Depending on your past experiences with city apartments, brightness might not be a quality you associate with urban homes. However, this Crouch End address is wonderfully light and airy.

The open-concept living area, for example, is treated to the double whammy of a skylight in the vaulted ceiling and a bay window. The bountiful amount of natural illumination is accentuated by the cleansingly white walls and a well-placed mirror. The minimalist kitchen and parquet flooring work very well in this space, too.

Elsewhere, the bedrooms and bathrooms are a lot more colourful, and the master even has a small balcony complete with some seating. If somebody has already laid claim to that space, simply treat yourself to a long soak in the elegant freestanding tub.

There's plenty to see in this corner of North London, too. Alexandra Palace and its surrounding parkland take half an hour to reach on foot and reward those who have made the ascent with wonderful views of the UK's capital. The surrounding neighbourhood of Crouch End has a plethora of quirky cafes, small cinemas and globe-trotting restaurants.

Noelle is a beautifully presented home with some fabulous architectural features, such as the traditional bay windows, high ceilings and cornicing. We were very impressed with the spotless condition of the home, which you can tell your host has taken a lot of pride in. The style is elegant and understated, with a French-country chicness. We think the home will suit a solo traveller or couple who want to be slightly further out from the hustle and bustle, as this North London home will provide a quiet, residential experience.

Noelle

With leafy gardens, Georgian architecture, and literary connections, Highgate Village is the place to be for nature and history lovers. For the arts, this home is just an eleven-minute stroll to Highgate Contemporary Art Gallery, while Jacksons Lane Arts Centre is a cultural hub two minutes from your door. Dickens and Byron frequented the taverns around here, but there are still plenty of gastro pubs and restaurants for those with modern tastes – as well as this apartment. 

Behind the traditional red-brick Victorian facade of the building, you’ll be surprised at the contrast. Your chic living space features ghost chairs and glass tabletops, with high ceilings and an understated colour palette creating a feeling of zen. But original features have not been forgotten – we love the large period windows that allow light to flood in, as well as the ornate fireplace with carved ironwork and antique ceramic tiles.

After a few glasses of English sparkling wine on the mid-century sofa, it might be time for a lie-down. In soothing neutral colour schemes, and with views of lush foliage, both bedrooms have a calming ambience. You can’t beat a peaceful night's sleep after an evening of culture and cocktails in this tranquil region of North London.

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.

This home is just a three-minute walk from the lush greenery of Hampstead Heath, where you can swim in natural pools, head to the striking viewpoint at Parliament Hill, or simply lose yourself in the dappled light of the walking trails. In a majestic red-brick building that feels quintessentially English, this charming garden flat is the perfect base for discovering the delights of your locale. Inside, the modern decor feels understated and pretty zen overall, but you’ll find quirky little touches like colourful, graphic artwork and funky fringed cushions. But our favourite spot has to be the outdoor space. Enclosed by a wooden fence with ivy flowing over the edges, this wooden patio feels like a secret garden escape. Sip a gin and tonic as you wait for the barbecue to heat up – you could even lie back in the hammock and close your eyes for a minute... If you do fancy a day out of elegant West London, take an eight-minute walk to Hampstead tube station and explore the city with ease. 

Ivy & Moss

Inside, bespoke pieces of art abound with countless books and board games to enjoy in the open-plan living space. Open up the bi-fold doors to step out onto a plant-filled courtyard garden. This is the ideal spot to catch some rays over your morning coffee or toast to your cool, serene pad over sundowners and a barbecue come nightfall. The kitchen, meanwhile, looks like a piece of art in its own right with its artisan breakfast bar, while the long wooden dining room table calls for feasts aplenty amidst its collection of curios and portraits. Upstairs, the master bedroom is a masterclass in pared-back style with letterbox windows proffering leafy views and huge glass doors that lead out onto a private balcony.

