Hi,

Just checking if anyone could recommend any good services or agents for short-term lets (2-3 months) in London.

Cheers!

Our own esteemed DrSpouse rents a flat out via a firm called Home From Home.

Looking at the vacation rentals on Tripadvisor may also yield success.

Ooh, I don't even need to do my own advertising now!

Mrspouse is in the middle of painting our own particular flat, so if you end up staying there in the next couple of months it will be very shiny.

(I have escaped this by taking myself off to a tropical clime to oversee my grad student's fieldwork. Ah, the hard life of academia).

I used Doctor in the House in Edinburgh (but they do London too) and recommend it.

Your environment sounds vaguely toxic.  Or maybe just characteristically British.

Now that's helpful to know about, if we ever (again) get fed up with our agency...
