"The place was very nice, exactly what we wanted."

Rosie apologized for the heating/water problems and contacted the office for us. She did her best to solve the problem. Hagit Belfer

Exceeded my expectations (I could tell that there wasn't going to be much of a river view just by looking at the map -- but I was a little concerned about noise from the Victoria Station train tracks. That turned out to be no problem at all.) Overall, we are VERY VERY pleased, and I hope to work with your company again. Maybe even in Paris! (If I can convince my family that its worth suffering through a trans-atlantic plane flight again.) I have already recommended your company to my friends here.

You have a very friendly and helpful staff. We would certainly use your services again as we really enjoy London and Paris as well. Thank you. Duane Gresh

Mary was very nice - she did a great job making us feel welcome.

The flat was stupendous! The location was excellent with easy access to the tube, restaurants, grocery stores and Holland Park. The neighborhood was quiet and very safe. Easily one of the smartest moves I've made. My wife thinks I'm a genius, now!

The apartment was much better than we anticipated. We were all very impressed with the service and the apartment. We will not hesitate to recommend CHS to anyone traveling to London. Well done. Norbert Klincik
(Property ref: BWE April 2008) 


It was exactly as advertised and I think FOS was priced right for the location and size We do plan to use you again in London or Paris. Richard Miller
(Property ref: FOS April 2008) 


The flat was beautiful, clean, great location. I couldn't have asked for more. Much better than a hotel. Robin Klinger
(Property ref: ABH April 2008) 


Very convenient location with all required amenities in the neighborhood, very quiet, safe and pleasant surroundings. Bed very comfortable! Andy and Judy Pope
(Property ref: BRO April 2008) 


Location was perfect.We really enjoyed our stay and would love to rent it again Henry E.Phillips
(Property ref: OSW April 2008) 


This is a sweet property on a quiet street yet so central with only a few minutes walk to Victoria Station. There are some good restaurants and pubs in the area as well. Can totally recommend it. Karl Eibensteiner
(Property ref: CAM2 April 2008) 


Our experience with Coach House London was very good. Our apartment provided a really nice home away from home and the Coach House staff that greeted us when we arrived had taken some extra steps to make us feel welcome and comfortable. Pat Osborn
(Property ref: RCT April 2008) 


We were very pleased with our stay in this appartment. Marc Vandermeulen
(Property ref: RCT March 2008) 


I will recommend you to everyone I know going to London and Paris. Catherine Chaplin
(Property ref: THD March 2008) 


We absolutely loved the place! Wonderful looking out over the river and the view of the Tower Bridge, wow! We would highly recommend this unit. It is away from the hustle and bustle of the city, which we appreciated, not being city people ourselves. Yet it was close to the metro to get anywhere we wanted to go. Linda Smolich
(Property ref: BWE March 2008) 


We had a great time and the accomodations were just right. It is a great central location to all of the hot spots in London. kathryn manz
(Property ref: BOU March 2008) 


Especially loved the sun room. Wireless internet was great, not mentioned in web site description. For 7 people, this was a much better value than staying in hotel rooms. Joan Trafecanty
(Property ref: FOS March 2008) 


We found the apartment to be as described - airy and convenient. Suzanne Santos
(Property ref: SGS March 2008) 


The flat was exactly as described. The views were wonderful and the underground was right around the corner. I would highly reccommend this property to others. Dan Johnson
(Property ref: ABH March 2008) 


I'll be using your service again in the future. Cassandra Wells
(Property ref: BRO March 2008) 


We had a wonderful time in London. Thank you for making us feel welcome! The flowers and groceries were a wonderful touch. Brian and April McCarty
(Property ref: PHL March 2008) 


Allesandra was a charming greeter, very gracious and helpful. Overall, the property exceeded our expectations. for a family of 4 with 2 adult children, a flat rental in London is more reasonable than trying to book decent hotel rooms. Our London experience was truly enhanced by living in a residential rather than hotel setting. We adored our Knightsbridge location right on Hyde Park and close to the Tube, and enjoyed the privacy, spaciousness, and homey-feeling afforded by living in a flat. Karen McKenna
(Property ref: WEL March 2008) 


The apartment was a pleasure-really beautiful and comfortable for our family. A delight to come to at the end of the day. Rose Gasner
(Property ref: ARG2 March 2008) 


We were very pleased with the little house in Theed Street and certainly intend to return - and to recommend the house to everyone here in Copenhagen who is willing to listen!