With an equally pretty second bedroom and a boudoir-style master bathroom whose tub invites long soaks with a glass of bubbly after a day of sightseeing, you’ll be settling into the laid-back Hackney lifestyle in no time. Speaking of exploring, take afternoon strolls through leafy London Fields (a one-minute walk away) where a public basketball court and a lido offer a range of leisurely pursuits, while beautiful Victoria Park is only twelve minutes away on foot, Netil Market is a six-minute walk where food and craft stalls wait to be discovered and Regent’s Canal is nine minutes from your door. With plenty of restaurants, waterside pubs and independent shops to explore nearby as well, you’ve got everything you need for a good time.


Art Fields

Nestled between King's Cross and Camden, this home puts Regent's Canal on your doorstep – and we mean that quite literally. Wake up and enjoy a morning coffee or end the day with an evening sundowner on the private balcony, all while overlooking the water. Head inside and you'll find a stylish and bright living area packed with all the essentials. Each bedroom is contemporary and comfortable, with the option to arrange the beds as either super kings or twins. Factor in the convenient location close to transport links and the eateries in Granary Square, and this place is hard to beat.

Bursting with sunlight and high ceilings, this apartment is a real gem. It's set on the first floor of a Grade II-listed building, offering more than enough space for a couple. Stacked bookshelves provide entertainment when you're not out and about, while the dining table by the sash window makes a great spot to work from home. As for location, you'll be based on a tree-lined street in leafy Islington. Shops, pubs and cafes on Upper Street are a five-minute walk away. Or, for adventures further afield, Highbury and Islington Station is less than ten minutes on foot.

The Islington Rose

Underfloor Heating

This beautiful Victorian home in Walthamstow is a treat for families looking to make the most of the area’s stunning nature and shop-lined streets offering a plethora of cute cafés and cosy restaurants. 

Wonderfully renovated with a keen eye for design, every inch of this home has been curated with calm relaxation in mind. We love the incredible amount of light that flows in through the living room’s bay windows, creating the perfect setting for lazy mornings on the sofa with a mug of tea and one of the many books on the shelves. 

Step through to the stylish open-plan kitchen area with its polished concrete floors and underfloor heating for an even more dazzling display of light with sunlight streaming in through the skylights and the glass doors leading out onto a private leafy garden. This is the perfect spot to enjoy sunny barbecues, lawn games and plenty of fun for little ones on the trampoline. And should the weather turn, there’s plenty to keep all ages entertained inside with toys, books and everyone’s favourite streaming services. 

When it’s time for bed, head upstairs to the comfortable dressed bedrooms – one of which is specially kitted out for younger members of the family – and wake up to the promise of a relaxing soak under the metro-tiled bathroom’s rainfall shower. 

While you could easily while away whole days in your welcoming home, venture out to explore the many sights nearby. The William Morris Gallery is an eleven-minute walk, Walthamstow Village is a sixteen-minute stroll and Walthamstow Wetlands – Europe's largest urban wetlands –  is fifteen minutes away on foot. And should you wish to spend a day in the heart of buzzing Central London, you need only hop on the Victoria Line to be whisked away to Oxford Circus in twenty-two minutes.

This is a soulful space for those after a more alternative place to stay when they're visiting the UK's capital. Part of a converted former piano factory, the interior is instantly uplifting thanks to the array of bold modern artwork, statement wallpaper and house plants dotted about. You can tell it's been put together by somebody with an artistic disposition. It's up on the second floor with views from the Juliet balconies over the rooftops of Stoke Newington, a quiet neighbourhood with a great village vibe.

Private Dryer

This cosy apartment is perfectly placed for a wholesome escape in the English capital.

It marries the tranquility of a country town with the excitement and convenience of a sprawling metropolis.

Further along the high street, the lush greenery of Hampstead Heath is only a ten-minute walk away. Spend sunny days with a picnic on the grass or go for a dip in the fresh ponds to cool off.

