We are both lawyers but don't let that put you off - we are both housetrained. We lived in London until a few years ago but we still have a home there. We like the theatre, opera, music and visiting galleries. We have a Springer Spaniel called Lily who has her own passport for holidays in France.

There are buses going straight to Central London and the tube just a walk away, as well as supermarkets and a huge shopping mall. Margaret gave us all the information needed to find the house without any problem and to feel good in the appartment. Everything worked out very well and we loved this place :-) We also found our own appartment in Berlin in perfect condition when we came back. All in all, a very positive exchange experience. Thank you, dear Margaret and Alan!

Read More...When many people suggested that winter in London may not be a good idea, we had visions of rain, rain, more rain. But the weather was just fine for us with the only problem of a hot day - in February! Your flat was always warm and welcoming to us at the end of each day's exploring the city and outlying towns. May I suggest an update of your information folder? Perhaps using some bolding, underlining or capitals for the different sections would help us find information more easily. Thank you again for your warm welcome and swap. Barb and Inga

Beschrijving van het huis dat wij aanbieden voor ruil
This is a modern first floor flat built 12 years ago in a mixed development. We use the property most months to enable us to go to the theatre, opera and art exhibitions. It is light and is well furnished. It is about a seven-minute walk to both a train and underground stations and similarly to a bus stop. A car is unnecessary but there are two car hire companies close by. In the Westfield Shopping Centre, there is a Marks & Spencers and a Waitrose for food shopping.
Also, Portobello Market is a fifteen-minute walk through some of the loveliest streets in London. Holland Park is a similar distance away with its formal gardens, tennis courts and in summer Opera under a canopy.

Beschrijving van onze buurt en omgeving
This area of west London is typical of the multicultural nature of the city. It is close to a major shopping centre (Westfield) and has easy access to both underground and bus services to all the major tourist sites of London including Theatres and Art Galleries. It is also convenient for the railway lines to Heathrow and Gatwick. There is a small park to the front of the apartment block, which faces south. To the rear is light industrial area for fashion and media companies.. Hunt Close is a no through road and in the main the area is quiet.

Onze tips voor leuke activiteiten en uitjes bij ons in de buurt
This is London; where does one begin? All the major tourist attractions are within a short tube or bus ride away. Closer to the apartment there is Portobello Market, famous for antiques and bric a brac but also a food market for residents. Holland Park has a Japanese Garden, a cafe and a restaurant and in summer Opera is performed under a canopy. A little further afield is Kensington Gardens and Hyde Park with its Palace, Cafe in the Orangery, the Diana Memorial Fountain and the Serpentine Cafe.
We are happy to provide information about other places to visit including some of the more unusual ones.

Wat we graag willen of wat juist niet...
We expect to find our apartment as neat and tidy as it was when we left it.
Our neighbours prefer you not to hold riotous parties.
