2 Bed Luxury Duplex Sleeps 4 / 5 min walk FAST CHILTERN LINE - Marylebone 25 min

This lovely apartment will serve you well for a stay in a gorgeous little village close to London. It is comfortable and well located for public transport and has everything you will need for a happy break for whatever reason you have come to stay with us. It is a perfect pied-a-terre for anyone working close by or commuting to London and is very well placed for all the many film studios nearby: Warner Studios, Pinewood, Teddington etc.

If you are travelling for a holiday, Harry Potter World, Legoland, Windsor and Henley are all close as well as the Chilterns and all the lovely walks around here.

Many also stay when they are having work done in their own home and need to escape or when visiting friends and relatives who cannot accommodate them in their own homes.

This apartment is a great option: The Fast Chiltern Line, Marylebone train will get you to London Marylebone in 25 minutes, and returning you can enjoy quiet, relaxing evenings here in a small leafy village with everything you need at your fingertips. Shops, restaurants, coffee shops, supermarkets, are all a stones throw from your front door!

We are aiming for a high-end Luxury look and feel but we are working towards that end goal. We are not quite there yet, as it is an ongoing project. The photos will however show you that is already lovely and just going to get better and better! The great feedback we have on this site (and others) so far, shows we are doing a great job and we have not got too far to go now to create the ultimate in a luxury holiday home. Please look at our feedback and see for yourself.

There are 2 double bedrooms in this property with 1 shared bathroom.

We can sleep up to 6 (4 adults + 2 children). The 2 small children can sleep on the sofa-bed in the Sitting Room which is a very spacious room. The Dining table is in this room too, with seating for 6 when extended or as a round table for 4 people.

The kitchen has all the modern conveniences for your comfort and a lovely central Breakfast Bar for that first cup of morning coffee with seating for 2.

The property is actually a maisonette on 2 floors above a Book shop but Chorleywood is a very quiet area so it is not a High Street as such - more a quiet residential area with a few shops for your convenience.

If you bring a car, parking is on the street (abide by the parking restrictions) but in the main, if you are out and about during the day it should not affect you too much as the restrictions are mainly to stop commuter parking.

If you require more long-term parking during your stay you can park in the station car park for 24 hours at a time or park your car a short distance away where there are no restrictions and then walk back.

In terms of speedy access to London, this is about as good as it gets! The excellent Chiltern Line stops here and it takes only 25 minutes to Marylebone via a very direct journey of only 2 stops. From Marylebone you have access to the Underground and the whole of London is at your disposal.

This is an area well-renown for its excellent walking and rambling routes. The lovely Chorleywood Common is a five minute walk and the Chiltern Hills are not far away and are truly beautiful and a must see. As is other areas such as Burnham Beaches, Aldenham Country Park and many other lovely places around.

Harry Potter World is a 10-15 minute drive (5 miles away) or a taxi will not cost much and is very convenient if you do not have a car.

You can enjoy the many quaint English Pubs in this area too. The Stag (a mile up the hill in Heronsgate) is a favourite and the Rose and Crown right on the Common is lovely on a sunny day as you can sit outside and enjoy the Common right in your view. Other favourites like the Black Horse offers a lovely cosy feel and a raging feel on a cold winters day when you need warming after your bracing walk to get there. There is also the Red Lion and the Bedford Arms in Chenies (a short 5 minute Drive), both serving great food and well worth a visit.

The Artichoke on Croxley Green is not far away by car and the food is great there too!

Great location for visiting family and London
We were visiting family in Chorleywood and didn’t have a car. The flat was perfectly positioned near shops, family home and train station. It was clean, warm and comfortable and our host very responsive. Great stay all round

Great location
Apartment was lovely and central. Couldn’t find tv remote which was a bit of a pain. Parking was also a bit of a bind trying to find where we could and couldn’t park and having to move the car after periods of time. If you don’t have a car then the location is great.

A Fabulous Sequel
It was our second stay at Caroline's property, and we can honestly say it was so hard to leave! We love the space - it's cozy, clean, comfortable, and offers that extra special welcoming touch. It truly feels like a home away from home. The convenience of the location - from the food/grocery selection right outside to the train station around the corner - is such a gift given that we weren't renting a car. We love the charm of Chorleywood. Caroline was amazing about answering questions quickly for our time-traveled addled brains. Plus, the neighbors are lovely. We can't wait to visit again.

Lovely flat in a great location :)
The information and directions Caroline sent us prior to our arrival were great. The flat was very homely and was well equipped which suited us fine as we were staying for 10 days. We were able to cook in the lovely kitchen, do washing and relax watching tv. The many choices of takeaway virtually on the doorstep were also great as were the lovely cafe's just across the road. There was also a convenience store a couple of minutes walk from the flat that seemed to have most things we needed. The station was only a 5 minute walk from the flat which made it easy when we were travelling to London for the day. Unfortunately parking was an issue but we were able to find a spot not too far from the flat and on certain days we were able to park outside the flat. Caroline had warned us about the parking so it didn't come as a shock when we arrived. An enjoyable stay was had by all and should we find ourselves back in the U.K. in the near future we would certainly look at staying in Caroline's property in Chorleywood.