Be warned, that view inspires you to make your way into the centre of the city. Soho, Kings Cross and Camden are all easily reached via public transport, or you can venture further towards the cool districts of East London.

The East Branch

Shared Washing Machine

This period apartment is a comforting base for a family or group of friends visiting the city. It’s just a five-minute stroll from Hampstead Heath and less than twenty-five minutes away from Camden Market on foot. You can easily explore London from here – Belsize Park Tube station is a fourteen-minute walk, and the amenities of South End Green and Hampstead High Street are also within minutes by foot. Back home, the grand living area is a charming space to hang out after a busy day of sightseeing. There's also a laptop desk space for those travelling for work. Keep in mind that the small double bedroom is a little bit of a squeeze fitting a double bedroom, but overall this one's a great pick for three people.

A Gilded Age

Balcony / Patio

When you’re staying just six minutes from King’s Cross Station, the bustling travel hub of London, you might not expect to find serenity. However, this Georgian maisonette defies all expectations, offering a luxurious and calm spot with elegant and original decor. From rich, hardwood flooring and cabinets, to chic hanging lamps and art adorning the walls, a rustic versus modern contrast is present throughout. While we love the interior details, an outdoor area in the city centre is a rare feature that’s hard to ignore. With not one but two separate spaces for entertaining, enjoy an Earl Grey in the morning, and move on to a glass of fine English sparkling wine by dusk. As if exploring the gorgeous home and grounds wasn’t enough, your host has some extra surprises. Indoors, find your very own 4K projector and sound system for a luxury movie night. Outside, find a barbecue and even an outdoor heater for winter nights. If you muster up the courage to leave your peaceful palace, head seven minutes over the canal to Granary Square and Coal Drops Yard. For foodies and shoppers alike, this recently redeveloped area has beautifully renovated buildings housing cocktail bars, artisan markets, and high-end restaurants.

A Piece of Heaven

This beautiful cottage is a charming base for a family. It’s in Hampstead Garden Suburb, which has strict rules that ensure each home maintains its traditional facade – the result is a village feel with a North London postcode. The house is close to Hampstead Heath and is within easy reach of the tube – there’s even a mini bus that passes by to take you to the station. Historic features blend with modern comfort in this home, which also boasts a delightful south-facing garden with a terrace. 

A North London Retreat

This sleek, sophisticated apartment is situated in Primrose Hill, one of London's most picturesque yet practical neighbourhoods. The space itself makes efficient use of its two floors – downstairs you'll find a living space, kitchen, dining area, and nifty fold-away work station, while upstairs provides a large, loft-like bedroom with a king-size bed, private balcony, and en-suite bathroom. As a location, the joy of Primrose Hill is its versatility – you'll be seconds from the eponymous park, which offers a unique view of the London skyline and adjoins the larger Regent's Park, while to the east you'll find the classic alternative energy of Camden and its famous market.

Primrose Hill Mews

Air Conditioning

Culture vultures rejoice – this home is a twenty-minute walk from the world-renowned British Museum. You’ve also got leafy Regent’s Park a ten-minute stroll away, and eateries aplenty on the doorstep. And for exploring the rest of the capital, just hop on the nearby Tube. The contemporary style here won’t be everyone’s cup of tea, but with a private balcony – perfect for a morning coffee or evening aperitif – and floor-to-ceiling windows, it has plenty to offer. We think this London pad is a great choice for a couple wanting a fuss-free city break. 