We all enjoyed a morning walk most of the days we were in Theed Street, along the Queen's Walk to Tate Modern, where we had coffee on the 7th floor, enjoying the magnificent view of London.

We really appreciated the fact that you can easily WALK to many of the attractive locations, both on the South Bank and in the Trafalgar Square area e.g. AND you can walk to Borough Market and to plenty of recommendable restaurants in the area. Need we say more? Inger Jensen

(Property ref: THD March 2008) 


Our greeters: Rosie (last Nov) and Mary (March) were both informative , friendly, clear. The service provided by CoachHouse London has always been professional and responsive and the properties even better than the photos. Truly they provide a "home away from home". I can hardly wait to try your services in Paris someday! Christine Renaud
(Property ref: BWE March 2008) 


Our stay courtesy of Coach House Rentals was perfect. I cannot praise this company highly enough for their efficiency and friendliness. Heather Preen
(Property ref: RCT February 2008) 


My daughter and son were very pleased with the safe, quiet location of this flat. The support staff was very helpful and we would certainly use this service again. Carol Sincerny
(Property ref: FER February 2008) 


The Coach House was ideal for our purposes, warm, clean, safe and much quieter than we expected for a London residence. We thoroughly enjoyed our week there, thankyou so much. Mrs Rosemarie Taylor
(Property ref: CHTR February 2008) 


This location was superb! Nestled in a quiet cul de sac between the Victoria and Albert Museum, the Science Museum and Harrods, the location was amazing. The apartment has lovely views from all windows and accomodations, although obviously not brand new, were perfectly fine. The bed was comfy, the duvet fluffy and we slept well. There are some really good restaurants in the area, especially off the main street - try the Polish Restaurant on the street opp V&A and one block down. Also, turn at Costa coffee on far side of street and wander down there for restaurants of every sort. The little Italian pizza place on the right side of the street was especially good and has live music every night. Enjoy! Vivian Smatt
(Property ref: BRO February 2008) 


The apt. is a little run down, but that was mentioned in the description and was not a problem. This was my second time renting though Coach House, and I would definitely go back to them.
Excellent service. Patrick Aquilina

(Property ref: BRO January 2008) 


Great location, great little house to enjoy London Ian Hogbin
(Property ref: CAM2 January 2008) 


We searched several different services for a rental and Coach House was the most prompt, complete, and helpful. When I explained what we were looking for, a couple great property suggestions were provided. The one we selected was exactly what we needed. Upon our arrival, we were cheerfully greeted by Sarah. She oriented us to the flat and provided many suggestions about the area. When we return to London, there is only one rental service that we'll check with: Coach House. Randall Goble
(Property ref: WYN December 2007) 


We had an absolutely perfect experience with you, just as we did last year! WES was beautiful, in a fun and convenient neighborhood; we hope to rent it again next time we're in London. Thank you for another wonderful vacation! Rebecca MacDougall Thompson
(Property ref: WES December 2007) 


Meeting services - outstanding, thank you, Mary.

The property was exactly as represented. The kitchen exceeded our expectations. London is expensive, and this unit was not "cheap." However, it offers an excellent value by comparison to other alternatives, and we plan to return.

I give CHS London my highest recommendation. The staff was very responsive to all of our inquiries, and the property we rented was exactly as advertised (or perhaps even better than advertised). We plan to use CHS London again.

The ping pong table was a brilliant addition! We had many matches and it kept our boys happy when we weren't sight-seeing.

