What a wonderful place to stay in London. Nancy is a terrific host, and was so very accommodating when our flights were significantly delayed. She greeted us warmly once we finally arrived, and carefully walked us through the apartment to share details of her lovely home. It is beautifully decorated, and tells such a unique story from a life well lived. Nancy also provided us with a robust guide that detailed everything from various options for getting around London, nearby sights, and recommended places to eat. She pointed us towards the nearby County Arms which turned out to be our favorite pub we visited the entire trip. We couldn't have been more pleased with our stay, and we look forward to staying here again in the future.

No air conditioning so very hot and 10 flights of stairs.
It was clean, had good amenities such as starter food, dish ware, towels, etc. However, no air conditioning so very hot we stayed in an air conditioned hotel for 3 nights. The 10 flights of stairs to front door was a killer and then you have to go up another flight of stairs to get to the bathroom.

A gem 💎
First of all, Nancy was amazing from the minute we booked the property through the last day when we left London. She is reachable, kind and super helpful in giving directions and just telling us about the building/surroundings. The apartment is located in a historical building which gives it a very unique look and feel. A true castle at the first glance! I would recommend this location to anyone that's looking to have an authentic experience. We have a family of 4 and everyone had plenty of space to sleep and just have alone time as well. Book it, you won't regret it!! Thank you, Nancy !!

Marvellous apartment
As a previous resident of Wandsworth I had been intrigued by the RVPB and welcomed the chance to spend a few nights there. The apartment was very comfortable and quiet and had everything we could possibly need, as well as some fascinating art and artefacts to admire. We were warmly welcomed and thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Absolutely amazing!
We loved staying at Nancy’s beautiful treasure of a flat. It was like a museum, in all the best ways. Perfectly furnished and extremely comfortable with everything you would need, the flat is in a historic building that formerly housed an orphanage and school. The flat is in the turret of the building, with high beamed ceilings and stone facades. It is full of memorabilia from a life lived in the Middle East; you could spend all day exploring the art, rugs, and books. You can easily walk to the bus to Vauxhall or take a bit of a longer walk to take the train three stops to Victoria. Or you could explore Wandsworth and Claph shops, restaurants, and pubs. Nancy was a fantastic host, even waiting to greet us when we arrived late at 12:45 AM. She communicated easily with us and left us all kinds of recommendations for attractions and dining. Honestly, we could not have had a better experience and cannot recommend her flat highly enough!

Wandsworth stay
We had a lovely stay at this historic property. The apartment is beautifully furnished and ideally located for strolls across Wandsworth Common and onto surrounding areas. The kitchen had all the necessary equipment and gadgets to allow us to cook and gather round the island. There were quite a few stairs up to the apartment- and down to the courtyard to let the dog out! We soon got used to this. A really quirky property, which we really enjoyed.

Loved staying in this historic building.
This apartment was a lot larger than we expected. It's a little way out of the busyness of London but near two bus routes and we never had to wait long. The kitchen has the most amenities we've ever seen, even a bread maker but we didn't stay long enough to make use of it. Nancy is a very good host and alway available by text. She spoiled us with beautiful yellow roses too. Her place comes with lots of guide books and maps too. We've stayed in lots of homes but none compares to this one. Check out the kitchen before you buy groceries because we found lots of basics ready for us in the fridge. Recommend highly,

Living like Royality
From the first minute to last a perfect location. Nancy couldn’t be nicer, even helped with navigation from Heathrow. Our 10 day stay couldn’t be better. Quiet, and I mean quite except of course when the relatives from Aberystwyh came to visit. Plenty of room for dinner for 11 and games before they returned to their hotel. The apartment has a feel of a comfortable home. Pictures on the web site are accurate but don’t really do it justice. Free parking is a bonus if you have a car, and the nearby parks make for great walks. Close to everything. Hope you enjoy your stay as much as we did.

World class stay with gracious host
The flat in the Royal Victoria Public Building was an adventure into history and world art. Nancy surprised us with fresh flowers on the tables, breakfast fixings in the fridge and wine and sweets for us when we arrived. What an unexpected treat! We had a little trouble getting to the flat but, Nancy was very helpful. Once we knew what bus to take back and forth from the subway, we didn't have any problems getting around London. The flat was very comfortable and beautifully decorated. We particularly enjoyed all of the international artwork that was displayed throughout the flat. Nancy left us a very detailed list of where things were located within the flat and nearby restaurants, grocery stores, bakeries and shops. If you want to get away from the city, this is a wonderful location. Our flat was on the 3rd floor which required walking up a number of steps. But, the destination was well worth it!

One of the best hosts and best places we've ever stayed
Nancy is an amazing host! So welcoming and accommodating. The place was immaculate and clean. I mean, you're staying in a building from the 1850's modernized with a great blend of the old and the new - how much cooler can it get?! Every single room is a special experience. The architecture and decor itself makes Nancy's place as if you're staying in a mini-museum. The surrounding area is also very accessible with delightful coffee shops and bus stops and/or train access between a 5-18 min walk, which made getting into the center of London a breeze. Definitely, if you are looking to stay in a safe area, in a unique abode, with easy transportation access, hosted by a delightful lady, then this is your place. This was one of our favorite places we've ever stayed through VRBO (or similar) both because the place itself is so special and also because Nancy was such a lovely host (and we've stayed in many different places). Two thumbs up! Highly recommend.
