Read More...We had a wonderful time in London at Martina's house. We felt very welcome and had great communication throughout. The house was in a fantastic location - just a short walk to the train station and a quick train ride into the city centre. Martina's home was very comfortable with everything we needed provided. Having her car to get from the airport and around was a huge bonus as it saved us a lot on car hire. We would highly recommend Martina's house to anyone considering an exchange.
