If you're looking for a home in leafy Islington, this stylish apartment is perfect. Here you'll find a vibrant theatre scene and design boutiques. Or, take a three-minute stroll to Canonbury, with its village-like vibe and foodie scene – it was also a previous playground of literary giants George Orwell and Evelyn Waugh. When you want to explore further, it's just a three-minute saunter to the Highbury & Islington Underground Station, where you can get to Oxford Circus in under ten minutes via the Victoria line. If you crave some green space, head to Highbury Fields, Islington's largest park. You don't have to go anywhere to relax in the fresh air, though. This lovely home has a pretty patio, so pour a glass of wine and sit amidst the vines – this place has no less than two outdoor spaces, a fantastic addition for this part of London. Inside, hues of cream and grey are dotted with pops of vibrant citrus and neon pinks – it's a charming light-filled place. Choose a book from the quirky spiral bookcase and unwind in this North London oasis.

Lovingly renovated by its owners, this home in Highbury has benefitted beautifully from their utmost care and attention. It’s hard to believe that this imposing Victorian terrace was once little more than a wreck, but thanks to the wisdom and skill of its owners, it’s been returned to its former glory – with some modern-day additions, of course. The home’s open-plan living area is an absolute delight, complete with an extension at the back of the house that allows light to stream in, illuminating a family area right in front of the kitchen’s dark and moody modern cabinets. Through the French doors and you’ll find a landscaped garden complete with wooden decking and a paved terrace at the top of the garden that will be calling your name come cocktail hour. Back inside and pendant lights swing dramatically low over the large dining table, while you can find books and art just about everywhere. At the front of the house, there’s a more formal living room that we think would be great for family movie nights or cosy evenings with a glass of red wine. You’ll find four bedrooms upstairs, but the pièce de resistance has to be the freestanding metal bath in the en-suite master bathroom.

Please note all stays of 8 nights or more include complimentary weekly cleaning, linen changes and replenishment of toiletries.

Rooftop Terrace

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

Nestled between Finsbury Park, Highbury and Stoke Newington, this stylish apartment ticks all of our boxes for a comfortable stay in the Big Smoke. We loved the open-plan living space, with walls adorned with contemporary art, book-stuffed shelves to keep you busy on rainy days, and bi-fold doors that let the sunshine in when it’s fair out. Potter around the navy blue kitchen, putting together side dishes for a summer barbecue or preparing picnics to be enjoyed at Clissold Park, a thirteen-minute walk away. 

Spend afternoons whizzing around London – catch the tube from Arsenal to Holborn and visit the British Museum, Somerset House and Covent Garden. Head home in the evenings, and after a glass of wine on your private patio, sample the fantastic selection of restaurants along Blackstock Road – it’s only a five-minute saunter from your doorstep.

First Aid Kit

Bright, artsy and full of characterful design pieces, this townhouse in Hackney is an ideal base for those looking to explore one of London’s quirkier, hip neighbourhoods. 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. Factor in the beautiful, unique vanity and the wicker peacock chair and you’ll see this room is made for pure relaxation. 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

Spanning two floors of a converted warehouse building, this central Camden maisonette offers upside-down living at its best. Upstairs, there’s a sleek, open-plan living space, all flooded with natural light. While downstairs, there are two king-sized bedrooms with heaps of storage space. Sharing with friends? Then you’ll appreciate the two separate bathrooms for a bit more privacy. Location-wise, the expansive Regent’s Park and the panoramic views from Primrose Hill are just a short distance away for dog walks (four-legged friends are welcome here, too). And even closer, Camden’s market and High Street for all the London buzz you’re chasing. Need to be somewhere fast? Camden Underground Station is right around the corner.

Camden Edge

Cot / Crib

Swimming Pool

This stylish apartment has a prestigious location in Shoreditch, in a landmark building designed by the renowned architects Foster + Partners. We love the ensuite bathroom, beautifully finished with marble. The open-plan living space is flooded with lots of natural light with large windows overlooking London. However, the absolute highlights here for us are the indoor lap pool and spa – perfect for relaxing after a busy day. There's also a residents' lounge, a state-of-the-art gym, and a cinema, so there's plenty to keep you occupied.

