A word from the owner....

"We've absolutely adored living in this area and it has so much to offer, The local E17 supermarket 2 minutes walk is fine competition to any Whole Foods, we spend longer than we should looking at the different produce and fresh fruit and veg, Wood street coffee round the corner has provided us excellent coffee and breakfast over the years, normally to recover from a fun nights in the breweries, which we can roll into from our doorstep! Have Lloyd park and the wet lands on our door step has been a blessing for long weekend walks and picnics!"