We were thrilled with the location of our apartment. It was convenient to the Tube, markets, and within walking distance to many sights. The staff took care of our needs immediately and we would highly recommend the use of CHS's services to anyone looking for a hotel alternative. Donna Harper

(Property ref: PHL December 2007) 


Our stay in the Metro Central Heights flat was lovely. We had a wonderful view, the exercise facilities were good, the underground was very convenient, and the flat was comfortable. Making the arrangements was straightforward and everything went smoothly. I would definitely book through Coach House Rentals again, and I would stay in this flat again. Navah Langmeyer
(Property ref: MCH December 2007) 


We absolutely loved the flat! The view was great, the living space was wonderful! We had relatives staying in London and because they didn't book early enough, they went through someone else. I had forwarded the great email you had sent us regarding holiday closures there, etc and my sister-in-law said she was jealous because our place (you) gave us much more information than the one they dealt with. Overall, we were very, very pleased!! Judy McAuliff
(Property ref: BWE December 2007) 


The flat was perfect for us in all ways including internet access, great location with easy access to the tube (Baker Street). The restaurant Ishtar just a few blocks distance was excellent. The car service was terrific and timely; Lee was the driver and we used his services 3 times on our trip. We definitely recommend this flat and would stay here again. Paul Mendelman
(Property ref: WYN December 2007) 


Again, our meeter Brigette could not have been more welcoming nor more helpful. She was an absolute delight to work with and she made the whole process painless and helpful. A great credit to the company.

I would warmly and genuinely recommend CHS to any family or individual who wanted to rent high quality, good value accomodation in London, combined with outstanding and friendly support. CHS is one of the best run companies in this field I have ever dealt with and I make sure that all my friends and acquaintances are aware of their outstanding services.

(Property ref: FER December 2007) 


The property was exactly as described. This was an excellent location and the apartment made us feel that we had a flat of our own in London. The bedroom and sitting room were spacious and although the kitchen was small, we were able to cook several very nice meals. We would definitely stay there again. Dale Fessele
(Property ref: BRO November 2007) 


Our flat was lovely, comfortable and suited our needs perfectly. The location outstanding and the computer on-site was a godsend! Overall, the property certainly met our expectations and requirements. Thank you, Harley and staff! Patrici Miles
(Property ref: LSS2 November 2007) 


The property was beautifully maintained and very comfortable and it's conveniently located. Les Axelrod
(Property ref: PHL November 2008) 


We were very pleased to find this light and very pleasant flat. Well-located near the Pimlico tube station, it is entirely comfortable for a family. Susan Stein
(Property ref: SGS November 2007) 


Our greeter was very polite, helpful and midnful of the fact that we had just spent all night on a plane.

The BWE property was wonderful for my husband and three daughters. We had no trouble taking the tube from the flat to any attraction in London, and the flat's location just 2 tube stops away from a large grocery store was very convenient. The river was endlessly fascinating and we will remember the sound and smells of the river for a very long time. The neighborhood was remarkably quiet at night and both the Angel pub and the Mayflower were within easy walking distance and lots of fun.

Overall this flat made our trip to London even more enjoyable. Patricia Richards

(Property ref: BWE November 2007) 


Mary was very pleasant and gave us some wonderful suggestions for local flare! The house was exactly like we had imagined it to be. It was much more affordable then having our family stay in a hotel for 7 days. Plus it was nice for all of us to be under one roof! We had a fantastic time in London. As a foreign traveler, it was very comforting to come to a beautiful city where everyone was so polite and helpful! We will come again! The house was just the icing on the cake!! Thank you again! Sheryl Burns
(Property ref: PET November 2007) 


We appreciated the warm welcome of Mary. And what about those flowers!

We were very pleased with our stay at BOU. The location was quiet and very convenient. We felt like home from the beginning! We highly recommand Coach House London Vacation Rentals and wish to be back in London sometime. Linda Deblois Québec, Canada

(Property ref: BOU October 2008) 


Rosie was very friendly and helpful for the orientation. Coach House is a wonderful firm to rent with. The staff are very courteous and professional and the properties are in convenient locations and exactly as advertised. Laura Bryans
(Property ref: NGW October 2007) 


Brigette was absolutely charming and helpful. I could not have been happier with both the property I rented and the service I received from Coach House Rentals. The extremely elegant property far exceeded my expectations and Coach House Rentals staff provided a truly charming and personal service. Charlotte-Anne Nelson
(Property ref: ARG2 October 2007) 


We enjoyed our stay in London a lot. The accomodation was even better than expected. Waking up with a view on the Thames... There's even a private garage, although the entrance was a bit small for our Chrysler Grand Voyager (fair enough, we've got a big car, don't try to get a car like this in or out if you've got a nervous disposition :-) and remember: it can be done!)

