Welcome to Barnes, a classy riverside settlement that's often referred to as the only village in London. In keeping with this, you'll find all of the usual delights – duck ponds, parks, a charming high street and quaint pubs right on your doorstep. It's an ideal base for those after a peaceful space in the city that you can relax in with friends and family, and one in which you will truly feel welcomed and at home. We love the comfortable and cosy rooms in the home, especially the master bedroom with its deep blue walls and plush pillows. On warmer days, make memories in the private back garden or take long afternoon strolls through this residential, and consequently very quiet, family-friendly area. The train station is also only a ten-minute walk for quick and easy access into central London (less than twenty minutes). Return to your inviting new home for a cheese and wine night in the country-style kitchen-come dining area, before enjoying a nightcap in front of the glow of the crackling fire.

Home truths:
*The bunk beds and trundle bed are only suitable for younger children
*This is a well-loved, personal home so there are some signs of wear and tear
*This is a residential, West London location, so you won't be in the heart of the action here – although it's a short train ride from central
*Breakfast foods including coffee pods for the Espresso machine are provided by the host
*Your host also provides children's books and toys
