This is a peaceful home with tons of personality, your host is a professional photographer and you'll be able to study her work that adorns the walls here. You'll be based in Hackney, a bubbling pot of creativity and artistic flair. This home provides a calming base where you can explore the local area from. Your host is very much open for longer stays so anyone needing a place to call home for a good period of time will do well here. There's also the added bonus of the garden patio, a top spot to grab breakfast and enjoy a coffee.
