This penthouse apartment boasts views of Islington from every window. It’s an attractive, light-filled home in an excellent location, a few minutes on foot from pubs, restaurants, and shops. Angel Tube station is a twelve-minute walk away, giving you easy access to the rest of London. The apartment boasts a terrace, perfect for enjoying warm weather and unwinding after seeing the sights of the city. Modern and comfortable, this apartment features a kitchen with top-of-the-line appliances and desks in each bedroom. 

London Panorama

Situated in between Newington Green and Canonbury, this apartment is within walking distance of a variety of green spaces, as well as cafes and restaurants. For football fans, the Emirates Stadium is also a short drive away, and if you want to explore more of London, Canonbury Station is a quick stroll from this home. This place has a lived-in feel, which gives it a homely atmosphere, and if you need to catch up on work while in London, one of the bedrooms has a desk.

Odds-On Favourite	

Bright and colourful, this trendsetting apartment is the perfect spot to take a well-earned break. Stepping in to look around the decor, you'll notice the eclectic artwork, vibrant scatter cushions and chic wood-framed sofa. But it's the little things that we really love about this cosy home – from the curated plants to the welcome hamper treats and breakfast tray – the place calls out comfort and a keen eye for detail. Find a sunny spot by the window to catch up on literature, play games and generally kick back. Upstairs, you'll find a stylish bedroom with pops of orange, a quirky painting and vintage radio. Located in the leafy borough of Canonbury, once home to George Orwell, you will be within easy reach of Essex Road, Highbury & Islington and Shoreditch. Take the sixteen-minute tube ride to hipper-than-hip Shoreditch High Street, discovering fashionable boutiques, trendy bars and artisan coffee shops. Out and about or snuggled up indoors, any day is made better bookmarked with a long soak in the swanky bathtub.  

The Ginger Meggs

Fans of Arsenal will be over the moon with this home's location, just a six-minute walk from the team's stadium. However, that's far from the apartment's only selling point. Many of the Georgian building's original features have been retained, such as the ornate fireplace and tall windows that gift the space with natural light. The host has done an excellent job with the contemporary interior design full of rich colours and plush furnishings, so much so that it would have even the most diehard of Tottenham supporters nodding their approval. Aside from football, guests should take advantage of being only fifteen minutes from Finsbury Park, or just under twenty from the beginning of Upper Street, which has a wealth of restaurants, charming boutiques and theatres to discover.

Highbury Library

This home is bright and charming, with its minimalist styling warmed by your host’s lovely artistic sensibilities – his own beautiful photographs and personal art collection decorate the walls, along with a set of treasures collected from his journeys travelling the world. We especially love the large sunny balcony and its comfortable patio set – ideal for newspaper and coffee mornings or pre-dinner drinks. There’s also a sleek well-equipped kitchen, so stream your playlist on the speakers while you chop up some vegetables and then set the glass living room table for dinner. If you’d rather eat out, you’re in the heart of Islington with plenty of varied and delicious dining options all around you. You’ll find a more local, lived-in neighbourhood here, but the nearby Northern line connects you to the hub of the city easily. Spend mornings wandering along the Regent’s Canal, an eight-minute walk away, and evenings exploring the nearby pubs and bars. 

Mandalay

Located on a peaceful square in a historic area of London, this beautiful green oasis offers the best of both worlds with its large tranquil garden for quiet, relaxing hours, and its proximity to central London for exploring all the sights and attractions on offer. Why not start your mornings here with a cup of English breakfast tea at the kitchen island before you head out for the day? On warmer, sunny days you can even begin your days with an alfresco breakfast on the garden terrace. 

Explore Highbury and Islington – which can be reached on foot within six minutes – where you can enjoy the lovely Highbury fields, or drink and dine in one of the many bars and restaurants on the trendy Upper Street. Then, hop on the tube to roam the rest of the city including Soho and Covent Garden, which are both reachable in roughly twenty-three minutes via the London Underground.

After a busy day of sightseeing, retire back to the home and relax in the spacious living area. Catch up on any important work at the dedicated desk space nook, or entertain one another with cheerful tunes on the piano. We would love to dine alfresco in the evening if the weather is warm enough, to take full advantage of the amazing garden space that this home has to offer.

As the Garden Grows

This cosy and compact studio apartment offers a well-connected city stay. From here, it’s just a fifteen-minute walk to Highbury & Islington station. There’s a fantastic selection of restaurants, cafes and shops in the neighbourhood, while the close proximity to the Emirates Stadium means this is a great option for football fans. Wherever the day takes you, this apartment offers a simple and snug base to call home. It’s worth noting there’s no living room here, but it’s well equipped for solo travellers and couples.

Ivy Heart

Family homes don't come any prettier. Located on a Victorian-terrace street just north of Islington’s chichi shops and restaurants, the house is entered via a stained-glass door. Things are equally attractive inside, with vivid bursts of colour among whitewashed walls. Guests can gather in an open-plan kitchen, swing in the garden hammock or retreat to comfy bedrooms – one boasting bunks. There are also luxurious bathrooms, and a great sound system. It’s a ten-minute walk to the Underground, and trains to Central London.

Islington White

On the leafy streets of north London, this traditional home has been lovingly restored into a private city sanctuary. 

Spread across four floors, the owners have retained the original period features whilst integrating a range of personal touches and contemporary comforts. From the light-dappled rooms and soft natural tones to the art and objects, every detail has been considered to enrich daily living with joy and ease. And with multiple living spaces alongside a fully equipped kitchen and three snug bedrooms, this is the kind of space that inspires you to settle in and make it your own. 

Wake up to views across the towering trees, savour the tranquillity of the garden, relax in the bath and come together for candlelit meals and cosy evenings by the fire. However you choose to spend your time here, every moment promises to be enriched by the effortless style and calm simplicity of this space. 

From here, stroll along the atmospheric streets of Canonbury to Islington’s vibrant Upper Street. From organic shops, boutiques and markets, to galleries and restaurants, this is the perfect setting to experience the magic of London whilst connecting with a thriving community. There’s also easy access to the New River Walk – bringing a wonderful burst of natural beauty to your city stay. 

Breathe & Flow

This ground-floor apartment in a Georgian townhouse guarantees a stay to remember. Not only is the home a ten-minute walk from Islington’s pubs, bars and eateries and around nine minutes on the tube to Oxford Circus, but the private garden features a seating area and a barbecue. Head inside, and you’ll find a desk for remote workers and a fully equipped kitchen for when you fancy dining in. If you’ll be staying as a group of three, one will be on the sofa bed in the living space – fine for a short break, but something to consider if you’re planning an extended visit.


Paper White

For a few days you can pretend to be a Count or a Duchess presiding the most charming family mansion. You can enjoy a tremendous garden, a Mediterranean dining area and the sumptuous feeling of a distant period. 

The Majestic

Experience the buzz and excitement of Central London from this chic apartment located in the heart of Covent Garden. A wonderful base for those looking to be within easy walking distance of some of the city’s best sights, this home is as comfortable as it is stylish with its wood floors, contemporary furnishings and ample natural light. We love the sociable open-plan layout of the main living room and the kitchen’s glossy white cabinetry that makes the space sparkle. The window-side dining table is all set to host intimate soirées beneath the fashionable pendant feature lighting while the sofa is where you’ll want to kick up your feet with a glass of wine after a long day of sightseeing. With a pared-back yet elegant bedroom as well as a glitzy en-suite to boot, you’re all set for a care-free relaxing stay. Outside of your home, Covent Garden Market is a one-minute walk away, bustling Leicester Square is a three-minute stroll and Soho’s eclectic bars and shops are just fourteen minutes away on foot.
