Elegant and sublimely modern, this bright apartment in Chelsea features a beautifully curated interior design and plenty of natural light. Pops of colour in the living room’s cushions and abstract art add a dash of fun to the sophisticated furnishings, while two sets of French doors open up to let the breeze flow through freely. We love that one set of doors opens onto a wrought-iron balcony, a quintessential Kensington touch and makes for an ideal spot for breakfast or sundowners. With a comfortable, pared-back bedroom and a luxurious rainfall shower to wake up to, you’ll feel recharged and ready for a day of sightseeing. Walk seven minutes to shop along the famous King’s Road, or stroll twenty minutes to visit South Kensington’s world-class museums. With plenty of restaurants, bars and boutiques in your neighbourhood too, you’ll want for nothing when it comes to fun and entertainment.

On the prettiest street imaginable, this luxurious home allows families to live the West London dream in the heart of Chelsea. You’re moments away from galleries, boutiques and trendy restaurants as King’s Road is a one-minute walk. Spread across three floors, there are two living rooms so the family can spread out – one for entertaining by the fireplace, and one for reclining in front of the big TV. For a quiet moment, a small office space in the base is secluded away from the rest of the house. There’s plenty of room for the bustle of breakfast time in the big kitchen. A wall of mirrors gives a good sense of space in the formal dining room inside, while the woven wooden walls around the outdoor terrace offer a bit of privacy should you wish to dine alfresco.

Elegant and bright, this lovely studio apartment in Kensington is an ideal base for a couple or solo business traveller looking for a comfortable stay in one of London’s prettiest neighbourhoods. Though compact, this home packs a decorative punch with a neutral palette offset by soft pink accents and large windows letting ample natural light flow in. Mornings call for coffees at the cosy window-side table and catching up on work at the desk, while nighttimes beckon a peaceful night’s sleep in the wonderfully comfortable bed. When it comes to ways of filling your days, you’ve got plenty to choose from within easy reach. South Kensington’s world-class museums are a ten-minute walk away, Kensington Palace and Gardens are a fifteen-minute stroll and Chelsea is a mere twenty minutes away on foot. 


A Touch Of Pink

Situated in affluent South Kensington, boarded by Knightsbridge, Chelsea, Notting Hill and Hyde Park, this effortlessly chic apartment is the perfect place to unwind at the end of a busy day wandering museums, cobbled streets and royal palaces. Inside, there's a real warmth with soft brown tones, dark wood flooring and vintage-style wallpaper. Through to the bedroom, where you'll find more bold choices when it comes to colours and prints. We love the classic look, with baby pink decor and draping curtains ensuring a restful sleep whenever you decide to call it a night. If business is on the agenda, you'll find a dedicated workspace in the living room for client catch-ups and calls. Fix together a hearty breakfast in the fully-equipped kitchen, before mapping out a plan for the day. When you are ready to explore, Hyde Park, just twenty minutes away, is a lovely space to wander after a day spent shopping. Or look around the National History and V&A museums, a thirteen-minute walk from your door, for an afternoon of art and culture. Whatever you choose to fill your day doing, bookmark it with a totter into town and an evening of fine-dining in Covent Garden, less than a twenty-minute tube ride away.

The stone arches leading to the kitchen give the space some Old World charm, while the cubby dining room is as chic as can be. The master bedroom is a masterclass in style with its sumptuous bed and spa-like bathroom, and there’s even a desk space here too should you need to mix business with pleasure. The home also comes with access to the private resident’s garden, a calm oasis of green that invites sunny picnics and quiet mornings catching some rays with a good book. With the city’s high-end shopping streets right on your doorstep – including Harrods a seven-minute walk away – you can indulge in some retail therapy along Brompton Road or on Chelsea’s King’s Road, a ten-minute stroll from your door. Factor in South Kensington’s world-class museums (the V&A is also a ten-minute walk) as well as some of London’s most prestigious restaurants and bars in your neighbourhood, and you’re all set to experience the city in class and style.

In the prestigious neighbourhood of Belgravia, this elegant townhouse is spread over five floors with a small rooftop terrace and three en-suites. We think it's a great choice for a family or group of couples travelling together – you won't get much more central than this, with iconic hotspots like Buckingham Palace and Battersea Park within walking distance. Sloane Square Station is just minutes away on foot and makes for easy exploration, and you'll find a wealth of local shops and restaurants in the surrounding streets.

The Park Keeper

This chic apartment matches its Knightsbridge location perfectly. You'll be just a short walk from Harrods, the Victoria and Albert Museum, Hyde Park, and well-connected Tube stations – if that's not central, we don't know what is. It's set on the ground and lower-ground floors of a Georgian townhouse, so expect original features like bay windows and cornice ceilings. Topping it all off is the private terrace – just the spot for a cup of tea in the sunshine.

Knightsbridge Elegance

Decorated in muted tones, with lavish design details and sumptuous soft furnishings, it’s clear interior design comes naturally to the owners of this elegant home in the heart of Knightsbridge. Step into the open-plan living space and make yourself comfortable on a tan leather armchair with a book pulled from the shelves, before rustling up something tasty in the slick white kitchen. If it’s sunny out, enjoy your lunch in the private garden. 

Head upstairs and you’ll find an office – ideal for those who intend to work during their stay – and two quiet bedrooms. After catching forty winks in the hotel-quality super king-size beds, slip on your shoes and explore your leafy locale. 

You’re a ten-minute walk from Hyde Park and less than fifteen from the Natural History, Victoria and Albert, and Science Museums. In the evening, check out the Michelin Guide restaurants in nearby Chelsea or jump on the tube at South Kensington and enjoy a night of entertainment in the West End.

Welcome Hamper

Situated on the top floor of a Victorian townhouse, this apartment in the heart of Chelsea is mere steps from Sloane Square. Bright, open and super stylish, it brings together contemporary design (the glossy kitchen and marble bathroom) with flourishes of old-world elegance (velvet furnishings and a stunning mantlepiece) for a marriage that's hard to resist. Our favourite spot has to be the study area which has views of the quiet tree-lined streets below from the gothic-style window. You'll feel completely at home here, whether you're gathering for a delicious meal around the dining table or nodding off in the chic bedrooms. And you couldn't ask for a better spot to explore the UK's capital. Culture vultures will relish being a twenty-minute walk from Museum Row, while fashionistas will enjoy strolling down the King's Road, famous for its designer boutiques. Plus the dining options in Chelsea are some of the finest that the city has to offer, so there's something for everyone in this exclusive neighbourhood.

Battersea Hideaway

Nothing is out of place at this central Knightsbridge apartment set in a grand Victorian townhouse. A great option for three couples or friends sharing, each elegant bedroom has a separate bathroom for extra privacy.

Location-wise, the apartment is practically equidistant from South Kensington, Chelsea, and Knightsbridge and just an eight-minute walk from Knightsbridge Underground Station. Take your pick from hotspots including Harrods, Hyde Park, and top museums – it's all just a short walk away. 

Egerton's Place

You’re just a ten-minute walk from South Kensington and its world-famous museums while leafy Hyde Park is less than thirty minutes away. After a day of exploring, you’ll relish coming home for a long soak in the marble-framed bath, followed by a glass of wine and a meal in the serene dining area. Alternatively, throw on your glad rags for a meal out at one of the city's fine dining spots – you have countless options when it comes to restaurants and bars nearby.
