We are from Ireland and Australia, living in London 11 years now. I deliver training to medics and he treats sports injuries. We love music, mountain biking and chilli peppers!!

We love to meet people of different cultures and locals too. We are happy to chat and give you tips on quirky things to do in London. Equally, if you just want quiet time that's okay too.

We hope you enjoy your trip and look forward to welcoming you.

p.s. We invite our guests to send us a postcard from your hometown after your stay to add to our visitor wall :)