If all this wasn't enough, this home has a fabulous address. It's a twelve-minute walk to East London Tech City, otherwise known as Silicon Roundabout, while Spitalfields Market is a four-minute saunter. With its public gardens, bars, and restaurants, Hoxton Square is a seven-minute wander, or art lovers can head to the Barbican Arts Centre, seventeen minutes away on foot. 




City Vistas

Umbrellas

Enjoy a relaxing weekend escape exploring the trendy area of East London, follow the narrow boats and the smell of hand roasted coffee through street art and beards on bicycles. Have your La La moment on the piano and enjoy the balcony. 

The East Branch

Situated on a unique crescent-shaped street of Victorian homes – this apartment in Kings Cross is a great find. There’s an array of restaurants, bars and boutiques at nearby Granary Square and Coal Drops Yard, or have a stroll along the canal close by. The apartment itself has been featured in a variety of films and advertisements and takes its inspiration from a collection of artists and intellectuals known as the Bloomsbury Group. The highlight for us though is the pretty courtyard garden – the perfect spot for reading a book.

Please note all stays of 8 nights or more include complimentary weekly cleaning, linen changes and replenishment of toiletries.

Crescent of Roses

Air Conditioning

Sitting on the second floor of a walk-up period building in Bloomsbury, this bright apartment not only provides views over charming Queen Square Gardens but also puts you in a central spot from which to explore the city. The British Museum, the Charles Dickens Museum and the British Library are all within walking distance, while the nearby transport links will whisk you to the buss of Soho and beyond in no time. Inside the home, modern decor and plenty of natural light are nice touches. And the extendable window-side table can easily double as a remote workspace if you’re visiting the city for business. 


Blue Skies Above

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.

This chic apartment can be found in lively Clerkenwell. There are bars and restaurants nearby, as well as excellent transport links to the rest of London, and you’ll only be a twelve-minute walk from the Barbican Centre. Sadler’s Wells Theatre is also a short walk away, making this a great choice for those visiting London for a show. The apartment is contemporary but cosy, with attractive high-end finishes and a petite balcony. At full occupancy, four guests will sleep on two sofa beds in the living space, which might feel a little crowded for longer stays. 

The Modern Minster

Enjoy a stay in Shoreditch, one of London's hippest neighbourhoods. With bars, restaurants, and an Overground station just a short stroll away, you'll have everything you need within easy reach. Brick Lane is also within walking distance – head there for vintage finds and fantastic street food. Taking inspiration from its surroundings, this lofty apartment is as comfortable as it is cool. It's spread across two floors, so there's plenty of room to unwind. Even better, you'll have two balconies to choose from – both ideal for cocktails before a night on the town.

After the Disco

Home Cinema Setup

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

Single-Level Home

You’ll find this streamlined apartment in the heart of Clerkenwell, just over a fifteen-minute walk from the British Museum and five minutes from the bustling Leather Lane Market. Whether you’re staying for a while or just a weekend, the place has everything you need to feel right at home, from a well-appointed kitchen to a handy welcome pack with essentials to get you started. Just so you know, there’s not enough seating for a group of six at the dining table, but with endless restaurants on the doorstep, we think you’ll be eating out most of the time anyway. 

The Brandy Oak

This modern apartment, spread over two floors, is perfect for a family or group of friends looking for a comfortable London base. It’s as central as you can get, on iconic Drury Lane – you’ll be just moments from Theatre District and Covent Garden. The apartment boasts a delightful sundeck off the open-plan living and dining space, making it a great place to return to after busy days and hectic crowds. If you need to relax further, enjoy a soak in the unique Japanese bathtub, designed to comfortably fit even the tallest of guests. 

London Lights

With its central location and cool, contemporary style, this apartment is an excellent base in London. It’s just a short walk from the British Library, King’s Cross, and a whole host of eateries, making it a convenient home-from-home. The open-plan living and dining space has an integrated kitchen and opens to a wraparound balcony with outdoor furniture – you’ll have plenty of space to spend time together. The bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms, so getting ready in the morning is a breeze. 