An Urban Marvel

With its vintage prints, thrift-shop ornaments and chic, modern furniture, this home in picturesque Primrose Hill is as quirky as it is charming. We love these personal touches combined with wood floors, angled ceilings and large windows that give this home so much character. The bright living room is the perfect place to relax and unwind – especially on cooler evenings when you can light the fireplace and snuggle up on the plump sofa with a glass of wine. Relaxation knows no bounds here with the home’s concierge service organising at-home spa treatments, personal trainers, private shoppers and tickets to myriad events in London. You also couldn’t be better located, with Camden Town just a ten-minute walk away and Regent’s Park under thirty minutes away on foot. Don’t miss climbing to the top of Primrose Hill at sunset, too, for spectacular views over the city. As night falls, find a local gastropub for a delicious dinner, or stay home and enjoy a meal around the dining table as you people-watch from the windows. When it’s time for bed, you’ll find two beautiful bedrooms to snuggle up in – we’re particularly fond of the second bedroom beneath the eaves where a skylight lets you fall asleep under the glow of the moon. 


Bramblecrest

Ideally located just a fifteen-minute walk from King's Cross St. Pancras, this colourful, comfortable apartment puts you in a prime spot to discover London, as well as a jumping-off point for day trips aplenty thanks to its unparalleled transport links. 
 
Inside, vibrant pops of yellow, green and blue set an instantly cheerful tone in the bright living area, bathed in light thanks to the large windows here. Snuggle up on the sofa with a glass of wine after a day of touring the city or gather around the window-side table for a homemade feast when you’re not out sampling the area’s vibrant food scene. 
 
The two pared-back bedrooms, meanwhile, offer equally large windows, as well as comfy beds that promise a restful night’s sleep. 
 
When you’re ready to venture out, explore the many shops and restaurants in Coal Drops Yard (a fifteen-minute walk) or visit the impressively large British Library (a twenty-four-minute walk). You’re also a fifteen-minute bus ride from funky Camden Town and its famous alternative market, while your proximity to  King's Cross St. Pancras, as well as to St Pancras International – a twenty-minute walk – means easy access to other beauty spots around the country, as well as trips to Paris on the Eurostar. 


Cosmic Yellow

This contemporary pad near Belsize Park is an ideal base for family or friends on a London stay. We love the open-plan layout, and the single room doubling as an office is handy for those in the city for business. Locally, you’ll find a plethora of shops and eateries, and Hampstead Heath is within walking distance. Keen to explore further afield? Belsize Park Underground Station and Gospel Oak Overground Station are both a ten-minute walk away, providing easy access to central London.

Belsize Breeze

A stay in King's Cross could not be more convenient. It's no secret that the famous train station is very well connected, but the area is also home to a wealth of buzzing restaurants, bars, and shops. This apartment puts all of that at your fingertips. It's an excellent size for two people, with a bright living space, sleek kitchen and comfortable bedroom. Planning to work from home? The dining table doubles up as a desk. There's also a small balcony – it's a tad overlooked, but outside space in London isn't anything to scoff at, so we'll take it.

Cloudlands

Sleek, shiny and kitted out with all the bells and whistles, this modern apartment is just the ticket for a stay in the Big Smoke. Built-in speakers, a luxe rainfall shower, large windows in the open-plan living space – this pad has it all. Sprawl out on the L-shaped sofa as you rest your feet, then knock together something delicious in the glossy grey kitchen. The private balcony is our favourite spot – on summer days, retreat out there with a morning coffee or an evening glass of wine and soak up the sun. Although Camden is more cool than chic, we think it's an excellent base for exploring. There's something for everyone – an array of eateries with cuisines from all around the world, the famous market selling vintage goods (a ten-minute walk), beloved music venues and pubs if you fancy a night out and paths along the canal perfect for leisurely afternoon strolls. Plus, with Camden Road Overground right down the street and Camden Town Station a seven-minute walk away, getting around the rest of London is a breeze.

Seize The Day

Behind a beautifully renovated townhouse facade lies an interior that is bright and beautiful in equal measures. The living room has the feel of a contemporary art gallery, with high ceilings, parquet flooring and striking pieces on the wall. Although saying that, we haven't been to a gallery with such cute pastel-pink, tufted furnishings. 