This is not a cheap accomodation but worth every penny ! Would recommend this accomodation and also your service to others. And look forward to stay with you in the future !

A wonderful property in an excellent location. I would gladly stay again. Philip Kushner
(Property ref: LSS2 October 2007) 


Spears Mews was a delightful surprise and an oasis of calm in busy London. We have rented houses all over the world, and this one was very special. Very tastefully decorated, comfortable beds and bedding, a lovely kitchen and 5 bathrooms - we could not have found better accommodations in London. Earls Court tube station is a 4 minute walk from the house, and we loved the location as well as this charming and beautiful house. Thanks for making our London visit very comfortable! We'll rent again from Coach House, perhaps even this house. Holly Murphy-Barstow
(Property ref: SPM October 2007) 


It was a wonderful location for our visit and we would recommend Coach House to our friends in Calgary going to London. Stephen Cobb
(Property ref: ELM October 2007) 


Sara was informative and helpful and we appreciated her orientation information. It was even better than the lovely pictures showed! We felt perfectly at home immediately. We were traveling with our two small grandchildren and needed to have accommodation for meals and for them to be with us. While not cheap, BWE was less expensive than a small hotel efficiency apartment with a kitchenette. And the view was priceless! Everything was just as shown in the listing, actually bigger and nicer than pictured! We loved our view of the Tower Bridge and the boats as they came and went. The staff could not have been more accommodating and prompt with their assistance. I would not hesitate to choose CHS again or to recommend it to friends. Thanks! Susan Wood
(Property ref: BWE October 2007) 


The apartement was even nicer then it looked like on the web site. We were very satisfied with the stay, and would love to get back. And we would also recommed the apartment and the firm to friends. One single thing could be better; warmer bed-linen. London can be very cold in Octoberr, even for a Norwegian! Anne Brit Hodne
(Property ref: PCT October 2007) 


We thought that the overall experience with CHS London was excellent. The service was terrific, from Sara meeting us at the flat to set us up and give us the lay of the land, to the car service, which was on time and pleasurable on both ends of the trip. The flat was exactly what one would hope for: a cozy English Mews house in a great location with tasteful decor, comfortable beds with duvets, and cute little terraces to sit out on after a long day of walking and sightseeing. I would absolutely recommend CHS London to any of my friends. It made perfect memories for my sister's surprise 40th birthday trip. Kristen Cormier
(Property ref: BLI October 2007) 


Rosie was wonderful. Please thank her for us. We really enjoyed London and the flat we had. It was much better than a hotel. Coach House London is very professionally run, deliver a quality product at a reasonable price. We really enjoyed our stay in London and in our flat. Francis McGrath
(Property ref: LSS2 October 2007) 


Excellent location, convenient to public transportation yet in quiet neighborhood. The facilities were up to our expectation and quite adequate. The garden was a nice touch and was used by us at least briefly most afternoons.

Though we realized that London is a generally expensive destination we felt this was a good value for the accommodations and location. A good decision for us.

Keith Adkins

(Property ref: CAM2 October 2007) 


The neighborhood is wonderful although there isn't a large food shop close by. The buses and underground were near-by which was great. Overall we think the value was very good for the apartment. Frank and Carol Jones
(Property ref: BOU October 2007) 


The apartment was perfect for our needs and well located for London site seeing. Sal Bognanni
(Property ref: SGS September 2007)


Cedric our meeter/greeter was lovely; very friendly and quick to answer our questions.
The flat was comfortable, homey and looked very much like it did in the photos. The area of town was spectacular.
Overall we were very happy with the flat rental and will probably go that route again should we return to London.

