Donna's sky garden (and a bedroom)
Double room in quirky 2 bd flat in Peckham.  Close to bars, restaurants and arts stuff. Good transport links to the rest of London and beyond. Great space for relaxing outside if it's warm, a super sociable orange cat, and damn good coffee. If the dates you want to stay aren’t available please message to discuss as I block random dates to avoid back to back bookings!<br /><br /><b>The space</b><br />My spare room is a comfortable and quiet room for 1 or 2 people (1 x double bed). There is space to hang clothes, and store bags under the bed. There is a basket of useful items like USB charger, umbrella, UK plug etc on the shelf.<br /><br />My flat isn't flat, it has quite a lot of stairs. So don’t bring large suitcases you can’t carry! The building was a 3 storey victorian house, then in the 1920s a shopfront was added to the ground floor, more recently converted to a flat. I live on the 2 floors above that. I've changed some of the space  - including access from my small kitchen on to a
It's Peckham. Good balance (at the moment) between arty, edgy and local. My flat is a 5 minute walk from the the amazing Persepolis and the popular Prince of Peckham pub which has great jerk chicken ( and jerk fries, jerk haloumi....) for a south London supper. There are fab fish and chips to be had on Meeting House Lane at Fish and Grill (forget the tourist trap that is Poppies!!!). And there are eels and pies at Manzes for a very London lunch! A variety of local shops serves the cultural mix that is Peckham and the delis and indie shops of Peckham Rye station area and Bellenden Village  are a 15 min walk away. The Bussey Building and Peckham Multi-storey on Rye Lane are a maze of eating, drinking, clubbing, theatre, yoga, rooftop film, artists studios, with occasional fairs and markets. Gentrification hasn't ruined us yet so if you want to stay in a  lively neighbourhood in inner London that probably still doesn't have a hedge fund manager in sight this is it!
I've lived in Peckham since 1999 and in London long enough to consider myself a Londoner. I love this city and have lived, studied or worked all over it. It's also been the subject of a large part of my education and career. So I have a pretty good knowledge about many things London. Some of my London favourites are art exhibitions and events, film festivals, indie music, markets and parks. 
I do like to get out occassionally too! I love travelling - visiting other cities, or more remote adventures. My own experience of travelling and staying in other peoples homes made me decide to do this.