A Life in London

Chic and stylish, this apartment is located on the banks of Regent’s Canal. It’s in the vibrant neighbourhood of Angel, with its excellent bars and restaurants. You can take the tube or Overground from nearby, making it easy to explore the rest of London. The apartment is a sophisticated base for a London stay, decorated in a classy palette of dark neutrals. We particularly like the dining area, which features a retro dining table and a large vintage mirror. The second bedroom is equipped with a single bed with a trundle underneath it that opens into a double bed. 

Dark Shades

Doorman

Hot off the press, this apartment is a short stroll from Fleet Street. The Strand, the River Thames, the Royal Courts of Justice and the London School of Economics, along with the Tate Modern and the British Museum, are within walking distance too. Such an excellent location will mean this home will be subject to some city noise, but that's to be expected. Once a place for textile dying in the 15th century, this newly refurbished apartment, with a private lift, sits within an exclusive Victorian development. There's plenty of room for entertaining in the spacious open-plan living space, and if you need to work from home, the large dining table doubles up as a laptop workspace.

Victorian Gem

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

Playstation

If you’re in search of a stylish stay in a central location, this apartment delivers a sweet solution. Inside, you’ll be welcomed by warm interiors and a cosy ambience. There’s also a PS5 with two controllers and Apple speakers for laidback evenings at home, while the kitchen comes with a Nespresso machine and all the essentials you could need to make it your own. And when it comes to explorations further afield, it’s just a short walk to local shops, pubs and restaurants as well as Regent’s Canal.

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. If you want to explore, the host has left their Dutch bike and guests are free to borrow it. Alternatively, you can rent her car, which is parked in the on-site car park. Clissold Park is only two minutes' walk up the road and is home to a small deer farm. Likewise, Church Street takes only six minutes to reach on foot and offers cosy restaurants, traditional boozers and vintage shops.



The Milner

This modern apartment is a great base in London. It’s located in Marylebone Village, just a five-minute walk from Marylebone High Street and four minutes from pretty Regent’s Park. There are plenty of restaurants, cafes, and pubs nearby, and you’ll have four tube stations in the vicinity. The apartment is luxurious and chic, with high-end furnishings and a bright open-concept layout. Two guests can be accommodated on sofa beds in the living space. 


The Marylebone Mews

This modern hideaway is in buzzing Fitzrovia – a neighbourhood packed with swanky cocktail bars, Michelin-starred restaurants and chi-chi cafes. Plus, the British Museum is just a short stroll away. The apartment is fairly swanky itself, with a stylish open living, kitchen and dining room with space for the whole group to hang out together. Bedrooms are comfortable – ideal after a day sightseeing in the city or attending meetings. Right in the heart of London, it’s the perfect spot for business or leisure. 

Fitzrovia's Heartbeat

Live out your literary dreams in this bright and airy apartment, twice lived in by famed novelist, Charles Dickens. Centrally located in the vibrant Fitzrovia, this apartment is a sleek city base with a storied history. 

This modern apartment feels both contemporary and comfortable. The pared-back and minimal design is contrasted with elements of character, like the exposed brick walls, an array of plants and a library of books that are a joy to indulge in after a day of exploring the streets of Soho, just a ten-minute walk away. Slide open the sash windows and enjoy your morning coffee at the large wooden table, or if you’re in need of a quick fix before heading out, the sleek stone-surfaced kitchen is perfect for whipping up a quick bite. It must be said, however, with London’s roster of restaurants you’ll have to fight yourself to stay in, even for breakfast.

Amble your way around Soho, popping into The Photographer’s Gallery and Sadie Coles before grabbing lunch at Koya for chewy udon noodles and beer-braised pork belly. Spend the rest of the afternoon in and out of shops in Covent Garden, we like Tenderbooks for their archive collections and Dover Street Market for sartorial browsing. Wind down in the evening at Duck Soup for a glass of natural wine and your pick of the seasonal menu. As night falls, wander through the buzzy streets back to your novelist’s hideout.   