It felt like our home. The apt was very clean and the area was very nice. My wife and I loved the apt very much and we will be back. Tony M Ghaffari
(Property ref: PCT September 2007) 


Cedric who met us was most kind and helpful A very family and cosy atmosphere. For first timer in London, the property WYN allow us to quickly get used to London living with no worry. ALEX TEO
(Property ref: WYN September 2007) 


The website made it fun browsing for our "home." It was a wonderful property, so close to groceries, restaurants (Ffiona's and the Georgian restaurant are awesome!) and the tube stop was only a couple of blocks away. It was so nice to come "home" after a day of sightseeing and be able to have the space to relax and have friends over. Thank you! Brenda Frost
(Property ref: PHL September 2007) 


Our greeter was vey informative and helpful to get us situated. The beautiful roses she brought were very, very much appreciated. It was my mother in laws 40th wedding anniversary so the flowers just started the whole trip off the right way..and made her feel very special. WE LOVED IT Jan Spencer
(Property ref: LSS2 September 2007) 


We loved the BWE flat - It was the perfect size for 4. The river traffic was constant entertainment.We were close to the Bermondsey Station and bus routes and used both.We were very comfortable and will recommend it to friends and family. Stephen Denike
(Property ref: BWE September 2007)


Rosie's enthusiasm helped to get our vacation off to a great start. She gave us lots of helpful information and tips. VIRGINIA HELMS
(Property ref: ARG2 September 2007) 


Rosie in was lovely and thanks again for the beautiful roses. ELM was a bit noisy with the windows open but otherwise no complaints. Diana Clarke
(Property ref: ELM and PFRC September 2007) 


Cedric was delightful.
The photos on your website were excellent in portraying the apartment. Far superior to other websites.
Thank you for the delightful apartment, hope to return someday soon.

Terrific! A remarkable value. This was an A-1 experience, from the booking through the stay. We'll book with you anytime! Thomas W. Fryer, Jr.
(Property ref: PPQ September 2007) 


This was our 2nd rental and, though some of the furnishings were dated, was a marvelous little flat in a superb location in Knightsbridge, with a private garden and views front and back. For a couple, it was perfect. r. wiener
(Property ref: BRO August 2007) 


Highly recommended. Andre' Reams
(Property ref: PPA August 2007) 


Mary is a lovely lady. thank you for your warm welcome.

We have found the description exactly like the property is. Anyway, the reality overtake our expectation. Wonderful accomodation: it was not an holiday flat. It was: stay at home ....in another town!!!!

We simply thank you all for kindness and friendly welcome. Our time in London was fantastic. We find in CHS London staff high professionality and competence. We all (including my older son Sergio that actually work at Foster+partners in Hester Road - close to PGT Property - and spent is free time with us) appreciate your services. We hope to be there again.

"Ad maiora". Best wishes. Pasquale Valentini and family. VALENTINI PASQUALE

We enjoyed our stay so much. The property was lovely and of course we will recommend you to our friends. Encarni de la Arada
(Property ref: MAR2 August 2007) 


Mary was so nice. Aidan, our son, kept asking when she was coming back for a visit. The photos and description were perfect. We loved CAM2! It looked just like the photos on the web and was perfect for our family of 3 (a 9 year old boy). Having an outdoor space was wonderful in fair weather. Very quiet block. Nice markets, grocery stores and resturants. Pimlico is a great neighborhood and being close to Victoria station makes getting around the City a breeze. Can't wait to return, we would definitely try to stay in CAM2 again. Melissa C. Howell
(Property ref: CAM2 August 2007) 


We enjoyed our stay in a London neighborhood, eating in local restaurants - much better deal than staying in a hotel! Carrie Miller
(Property ref: FOS August 2007) 


This is an excellent apartment, fully equipped, functional, excellent location, very quiet area, and near several bus and tube stations.I enjoyed this apartment, the area and my walks in Kensington Garden which is 2 minutes walk away. I recommend it highly, I will be willing to rent it a second time if I visit London again. I had great time in London and the apartment was like home away from home. Joumana Azar
(Property ref: PCT August 2007) 


Great stay. The perfect (reasonably economical) intro to England! Greg Munford
(Property ref: PHL August 2007) 


Appreciate very much having Sara there to help us although we arrived late in the evening. Yes it was a little shabby but we were satisified and the location more than made up for it. Good value I guess Sheryl Walker
(Property ref: BRO August 2007) 


Rosie gave us helpful tips about our stay and was a delight.

We were pleased with our flat and its wonderful location. Traveling with a family, renting a flat is the only way to visit London.

