Vacation rentals with breakfast in St Albans

Shirley is a lovely and gentle lady. I came to London to settle down and have been staying here for about a month while looking for my next rental. I feel at home with her, especially when we watch TV during dinner time. Haha.

Everything was impeccable. The room, and house in general, was extremely cozy and warm. Jane was a kind and delightful host. Highly recommended for those who enjoy the peace and quiet. Thank you so much for the great, albeit brief, stay! Location was amazingly close to museums, great neighbourhood pubs and restaurants— all within comfortable walking distance.

Me, my wife and our 3 boys loved our stay here. Only a few minutes drive from Legoland the place was easy to find and very close to a Harvester restaurant and local shops. Ed and Sophia were friendly and responsive to any questions we had, and our kids loved the house. would definitely recommend staying here.

There is a gate to get on the property and we were unable to call Miranda when at the gate due to poor reception. I imagine this was because we are from the US and ATT is our carrier and I suppose England does not have a lot of ATT towers for cellular. We were unable to make phone contact at the gate and drove about 5 or so minutes into town to get good phone coverage and drove back. The house was clean and in a pleasant area. Miranda was most helpful.

for me it was the second time I came to Lynn and Gavin, at the end of 2023 I would have been able to meet friendly, family hospitality! This time I came back with my family and this time we all enjoyed their kindness, hospitality, beautiful and cozy house accompanied by a nice breakfast every morning! A real added value to start your day asleep, a nice coffee, peace and quiet with a beautiful garden from the back, accompanied by 2 lovely people. Thanks for another nice, nice experience ! We will definitely come back, much love Steven, Veerle, Matteo and Mauro

The host was very nice, we had a great time! There’s a fried chicken place nearby that’s cheap and good too. Everything is well prepared and is very clean when we checked in. The location is walkable to both the train station and bus station.

This is the best of old fashioned BnBs, in a real person's real home. One host, one guest, friendly discussion over a civilised breakfast. Quiet street just off a big park, with a bus route on the other side of the park. Less than 30 minutes' walk to the station. So far, so good. AND THEN! An idyllic little river at the bottom of the garden (not the Thames); Andrea kindly lent me her kayak. I paddled a little way upstream, and then, oops, swam back. The brook is perfect for both activities, depending on your skill. Andrea hosed me down without a fuss. I couldn't ask for a better host.

Mara is a wonderful host she has a lovely house I found the whole experience really good, very clean comfy bed, a nice room & Mara is extremely helpful & nice five stars from me.

This is a lovely apartment right on Church Street with amazing views out over London. The place was clean and has a really comfy bed and decent TV and speakers. Alex couldn’t have been more helpful and seems a great host. 100% recommend.

This flat was very comfortable for our party of three. The kitchen was well appointed and fully functional. The bed was comfortable. The bathroom was clean. The location was very convenient to portabello road and it’s many shops and eateries and convenient to bus and tube lines. Check in and out were easy.

What a great place to stay! Had everything you could need and the location was perfect. Walking distance to Marlow and excellent links to M4/40. All in all it was a pleasure to stay here. Sarah was extremely efficient and helpful which made it even more perfect! Thank you Sarah for everything

Very clean and nice apartment! Good location and easy check-in and check-out.

We spent a week at Wim’s place, and a few things stood out. Wim is a warm and excellent communicator. His directions were very clear and useful, and he made recommendations for local activities as well. He’s very responsive and it was very easy for us to get in touch with him anytime before and during the trip. The location is fantastic! 2-3 minutes walk from Leicester square station, and with plenty of walkable streets and things to do! The apartment itself was very practical and very nicely stocked. We really felt at home coming back to the apartment after busy days of walking and sightseeing. If back in London, will surely book it again!

We loved our stay. James was wonderful, helped us find a pub still serving food when we arrived late from the airport. Much appreciated the well stocked kitchen. Easy walk into Henley. Would definitely stay again.

We enjoyed our second stay at Helens apartment, fantastic property very well equipped with everything you need and more , very good location and Helen is a very responsive , friendly and helpful host. Thank you

Our family (2 adults with 3 teenagers) stayed at Jen & Matt’s place for 6 nights in March 2025. It was perfect for us. Lots of space and all the amenities we needed. We were on an early arriving flight and they allowed us early access to the flat, which was a lifesaver for that first day. The flat is in a lovely family-oriented neighbourhood with the beautiful Queen’s Park nearby. It is totally outside of the hustle and bustle of London, but right on the Bakerloo Line which allows super easy access to all the sights. It is also on the Lionness line which takes you directly to Watford Junction where you catch the shuttle to Warner Bros Studios to visit the Harry Potter sets. It couldn’t be better situated in my opinion. Jen & Matt provided milk, eggs, butter, jam, crumpets, tea and coffee to get us started, which was a really nice touch. There is a Tesco Express nearby, so it was easy to buy groceries. I did a load of laundry and everything worked fine. Highly recommend!

Deborah was PHENOMENAL!!! It was an absolute joy and privilege to stay in her beautiful home in Hampstead. She is a seasoned and passionate host who loves getting to know her guests and curated an experience tailored to our interests. Deborah went out of her way to give us local recommendations, make restaurant reservations, and commuting tips. Her home is elegant, cozy, and very clean with several accommodations. I’m looking forward to staying with her when I visit Hampstead again in the future.

Stay at Margaret’s was amazing. She was very attentive and welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. 10/10 recommend :)

Fiona was a stellar host. The room was extremely comfortable, clean and quiet, and the breakfast in the morning was excellent. We very much enjoyed chatting to Fiona over breakfast and appreciated any advice given on how to get around the city. An amazing experience which we would be happy to repeat when going back to London. Many thanks!

Cute Annexe in the countryside. very quiet, warm and cosy, and the array of lamps really accentuated this. nice large dining lounge space and comfortable bed. lovely little extras with the local apple juice , butter, bread and milk etc with a nespresso coffee machine. towels are very fluffy and large too. davina was very helpful and her washing up fairy did a magical job.

Very nice place and people to live with! Clean, comfortable bed, very god breakfast! The only things to say something about is that it is a bit of from London city ( half an hour with train to Victoria station) and the train passes just outside. But Sally have thought of everything and got earplugs ready! Thank you for a very nice stay in your house! Margareta and Börje

I had a very pleasant stay, David's place is bright and airy but cosy at the same time. Great breakfast and lovely hosts.

We had a lovely stay in Avril’s place. Avril was a wonderful host - communicative, friendly and flexible with check in and out times. We appreciated touches like nespresso pods, tea and The White Company products in the bathrooms. This was a great location to stay in if you want to be close to Tring or the Pendley Manor Hotel. We were staying for a wedding being held at the hotel and were less than a 5 minute drive from both. Avril helpfully recommended a taxi service which we used multiple times. Highly recommend!

Verna was so helpful and even brought us an iron to borrow in an emergency! Really easy to find with the instructions and lots of lovely touches