A Literary Abode

Set in a period building overlooking Lincoln's Inn Fields square, this stylish home not only affords you plenty of space but also puts you in a prime position for exploring some of the capital’s most celebrated sights. Plus, Holborn Tube station is a two-minute walk. Ascend up the private lift to this elegant home. Inside, the sleek kitchen and breakfast bar will suit keen chefs of the group when you’re not out sampling the local restaurant scene. And, with a carefully curated living area to boot and a desk on hand should you be travelling on business, this apartment is a great choice for those after tranquillity and comfort in the heart of the city. 

Refined Elegance

This three-bedroom flat is perfect for a family or group of friends. The spacious living room has a large sofa and a flat-screen TV, while the kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need to cook a home-cooked meal. The bedrooms are all well-appointed and have plenty of storage space. The flat is located in the heart of Farringdon, just a short walk from the tube station and all the shops and restaurants you could need.

All Things Bright & Beautiful

This elegant apartment boasts a splendid setting in central London, just a short walk from King’s Cross. It’s ideal for a family, a group of friends, or business travellers – you’ll have everything you need for a comfortable stay. This apartment is stylish and practical, with an integrated kitchen in the open-plan living and dining space. There’s also a wraparound balcony where you can admire London skyline views in warm weather. This attractive London home is perfect for those seeking a restful London base. 

Subtle & Soft

Espresso Machine

A little green hiding place in East London, this vintage-lovers paradise manages to mix thrift shop finds with high-end necessities. It’s a sweet spot that feels homely but certainly doesn’t scrimp on quality or comfort. You’ll be sharing the space with an impressive collection of houseplants, but that’s part of its charm. We love the well-equipped kitchen in miniature and the deep, dark blue of the Victorian bathroom, complete with a claw foot bath for taking a long soak. Pop on the Bluetooth Marshall amp or record player, and enjoy some time away from the busy streets of the capital. Outside, there’s a small but no-less-welcome terrace, which brings a tiny bit of nature into the breathable living space. Located in a lively and interesting part of the city, with the weekly Chatsworth Road Market on your doorstep, there’s plenty to explore, including a host of indy shops and eateries. And it’s only a ten-minute walk to Homerton overground station or twenty minutes to Hackney Central if you fancy seeing what else London has to offer.

Looking for a base for a gig or a match at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium? Look no further. This stylish, modern apartment is within walking distance of the stadium, on bustling White Hart Lane. It’s close to shops, restaurants, and cafes, making it a convenient North London home-from-home. The open-plan kitchen, dining, and living space is the heart of the home, where you’ll likely spend most of your time. Both bedrooms are comfortable and peaceful, ideal for relaxing after busy days in London. 

London Lane

Decidedly modern, this split-level flat caught our eye with its luxurious extras, industrial-chic design and super central location. Our favourite room is the glossy kitchen, which is decked out with all the amenities you'll need – double Siemens ovens, a humidity-controlled fridge, top-of-the-range cookware and even a Nordic Quooker boiling tap, just to name a few. We think keen chefs and amateur cooks alike will love rustling up a tasty breakfast or hearty dinner under the skylight. 

Both bedrooms are as comfortable as they are stylish – one even has access to a small, narrow patio – and the bathrooms are the definition of grand, with their lavish rainfall showers and polished marble walls. And we adore the exposed grey brick scattered around, most notably in the living room – it's the perfect area to relax after a busy day taking advantage the pubs, bookstores and museums that dot this corner of London. 

Speaking of location, Bloomsbury is an excellent base for a stay in the capital. The British Museum is only thirteen minutes on foot, while iconic spots like Covent Garden, St Paul's Cathedral and Trafalgar Square are also within walking distance – about half an hour, give or take. Whether you want to shop on Oxford Street, sample the gastronomic delights in Soho or just roam the city in search of adventure, you'll be well-placed for exploring – especially with Chancery Lane station less than ten minutes away.