The best testimonial is to say that whenever we visit London, we will use Coach House Rentals. Diane Hovenesian

(Property ref: THD August 2007) 


Rosie - what a star! Excellent! The property was better than any photos could portray, the website description was very accurate. I would not hesitate to recommend your services to my friends and family. The Bermondsey apartment had the best view of london I have ever seen and I will be booking there again should I go back to London. I cannot praise the accomodation and your services enough. Helen Smith
(Property ref: BWE August 2007) 


Given the exchange rate, the price was very high! However, we loved what we got for our money. I will highly recommend Coach House Rentals to all of my friends! I am looking forward to trying one of their apartments in Paris. Catherine Feldman
(Property ref: MPW August 2007) 


It was just beautiful! I don't think I would rent it out if I owned it, but we were truly the beneficiaries. Stephanie Lachtman
(Property ref: PGT August 2007) 


Cedric our meeter was great and even brought us flowers. The meeter/greeter presentation was very helpful, friendly, and not rushed. It was also the reason your campany was recommended to me by a colleague at work.

The property was not our first choice and lacked some features we would have liked. However, your description was very accurate so that we knew eaxctly what we were renting.

We felt that we had a good experience renting from your company and would do so again on another visit to London. Bob Meyers

(Property ref: LAD August 2007) 


Our family of five thoroughly enjoyed staying in the upscale neighborhood of MIL 2. With plenty of room to spread out, it was a great home base for our very busy London days. The master suite is exquisite with a very large and modern bathroom. The kitchen had all the appliances we needed with an added bonus of an excellent bakery just across the street! We'll have fond memories of our visit because of the professional service of CHS London. Susan Romak
(Property ref: MIL 2 August 2007) 


Rosie who met us was great, explained everything, gave suggestions on restaurants which we used. It was great having someone there when we arrived.

The property was exactly as shown on the website, so much better for a family than staying in a hotel!

My family stayed in the apartment on St. George's Square for 10 days in August 2007. It was a wonderful unit, great location and so much better than staying in a hotel! The support we received from Coach House London was much appreciated - suggestions on restaurants, stores in the area and when my purse was stolen!

We will definitely return to London & use Coach House rentals. Lynn & David Anderson

(Property ref: SGS August 2007) 


Cerdic, our greeter, was timely, gracious and helpful.

PCT was a perfect setting for our London vacation. The flat was beautiful and spacious for our family of four. It was also close to the tube and many restaurants and pubs. Enjoy! Janet Nicklo

We enjoyed our family trip to London and the accomodations at the Coach House were exactly as described...charming, good value, and a welcome respite from the activity of the city. Thanks for some great memories!

Having 'our home in London', with all the freedom, privacy and warmth a real home offers, gave a major contribution to making our holiday an unforgettable one for the whole family. Marco Beghi

Wonderful stay and fabulous location! Deborah Ludford
(Property ref: CLT August 2007) 


Mary, our meeter/greeter, was a very pleasant lady and was thorough in showing the place and going over the Welcome Notes. The bouquet of flowers she gave us was a nice touch.

The description and pictures were an almost perfect match. It was just what we expected. We would definitely recommend this property to others.

We recommend Coach House London Vacation Rentals to anyone interested in seeing London as a resident, rather than as a tourist. William Orr


(Property ref: CAM2 July 2007) 


The tube is definitely more than a 15 minute walk - however the bus (19, 319 and 49) was a good way to get to the tube station and was only about a 5 minute walk.

The help with my dental problem was most appreciated. (Thank you Harley) It was so nice to have the space of a townhouse rather than a hotel room for the same cost. Laura Klein

(Property ref: PGT July 2007) 


My husand and I brought our two daughters and both sets of grandparents. The home was lovely and perfect for our large family. With the grandparents, we were concerned about the walk to the tube station. It was a short five minute walk to the station and wonderful cafes. We would definately use Coach House Rentals for our next trip to London and plan to refer friends. Christine Parker
(Property ref: FOS July 2007) 


We will definitely choose the property again on our future trips. Conveniently located. Very nice property. Jeff Fadler
(Property ref: ELG July 2007) 


Thank you Cedric! We ultimately used Waitrose rather than Whole Foods. Whole Foods is in the US, but Waitrose provided us with all that we needed.

