The Barometer is a family home with a capital F. Found on a quiet street in the Finsbury Park neighbourhood, it’s definitely not for people who want to be in the action. If you are, however, looking for a whole house (this one is Victorian) with a lovely garden, you’ve come to the right place. Split across six floors, there’s an abundance of space – we particularly loved the kitchen, which is the heart of the home.

Home truths

    It sleeps seven people, but one guest would have to be a baby

    The small double bed is very small, it will be a squeeze for two adults

    It’s a lived-in family home so there’s going to be some wear and tear here and there

    The kitchen is well-equipped, but we couldn’t find a coffee machine

    Not everyone will love the free work-out – it’s split across six floors

    The location is lovely (especially if you’re looking for somewhere quiet), but it’s not central – it’ll take you about thirty-forty minutes to get into central London by train

    You’ll be required to sign a digital rental agreement from the host prior to your stay for security and insurance purposes. Your host will send this to you after your booking is confirmed

About Stroud Green

Stroud Green is a bit of a local secret. It's a foodie haven in an unpretentious part of North London, just next to Finsbury Park tube station and not far from Islington. There's a very friendly community feel to the area and it still has a real (dare we say authentic) neighbourhood feel. Off the main road with all its many restaurants, you'll find attractive leafy terraces of Victorian houses. Oh and be sure to track down The Faltering Fullback, a charming Irish pub packed with character and an excellent secret garden out the back.
