Description Downhills Way: London

This three-storey house is large enough to accommodate all your loved-ones – so, whether you're hosting a family get-together or a trip with your best friends, this home is ready to welcome the whole crowd. The interior is bright and cheerful, and each bedroom has its own theme, with plenty of quirky vintage touches. You'll love relaxing in the garden with a cool drink on sunny afternoons, or gathering in the dining area – the sweet hosts even provide breakfast and home-made brownies for you to enjoy. The surrounding area is quiet and leafy, but you'll still find plenty of local coffee shops, pubs and markets to explore. Plus, Alexandra Palace and the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium are within walking distance – and, if you want to go into central London, the tube journey will take around thirty-five minutes.

Home truths:
* This house is spread across three floors, so guests will need to be happy with some stairs
* The air conditioning is just in the kitchen
*Some of the guests will be sleeping on sofa beds or futons
*This home is in the suburbs, rather than central London
*Pets may be allowed – ask your host in advance
*You can't use the garden after 8pm, as noise can travel and disturb the neighbours
*There are security cameras in the front and back gardens
