Family-friendly holiday rentals in South London

We had a wonderful Christmas week at Flagpole Cottage. The hosts' home was clean, welcoming and extremely well-equipped. We had everything necessary for preparing family feasts, having a wood fire, plenty of bathrooms and comfortable beds. Robin and Francine even left a beautifully decorated real Christmas tree for us the enjoy (and put our presents under), a very thoughtful touch. We enjoyed the hot tub and trampoline (we were lucky with the weather, cold but not rainy) as well as the local walks to pubs. We bought our Christmas turkey (ordered in advance) at the fabulous Flower Farm shop, which is nearby and is a great source for all things edible. Robin and Francine's guide to local amenities and activities is thorough and quite useful. Robin was very attentive and open to queries but everything was so clearly laid out we didn't really have any questions. One last thing - the gardens are exceptional - even in December! I was in awe - especially the topiary. The old yew trees! xx

Reggie is by far one of the most attentive, helpful, and kind hosts I’ve ever encountered. His exceptional hospitality truly exceeded my expectations and made my stay unforgettable. I was genuinely surprised—in the best way—by how thoughtful and accommodating he was. Thank you so much, Reggie!

Great area of London for restaurants and markets. Easy access to Tube at Algate East and other rail at Liverpool Station. Val’s place was homey and clean and lots of room. Kitchen really well equipped. Views of the skyline beautiful, especially at night. A wonderful place to stay in the eastern end of London.

Carol Anne and Kelly were great hosts, kind and helpful. The apartment was very nice, equipped with everything we needed and very comfortable. The location is excellent, very close to the subway and buses, the neighborhood is great. We had a great time, thaks a lot.

Debbie’s place has an excellent location close to train stations, cafes, and it is also walkable to some attractions. The flat was very clean and comfortable for two people. We managed to get our suitcases up and down the long and narrow staircase with no issue. Debbie gave us helpful recommendations and was responsive before and during our trip. I would definitely stay again at Debbie’s when in London.

Apartamento sencillo pero muy práctico, con todos los accesorios necesarios para pasar unos días. Se nota que Yura es una persona muy detallista ya que no faltaba de nada. La situación del apartamento es excepcional, muy bien comunicado y a pocos minutos del "centro".

Absolute lovely place in a quiet area of London. The flat is exactly as described and it has everything you need for a short or long stay. Totally recommended, would love to come back!

We had a fantastic stay! The apartment was clean, cosy and exactly as described. The location was perfect – quiet, yet close to everything we needed. Janet was a wonderful host: friendly, helpful and easy to reach. The bedrooms were comfortable, and we really enjoyed relaxing in the whirlpool after long days out. We’d definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area. Thank you, Janet!

John is a great host and we enjoyed spending a little time with him once in awhile. The place was as described and a good starting off place each morning.

Great London guides and maps available for use during our stay. We stayed 3 weeks and the place was cleaned every Wednesday. Paddington tube and railway station very close by. Take the canal boat trip from near the apartment to Camden Lock for a fun day. Good hot water and pressure in shower.

Davey’s place is in great location. Lots of grocery and restaurants. The apartment is right across from the DLR. The communication was excellent from the day of booking. His hospitality is top notch. I highly recommend his place!

Fantastic, stylish and artistic home. The space is peaceful and relaxing. Courtyard is perfect for enjoying a cuppa in the morning air. James even went to the trouble of booking parking for us at a very reasonable price. Great park at the end of the road for dog walks and canal is just over the road for lovely strolls. A range of shops and eateries on the doorstep. One of the most comfortable stays we’ve had.

Paul and Angela's cottage was perfect for our short stay. The location is in a very quiet location yet within walking distance of all the places we wanted to visit in Greenwich and near great transport links to Central London. The cottage itself has everything you need for a comfortable stay. As mentioned in other reviews there is a narrow spiral staircase as clearly shown in the pictures but our 6 year old managed this just fine and we were able to take our cases up. Paul and Angela answered any queries quickly and were kindly able to accommodate requests to leave luggage at the cottage pre/post check in/out times so we could make the most of our short stay. We would certainly stay again and recommend to others.

Perfect for seeing a concert at Shepherds Bush Empire. Great and cheap Indian across the road. Very accessible for central London.

Super logement, proche des commodités et bien équipé! Équipement pour les bébés (lits, chaise, baignoire, jouets) à disposition. Nous avons passé un joli séjour en famille (7 adultes et 1 bébé), sans se marcher dessus, avec chacun ses espaces. L’hôte est très réactif pour répondre aux messages.

An excellent place to stay in a great location with plenty of places to eat and drink nearby and a very short walk to Kew Gardens and Kew Gardens train station. Enjoyed the outdoor terrace and large living/dining room area. Highly recommended.

Fantastic stay, hosts were brilliant and went out way to make me feel welcome, lovely to have use of the pool, nice walk from streathem station over the common and lovely neighbourhood, highly recommend

Want a nice quiet spot in West London that's affordable? This is it. Always got peaceful nights sleep and it's easy to get to the underground or walks to Shepherd's Bush.

Tara was very welcoming and made us feel instantly at home. The flat was well equipped with everything we needed. The flat was well located with easy transport links nearby. We would definitely stay here again!😄

Emma was very welcoming as we arrived. She showed us around and gave us perfect advice on how to get into town. The cabin was perfect for a weekend away. We found a swing attached to the trees and had great fun. The bed was like a cloud and the kitchen had everything you need. Would recommend to family and would stay again.

Jodi’s home is a great place to stay. We were going to a wedding at Hackney Town Hall and could walk easily there and to the restaurant afterwards. It’s also beautifully located looking out at London Fields. The home was well provided for, we had everything we needed and so much more. We loved the decor, there was so much to see and read. Thank you Jodi, you were so helpful too and we loved your home.

Warm and friendly, accommodating hostess . Very comfortable accommodation beautifully situated for walking into glorious local village and access to transport all over London.

We had a fabulous long stay in Susan’s house. The house was perfect, spacious and homely and in a great location near Clapham high st and Clapham common with lots of nice shops, parks and close to lots of public transport. Susan was very welcoming and responsive and went above and beyond to make us comfortable and help us during our stay.

Quiet, relaxing and in a great location .