A truly wonderful experience
It was our first VRBO experience as we have always traditionally stayed with family, and Caroline was a truly amazing host. We have always preferred the "time share/apartment" style space when travelling for a longer stretch. While the walk in and outside was a bit unusual, the space itself was cozy and welcoming, and we all just loved staying there. Whenever we had questions, Caroline was there to answer promptly. There was a great variety of stores/food options right at our doorstep whether we wanted to eat in or take out, and the train was right around the corner. There are also some beautiful walks nearby. All in all, we loved it and will definitely be back.

Chorleywood Flat
The flat met our family's needs (parents, daughter and husband) as we attended the Wedding Celebration of our other daughter in the area. The property was as described and set on two levels with the two bedrooms and bathroom on the above level. The master bedroom was very large which was great for us. Caroline was great addressing a small matter that arose during our stay and also quick to provide a refund when we adjusted our dates early on. My only disappointment was the area outside where you enter the flat, which was the view from the kitchen and smaller bedroom, where the neighbourhood stored lumber and scrap wood. Otherwise, a great stay!

Caroline’s apartment was perfect for our 4 night stay over Christmas. The property is beautifully decorated and has everything you could need. Caroline even managed to get an electrician in on Christmas Eve when there was an issue with the lights upstairs. Highly recommended.

Chorleywood is DELIGHTFUL
This property was the PERFECT place to stay on our trip to London. We got to truly enjoy a small village atmosphere with simple easy travel to London for our days' excitement. Chorleywod is a delight and this property has the perfect location. coffee and a delightful bakery across the street, multiple restaurants down below the flats, four pubs in reasonable walking distance... Rail is a 7 minute walk from the property and you can ride all day for about 8 pounds. Definitely worth the walk to go to Rose and Crown and White Horse pubs, excellent cask ales and incredible foods (reservation required for Rose & Crown). The unit was great, nice fully equipped kitchen, plenty of room for four, comfortable bath and shower, towel heater, and very nice master with very comfortable bed and a look out over the high street. Host was great with good instructions for access (key in lockbox) and responsive to phone calls (not very responsive to VRBO messaging). Unit was very clean. I truly hope that we can stay again, I could have enjoyed a full week in Chorleywood alone! Pro tips: get a punch card at Rootz coffee across the street and earn a free drink, get the ham and chese croissant at the Simmons bakery across the street (you're welcome), book a car with tudor/area cars to/from heathrow, get an oyster card for the public transportation (underground, chiltern line rail, buses, boats). You WILL enjoy your stay!

Lovely property, perfect location, felt like home but needs a little attention.
This property had a lovely, warm style and feels very spacious. Good quality furniture and fittings and the most amazingly comfortable master bedroom. The location right on the high street is ideal. There’s just a few areas where it looks like some work could be done to finish it off... there’s a mirror not hung and areas of paintwork that need redoing. These are very small pointers that really didn’t affect our stay in any way but would just make the whole place perfect.

Cute place to stay.
This unit was basically like it was described. The location was perfect if you are looking for easy access into London. The village is cute with easy to get to shops, including a great bakery at the end of the street. The master bedroom is fantastic, with a huge comfortable bed and plenty of storage. The bathroom, obviously newly remodeled, was also wonderful. The kitchen could use a little redoing but it was functional, although it’s hard to cook anything because all the markings have rubbed off the cooker/stove. You have to use some guess work to cook. The flat is very bright and airy. The living room was nice, however the furniture was not comfortable. But then again, we weren’t there to hang out on the furniture. The one thing the unit it isn’t, however, is quiet. While the high street it sits on gets quiet in the evenings, the delivery trucks start pulling in to all the shops situated below about 4:30 am. Very noisy. I did notice that I started to get used to the noise after 4th or 5th day. I tried to email the owner twice while staying at the apartment, but it neither was ever answered. As it wasn’t an emergency, I didn’t bother to call. All in all, a cute place to stay for a long weekend.

Not a luxury experience!
The owner was pleasant and welcoming. However, our experience was very disappointing, especially as we booked for 8 nights whilst having the builders in at home and we had naturally expected luxury. The main living room lights were not working on the first evening even though this was known by the owner. That evening we suffered from the noisy neighbours and their children through until late, presumably due to the thin walls. Within a few days one of the blinds in the living room, which already had a broken slat, literally fell down when we tried to use it; again the owner confirmed that this had happened a few times. For days we could not get warm in the sitting room, especially as there are clear instructions "not to set the radiators above 4, otherwise the system will shut down". After two attempts to get this resolved we were given two fan heaters. Reliable and effective heating is a basic requirement, not a luxury. The kitchen was a let-down: the cooker is so old that the symbols are illegible which made living there difficult and the back of one of the kitchen units is falling off. There were lots of little things that fell below "luxury". e.g. There was no blind in the bathroom despite it overlooking the open terrace where people access these properties and other blocks of flats nearby. The main bedroom had no accessible socket near to the mirror. At the rental price of this property we had expected far more. We then moved on to a different property which was immaculate and definitely luxurious, despite the owners not claiming that it was. Very disappointed by this experience so cannot recommend. Some way to go to attain true luxury. Good points: Master bed is extremely comfortable; house was clean, pleasantly furnished and presentable. A brand new bathroom has also just been installed which is attractive.

I would highly recommend this flat!
The flat is clean, comfortable and centrally located. Caroline has been extremely accommodating with any of our out of the box requests/needs. The tube is right around the corner, well within walking distance. Upon our arrival we were greeted with bread, eggs, milk, tea and a few other staples. That was much appreciated. I would definitely stay here again and will highly recommend others to do so if they have the opportunity!