The kitchen is just as striking, thanks to the large windows, the flurry of house plants and handsome marble surfaces. So striking in fact, that we crowned it 'kitchen of the year' on Instagram. As well as letting in copious amounts of natural light, the French door also leads out to a charming garden space with some seating for warm evenings. 

Upstairs, the bedrooms are both large and equipped with regal beds, while there's even a balcony space looking out over the rooftops of East London and the distant skyscrapers in The City. However, you don't even have to go far to find things to do in the neighbourhood. Just around the corner, there's the Castle Cinema — an Art Deco building reopened after a local crowdfunding campaign — and Chatsworth Market, which runs every Sunday with a great range of independent stalls.

The Knowledge

Breakfast Included

This flat is undoubtedly cool. Firstly, it's minutes from the vibrant markets, delicious curry houses and quirky bars of Brick Lane. But it offers much more than a prime location. 

We loved the open-plan living space, brought to life by the bold artwork on the walls and sewn together by the breakfast bar in the centre of the room. Perfect for sharing toast and jams in the morning, it expertly blends the living room and the kitchen. If you wanted to invite friends over for dinner, the room has a light, airy vibe that's ideal for a hosting space. 

Of course, when you're in such proximity to London's world-class restaurants, you probably want to sample them. Myriad fine eateries are right on your doorstep, or you can hop on the underground at Liverpool Street to reach Soho in a matter of minutes.

Head in the other direction and you'll find the Olympic Stadium and the beautiful park that surrounds it. Given the array of accessible public transport, you can reach the cool districts of Peckham, Hackney and Dalston in less than half an hour.

Cooling Down

You'll find this apartment nestled between Angel and Shoreditch, two of London's most vibrant neighbourhoods. From street food to nightlife, there's something in the area for everyone, including walking paths along the canal if you'd rather take things slow. Floor-to-ceiling windows flood the living space with light. They lead to a small balcony with views of Shoreditch Park across the street. The design is modern and contemporary. It's an ideal choice if you want a centrally located, comfortable stay.

Subtle Sunshine

Offering peace and comfort just ten minutes from Camden, this homely maisonette is the right choice if you want a memorable London experience. Between the cosy living room, verdant garden and the spacious top-floor terrace with views of neighbouring streets, you'll be spoiled for places to relax in between sightseeing.

The home has been beautifully decorated with a laid-back ambience, stashed full of books and unique artworks. If you're staying in the sunny months, it's likely you'll spend plenty of time on the private balcony. This scenic spot joins directly onto the master bedroom, so you can wake up to a spectacular city vista.

A fifteen-minute walk away, Primrose Hill boasts similarly panoramic views of the city – this is the perfect spot for a sunset walk. Camden Lock Market and Regent's Park are also within easy reach, and the closest tube station will take you into central London in only twenty minutes.

Malden Maison

Say hello to ultra-modern, eco-living at this London townhouse nestled along a smart, tree-lined street in the buzzy neighbourhood of Seven Sisters.
 
Meticulously designed by the owners using natural materials, this eco-home boasts some serious green credentials. The latest tech in air filtering keeps things as fresh as a daisy inside. And thanks to the sustainable energy sources, everything ticks along beautifully, including the underfloor heating for winter months.

Friends or family sharing this home will love how private the bedrooms feel, spread out over two floors. But it’s back downstairs in the light-filled living area where we think you’ll be spending most of your time. Furnished with the host’s collection of mid-twentieth-century retro furniture and united by natural solid oak timber floors –⁠ this home packs some serious style. 

When the sun shines, open up the French doors leading to a private garden to let the fresh air in as you come together for a lazy breakfast before setting out to explore. And you’re in the right location to do so. Mosey over to Seven Sisters Underground Station (ten minutes on foot), and you can be in central London in no time. Or, for something a little slower-paced, do like the locals and take to the nearby green parks and canals banks for a stroll.

