were in downtown London. Super clean and inviting house in a really quaint location. Had a great time.

Claire was totally supportive prior to our arrival as well as during our stay. She even decorated with a small Christmas tree. She got back to us quickly and always answered any questions we had. The house is comfortable and located where you can access the trains and buses with a short walk.

A wonderful little flat with everything you are likely to need. A perfect place for my family of four with two small kids. The owners were super helpful and always available to answer any questions. With it being so close to the train station (5min walk) you have great access to a London which is only 4 stops away. The proximity to the common is another plus as kids can run around and let off some steam as well as being a great place for the adults to run and work out. The restaurants are very good to. I’d suggest a visit to The Ivy Cafe. Nice setting just off the common by the church and delicious food.