We enjoyed our stay in London, and a large part of that was due to the PHL apartment--its locality, size and more. There were 5 in our party, and we all were very comfortable. We even entertained an additional 6 others for a very full house, but it was great fun. We will use Coach House again for our next visit. Thank you Angela and Cedric for all your help. Susan & Stephen Hollister

The property was nice and it matched the description on the web site. Angela Toffolatti
(Property ref: LAD July 2007) 


Brigitte was very nice and helpful. It was a pleasure meeting her.

The London stay was very enjoyable probably due to this house with its welcoming, comfortable and spotlessly clean interior with all mod cons. It is situated in a nice central position but surprisingly free of the noise of the city. So much natural light and a stupendous little garden, with a personal touch to the furnishings make it really special and eminently advisable for prospective occupants. Thank you to the owners and to the excellent CHS London staff. Gianni Gavioli

(Property ref: MAT July 2007) 


Much better than any hotel I have stayed at in London.

The location of the flat was perfect for our family ; great shopping nearby for our teenage daughters, Holland Park for jogging and family walks and within walking distance of bus and tube.

The flat was lovely, comfortable beds, very quiet and a great place to return to after walking around London. We would definitely stay there again.

Everything exceeded our expectations and gave us a great start to our European holiday.

Carole Coates, Bangkok

Sure beats staying in a hotel room for a holiday! Great location, nice and quiet ... close to shops and tube. The kitchen is nice and big - great for a family of 4. We would definitely stay here again. Colin Key

We are seasoned travelers and thus have lots of experience with various travel-related organizations. Coach House is one of the best we have every dealt with. The staff was very professional, helpful, and quick to respond to all our inquiries. The propoerty was perfect for our group and was even better than described. Our security deposit was returned quite promptly, less than a week after we returned home. I would highly recommend Coach House to anyone seeking rental housing in London. ann hardy

Bridget our meeter/greeter was very friendly and helpful. It was wonderful to have a "home base" during our London stay. The flat was comfortable and conveniently located. I would use Coach House again and would recommend it to others without hesitation. Barbara Hanson

The apartment was actually slightly more charming than expected. We were very pleased. We enjoyed the flat and found the service to be excellent. We would recommend Coach House to others. Joseph Fusco

I am very appreciative of the ease of communication over the internet. I was slightly worried that the business was a scam and that there would be no car to meet us or no flat for us to stay in. But it all worked out just fine! Laura Spisak

We loved the property. It was clean and a lovely apartment. Although it was not close to the tube, the buses were easy to use. We had a great stay in London. Gina Christoff

Mary met us when we arrived and scheduled our car service to the Airport for the end of our stay - very helpful. We really enjoyed this unique home and quiet neighborhood location. Being steps away from the rear gate to Holland Park was a treat. We could hear the outdoor theater/opera as we strolled through the gardens-it was more relaxing than our trip to Kew Gardens! The access on foot to 2 different tube stations, groceries, restaurants and a money exchange allowed us to enjoy everything we needed without the use of a car. Laura Foppe

Good location, spacious. A tad more expensive than we are used to in the US. Chris McCubbin

When you book rental propertioes through the web you never really know what you get until you get there. In this case we met a very pleasant surprise. We found all it promised to be and more. Apart from the weather which should be a little better even in the English summer, we had a perfect stay.

Though expensive, well it's London after all, we felt it to be very good value for a family of five and almost a week's stay. Karl Hoelterhoff

It's so unusual to find that a place is actually much nicer than the photos led you to expect. LSS2 is much more spacious and gracious than the photos suggest. We stayed there as a family of four (the kids are 9 and 11) and thought it might be a tight fit -- not a bit of it! Plenty of space, tons of natural light, huge airy high ceilings and fat English sofas for lounging on. The kids adored the place and I've since heard them telling their friends about their "beautiful London apartment." They really looked forward to spending time in it at the end of a day of being dragged through museums and to see famous sights. (And as all parents know, when the kids are happy, everyone's happy.) Everything about LSS2 is classy and elegant -- in fact, the apartment itself wound up being one of the highlights of our trip to London! Anne Strainchamps

The property, though lovely, was probably a little too nice for an 8 year old boy! Great location. Tracey Lembo

Sara did a great job! We had been in communicationg with Mary too, and she was very helful and when our arrival time was moved earlier slightly she was able to arrange for Sara to meet us. (I actually knew Sara from the days I use to live in London.......what a small world!) She did a great job of making us feel welcome and even bought us fresh flowers for the flat....which lasted the whole week!