The Green One

Surrounded by characterful pubs and fine eateries, this home is nestled between the lively neighbours of Islington and Dalston. The open-plan living area has plenty of space and natural light, especially for a flat – thanks, in part, to skylights and bi-fold doors allowing sunlight to bounce off the white walls. When the weather is nice, the terraces and garden beckon, offering perfect spots for a glass of wine after exploring the city. And for the drizzly days that London is a little more known for, we can't imagine anything better than turning on the underfloor heating and curling up on the sofa with a cup of tea.

The Olde Prose

Nestled between King’s Cross and Camden, this home is perfectly placed for an exciting city getaway. You can stroll to the shops and restaurants in nearby Granary Square and Coal Drops Yard. There are markets to explore and you’ll find great public transport links – making it easy to get across London. Wherever the day takes you, this apartment has everything you could need to relax, disconnect or catch up on work. The main bedroom has views across the canal and there are two en-suite bathrooms – adding a wonderful sense of privacy. 

The Canal Muse

Originally built in the 1730s, this sumptuous apartment is a shining example of Georgian architecture. The building is one of the oldest in Mayfair – in 1821, famed Buckingham Palace architect Thomas Cubbit extended it – and you can see the character, history and period details in every room. It feels like a home you want to linger in, with new surprises waiting at every turn. We love the antique furniture – a clawfoot desk here, a fauteuil armchair there – but the smart kitchen, stylish bathroom and mod-cons like a rainfall shower, espresso machine and Netflix bring things in the 21st-century. We think it's the best of both worlds, and the location is even better.

Ritzy and charming, Mayfair is home to leafy squares, cobbled lanes lined with cafes and some of the oldest shops in London. Fashionistas will enjoy shopping along New Bond Street and Saville Row (a five-minute walk away), art fiends can browse the nearby galleries and auction houses (Phillips Auction House & Gallery is right next door) and foodies will love the bevvy of gourmet eateries nearby. With Bond Street Station only six minutes away on foot, travelling around the rest of the city is easy – perfect if you fancy a bit of sightseeing.

Just a ten-minute walk from King's Cross St. Pancras, this wonderfully curated home is within easy reach of London’s top cultural sights. The house is set on a gated housing estate, in the heart of a local community with a quiet, traffic-free square out front. Forget stuffy hotels – when you come here it’ll feel like home away from home. Laid out over three floors, it’s full of chic personal touches, like the extensive vinyl record collection, and the pops of plant life in each room. There’s a wide range of reading material, board games, and recipe books so you can hone your culinary repertoire in the well equipped kitchen. 

There’s construction work taking place behind the home, so you may hear noise between 8am and 6pm in the week and on some Saturday mornings. But since you are in a prime position to explore all of London’s delights, you’ll be raring to go, and you’ll come home to a quiet and peaceful house. Make a beeline for the British Museum, an eighteen-minute walk away, to see their vast, extraordinary collection spanning over 2 million years of human life. You’re also a twenty-minute stroll from the trendy Coal Drops Yard with its myriad shops and restaurants, and an eight-minute walk from the Charles Dickens Museum. There are multiple tube and train lines from King's Cross St. Pancras, so you can easily hop around London. 

After a day of exploring, put on a vinyl record and kick back on the sofa, or enjoy a glass of wine in the serenity of your back garden. On balmy evenings, fire up the barbecue and dine alfresco together before settling down for a movie.

Moored up along the Regent’s Canal, this houseboat is in the heart of London. Regent’s Park is right next door and Primrose Hill is on the other bank. Plus, the buzzing heart of Camden Lock is a short walk away. The space inside has been carefully considered with two double bedrooms (one with a fold-out sofa bed), a full kitchen and cosy living room. There’s no chance of cabin fever with additional outdoor areas – lounge seating on the canalside and plenty of room to spread out on a towel on the rooftop. Of course, as a narrowboat, there are lots of amenities tucked away and fold-out features. It wouldn’t suit those that like oodles of space.
