Vacation rentals with a fire pit in Saint Albans District

Rich was an excellent host with great recommendations and prompt communication. We stayed for 3 nights and thoroughly enjoyed our stay, travelling by train to central London on both days. The location of the bungalow was very quiet with private parking by the house and no passing traffic but only a few minutes' walk from a row of shops and restaurants and the train station. Rich left a wealth of "goodies" in the kitchen for us which was much appreciated.

This place really is wonderfully appointed, all the modern conveniences you could hope for: there are three different ways to make a cup of tea! It takes no time to walk from Winnersh train station, and there’s a large Sainsbury’s supermarket/grocery store just the other side of the tracks. You can fit many cars but you won’t need one. The recommended taxi companies from the house book were super professional, too. Richard and Sarah are extremely accommodating and excellent communicators. I would not hesitate to book their place again, though as my sister only plans on getting married once I doubt the need will arise.

My family and I had a brilliant two weeks stay at Gareth and Adam's house in Hitchin. Gareth and Adam were both brilliant hosts who made us feel completely at home. They went above and beyond our expectations, which made the experience feel more like a five star hotel than an AirBnb. The house is well located, a couple of minutes walk from the train station. We really enjoyed spending the summer evenings in the garden. Highly recommend.

Ramona was so kind. We were traveling on a holiday with young children on an overnight flight. Needless to say a stressful experience but Ramona greeted us early with warm smiles and some basic foods! This was a lifesaver with the kids! The location was gorgeous inside & out- a quick walk to the Hampstead park. A walk down the hill to the bus stop to take you into downtown & all over London. House had everything we needed with outdoor breathing room too. Great place, responsive host, great price! Thank you Ramona!

Was such a beautiful home for a lovely weekend with my girls very clean and comfy and the little touches was adorable especially the welcome treat and the flip flops for hut tub. Easy to communicate with and just a lovely and cosy home. Would highly recommend this place 👌

Marina is a wonderful and exceptionally responsive host — something that's hard to find! She always replied immediately to our questions and didn’t hesitate to send over an electrician right away when there was an issue with the fridge. She even left a cake and a birthday card for my daughter who was celebrating her birthday — such a thoughtful gesture! The house was clean, tidy, and had a warm, family-friendly atmosphere. Highly recommended! ❤️👑

My wife, 1-year-old son, nanny, and I loved our month-long stay at this charming home — truly a gem with lots of amenities and transportation nearby. The neighborhood pub (The Black Lion) is great for a pint, and Mari’s Deli on the corner became our favorite place for a morning cappuccino (tell Mario we say, “Ciao!”). This location is very walkable to just about anything in 10-15 minutes; both Chiswick High Road and Hammersmith King Street, a variety of grocery stores, restaurants, and shops, lovely parks and playgrounds, and convenient tube stops into central London. The house itself is very comfortable: cozy beds, lovely finishes, nice bathrooms, a separate washer dryer (non-the norm!), and plenty of room for three adults and a baby. Our toddler loved playing in the kitchen and garden area, and the house provided a great travel cot and high chair for our little guy.

An extremely enjoyable stay with our family of 6. Kids had a great time and so did we! Pristinely clean and extremely well maintained. 5*

Good accommodation in a beautiful area, very quiet, perfect for a " getaway." Accommodation was very clean.

Lovely overnight stay at Caroline’s hidden gem. Very easy to find, great location for our needs, lovely kitchen and bathroom facilities and great garden space

Cosy twin room, with ensuite, and compact kitchen. Everything was as described and suited us perfectly when visiting friends. Clear communication, and easy to access on arrival.

Overall great place to stay. The apartment was as advertised. Up to date. Spacious. Clean. Weather didn’t allow us to use the rooftop but that is a fantastic feature for warmer months. Parson’s Green is an energetic neighborhood with great food, pubs, bakeries and cafes. The host Sofia was very responsive and helpful. Parking for a car was a bit difficult so I would not recommend having one while staying here.