We loved the photos and description.....and HOPED our expectations would be met....and they were....in abundance!

We loved it!

Feel free to use any of my above comments......

We loved all the traffic on the river that was visible all times of the day! Lovely view and spacious, clean, and comfortable setting! Becky Brown (Brynestad)

We expected the flat to be smaller than the pictures showed and we were amazed at how spacious and true to the pictures the place actually was. It was wonderful.

My 4 sisters and I had such a wonderful time in BWE. It is a beautiful flat in an amazing location. The nearby Southwark Park was wonderful for our morning jogs and the short walk along the Thames to the Tower Bridge was a favorite. Everything was a close walk away. We especially love sitting in the window sills and watching all the boat traffic go by and the amazing views up and down the river. We felt very safe in the neighborhood and enjoyed every minute of our time in Bermondsey. Roberta Brynestad

Our family of 4 stayed at the CAR property. It was very convenient to transportation and yet on a very quiet street even though it was just a block from Victoria Station. The convenience of a small kitchen and laundry facilities plus more space than a hotel would have offered made this a great choice for us! Linda Cagley

Brigette our meeter/greeter was more than helpful and spent extra time to ensure that we were comfortable and well informed as to local stores and restaurants.

Our beautiful flat was exactly as advertised in an equally beautiful neighborhood. Very close to good restaurants, museums and the Underground.

Our experience in London was very much enhanced by the fact that we had a comfortable and safe place to return to every night. I would be happy to recommend your services and this rental property to prospective clients. Henry Sawicki

A perfect spot close to public transportation and a busy city street that is filled with retail shops and restaurants. We enjoyed returning at the end of the day to a comfortable home where we could review the day's events together in the sitting room and pland for the next day's adventures. Very comfortable home. We have already recommended Coach House Rentals to our friends! Christine Fahey

The location and feeling of the place were first class. It made us feel at home away from home. We truly enjoyed it. Alina Bartlett

The house was appreciably nicer than I would have guessed based on the website. I'm not sure if you should add 360 degree video or what, but you are underselling your properties! jon friedman

Coach House Rentals were professional, precise, and informative. Everything they promised was kept. Our stay was stress-free and luxurious. We'd like to recommend their rental vacation services to everyone interested in affordable luxury. Rebecca, Tim, and Sharon Rebecca Mitchell

I researched a lot of lodging options for my family's vacation to London. I'm pretty confident I could not have gotten more lodging for my money than I did with Coach House London and MAR2 location.

It is clear Coach House London knows their business and has thought out all of the details a London vacationer needs to know. They have a superior business model that is focused on the traveler's needs. They provided a great property for a great price and I was able to enjoy my vacation with my family because I wasn't worried about lodging or transportation.

I would definitely go with Coach House London and the MAR 2 property. Rob May

We were very pleased with the flat, as well as the service overall, and will definitely use you again in the future if/when we're in London for a longer stay. Many thanks. Jon Martin

The flat overlooking Thamse River is even more impressive than we had expected.The furnishings are very beautiful and cosy. Karl Köhler

Rosie our meeter/greeter was delightful. The property was exactly as advertised: lovely, welcoming and comfortable. Questions were answered in a timely manner and everyone was most pleasant while doing so. I would happily use Coach House Rentals again when I return to London. Melanie Shoffner

At the airport it was wonderful to see our name held up by our driver and to go straight to the flat.We loved the location: close to grocery shopping and the underground and bus. Nice neighborhood. Relatively quiet. Marie Cape

Thanks we had a good time, and thanks for the quick to return of the damage deposit. We will be back. Sandra Groves

It was so nice to come home to a real home, instead of a hotel room. We woke up to the sound of birds, instead of taxis and buses.Yet, it was extremely convenient to shops and transportation. I would definitely stay here again. Michael and Anna Hardin
