Located in Hanwell, a neighborhood in London, this vacation home is a pretty Victorian house with an urban oasis garden, offering a characterful and cosy home from home experience. With three bedrooms that can sleep a maximum of 5 guests, this serviced let includes white cotton sheets, towels, and a cleaner. The master bedroom has a king-size bed, while the upstairs back room features an adult-sized bunk bed and a walk-in wardrobe. The spacious bedroom downstairs has a double bed.
The main bathroom is located downstairs behind the kitchen, with a good shower in the bath, while there is a toilet upstairs with a large vanity. The kitchen is well-equipped with a large Miele fridge, a larder, a large range cooker, and a Miele dishwasher, along with all kitchen implements and pots and pans. The garden, landscaped with trees, fruit bushes, perennials, and pollinator-friendly flowers, features a seating area for six with comfortable chairs, cushions, and a shady parasol, making it the perfect spot to relax in the summer.
Guests have access to the entire house and garden, with reception spaces including a kitchen and sitting room, as well as a small utility room with a washing machine and iron. The house is not baby-proofed, but arrangements can be made for toddlers, including covering the small pond in the back garden. The area is easily accessible from Heathrow airport, with Hanwell main line on the brand new Elizabeth Line providing fast access to Central London.
Overall, this vacation home offers a peaceful retreat in the suburbs of London, while still being close enough to easily access all the excitement the city has to offer. The house is generally quiet, with occasional air traffic overhead, and is not suitable for those with dog allergies, as there are two small short-haired dogs on the property (though they will not be in the house). The location is convenient, with easy access to public transportation options like the Piccadilly line at Boston Manor, just a ten-minute bus ride away.
Self-catering cottage holidays in the UK and Ireland can still be a green option. You can have the comforts of home and the flexibility to do what you want; when you want - without the hassles of air travel!