We spent 3 and a half weeks in this lovely apartment during our trip to London. The apartment was in an excellent and vibrant location with easy access to transportation to all areas of London. It was a good size and very private. The balcony was a treat-we were able to watch the VE Day flyover from there. A great range of food outlets were close by. Communication was excellent throughout with prompt replies to any queries. We would recommend this to anyone wanting a pleasant time in London.

This was a great 2-week stay. The apartment has everything, including a desk where I could write, a real kitchen, and lots of plants. The back yard is private and charming. I slept well, wasn't bothered by neighbors, and got to know Hackney. Alice communicates promptly and thinks ahead.

It was our second time at Renata's, a very sweet hostess with a nice apartment. Our children (2y, 6y, 8y) think it's a great place, it's their cottage in London. Everything is easily accessible, public transportation is very close. We will definitely be back when we go back to London. :)

This is a very nice place: super clean, in a wonderful location, and close to restaurants, shops, and transportation. Rita is extremely responsive and does her utmost to make your visit comfortable. We enjoyed our stay.

We had a lovely stay at Mikila and Nick’s air bnb. Communication was great. The air bnb was immaculate and modern. We loved the little touches included: the milk, butter, bread, treats, cereals and water. The air bnb was also well equipped with shampoo, conditioner, slippers too. Check in was very easy. We loved seeing the ducks in the morning 🦆 Thank you for a lovely stay.

We had a great stay at White Hill Lodge. The directions and check in instructions were spot on, so it was easy enough to find the place. Dom was a great host, who was really lovely and genuinely cared about us making the most of our stay. The local village is beautiful and a stones throw away from lovely countryside walks, where you can take in the views and enjoy the surrounding serenity. The Lodge was clean and perfect for the two of us, with a well fitted-out kitchen, supported by essentials like cling film, foil, milk and cooking oil. The WiFi was great and we had no issues at all during our stay. Shoreham train station is a short walk away and trains to London were quick and reliable, with us returning to Shoreham late at night after watching shows, having no difficulties getting back to the Lodge using public transport. We'd certainly recommend the Lodge for a quiet, tranquil stay, within an easy commute to the capital. Thanks for our stay Dom! All the best!

WOW! What a wonderful few days we had at the forest cabin at Red Kite Retreats. A special weekend for our son’s first birthday and what gorgeous surroundings we were in. The cabin was spotless, beds super comfortable and the cabin had great amenities. We did some lovely walks from the cabin and chilled for the rest of our time and took in the beautiful cosy surroundings. Would highly recommend and hope to go back again one day!

Calm, quiet and well appointed The place is tucked away in the countryside and is peaceful and quiet. There is plenty of space and the kitchen has everything you’d need for an extended stay. The bathroom/laundry was well equipped and spotless, and the bedroom was very comfortable with plenty of storage. I highly recommend this place and would definitely stay again.

A Perfect Bank Holiday Escape – Tranquil, Welcoming, and Memorable We had a fantastic bank holiday weekend at Victoria and Daniel’s beautiful wooden cabin. From the start, the hosts were incredibly thoughtful - offering help with our bags, providing pool floats for our baby, and being on hand for anything we needed. The cabin itself was clean, cosy, and full of character, set in a peaceful area surrounded by nature. We loved the nearby canal walks and having a few great pubs just a short walk away. The garden was especially lovely, perfect for relaxing and soaking up the quiet surroundings. There were a couple of very minor things that could use a little touch-up, but nothing that took away from our experience. Overall, a truly enjoyable and relaxing stay – we’d happily return!

A simple, bright, spacious and immaculately clean studio in a peaceful setting. The village is quaint with many quiet walks and easy access to Cambridge and Saffron Walden. Elmdon also offers an opportunity to see great examples of the regions vernacular architecture, including thatched roofs, decorative pargeting, flintwork and timber framing. It's evident that hosting means more to Fiona than just money. It was a warming experience and we certainly hope to stay here again when we're back in the area.

We had such a lovely time during our stay in this secret garden as Helen describes it! It's so unusual and peaceful 😌 Helen was so friendly and made us feel comfortable and at home! Would most definitely stay here again

Excellent stay, all the little things really topped it off. So peaceful and clean as well and even had some beautiful walks arranged around the stay. Would highly recommend
