This towering Georgian townhouse filled with antiques and art is the perfect abode for a family or group of friends looking to stay in central London. Stepping inside, you can tell it’s owned by a museum director and interior designer as an eclectic medley of French and Scandinavian furniture fills high-ceilinged rooms. Artworks worthy of one of the nearby galleries adorn the walls, along with the curated selection of gilded books. Distressed, rustic shutters juxtapose with an artfully corniced ceiling in the living room, and the dining room has a farmhouse-chic feel with an old white-wash hearth at one end. Entering the kitchen, you could be stepping into an Italian nonna’s kitchen with pots and pans hanging from every hook.

The real bonus is the enclosed garden, bursting with bloom and hidden from view by greenery. Wrought-iron benches, tables and chairs dot this charming outdoor space. Even the WC is a sight to behold, with a Victoriana vintage toilet looking like it belongs to a museum.

You’re in a central location too, a stone’s throw from the Battersea Power Station and the US Embassy, street food markets and eclectic eateries of Brixton, and a twenty-minute walk from Battersea Park. Plus, the Northern and Victoria lines are on your doorstep for quick and easy access into the heart of London.

Welcome Hamper

This classy apartment is close to the US Embassy and Battersea. While street parking is available, you'll be just a five-minute walk from the nearest bus and tube stations. The neighbouring houses are close-knit, so there is the potential for noise, especially if you're in the garden. Said garden boasts plenty of seating for alfresco meals and drinks though, making it the highlight of the home. Your host can provide a cot and high chair if you're travelling with little ones, and some basic supplies can be refreshed by the guest manager, ensuring your stay will be a breeze.

The Armadillo

Built in 1875, this Victorian property lies only minutes away from vibrant Brixton. A short walk will get you to the Stockwell Underground Station, where all of London is at your disposal. The house still has some original features, like the statement fireplace, but the more contemporary kitchen and dining space is what draws the eye here. It spills out into a manicured garden with an alfresco dining space, raised deck, and lawn that the kids will enjoy running around on. Though parts of this home feel a little dated – particularly the traditional living area and bathroom – it comfortably hosts a family of eight.

The Green & The Gold

Exercise Equipment

Wellness & Fitness

Based in a Victorian townhouse, this bright and characterful apartment really packs a punch due to its stylish interiors and enviable South London location. Less than a five-minute walk from Stockwell tube station, granting you easy access into the heart of the city (fifteen minutes from Oxford Circus), and yet in a quiet residential area near lively Clapham, this home is perfect for couples after a romantic break. Inside, there's a real warmth to the flat that will have you feeling cosy and comfy from the get-go. It's a well-presented home too, with worldly adornments sitting on top of ornamental fireplaces and the white-painted wood flooring lined by a chic animal print rug – it's clear the host has an eye for detail. Start your day with coffee on the balcony and lovely green views – a real rarity in the city – before heading off for a peaceful stroll in Battersea Park (half an hour from your door). In the other direction, you'll find Clapham and Brixton – two emerging hotspots full of shops, restaurants and a young, hip vibe. So, if you don't feel like facing the Central crowds one afternoon, there's plenty to keep you busy nearby.

Open the bifold doors from the gorgeous, light kitchen into the sunny garden – it's the perfect spot to enjoy some alfresco dining. Inside, the large living room's dark, dramatic hues show off the period fireplace to a tee – watch the world go by from the bay window seat or read a book here – there are plenty to choose from. 

We adore the original corniced ceiling, herringbone wood floors and plush velvet chairs. If you want to keep up your fitness regime, there's a private gym too.

Or go for a jog around Clapham Common, around 100 metres away – it's one of London's largest, and oldest public open spaces. Then go for lunch at one of the many eateries nearby. Culture lovers, on the other hand, can head to the Battersea Arts Centre, just over fifteen minutes on foot.

Early / Late Check-Out Available

If you're looking for a central base, within easy reach of many of London's top sights and attractions, this ideally located two-bedroom flat in Clapham is the perfect pick. Not only will you have a modern and comfortable place to return to, but you're a fourteen-minute walk from the leafy common, fantastic for morning wanders in the park, while Clapham Junction tube station is only eleven minutes away on foot, connecting you to the likes of Wandsworth and Battersea in less than twenty minutes. 

Inside, the cosy living room includes a comfy sofa, as well as lots of homey decorative touches that will have you feeling at ease from the moment you arrive. Both bedrooms are wonderfully bright and minimal so you'll have no trouble getting a restful night's sleep in the city either. But the biggest draw is, of course, your private outside space, complete with garden furniture so you can sit back with your morning coffee and plan for your day ahead in the English capital.

Not far from Burgess Park, you'll find easy transport links nearby to take you to the city centre.

Whether you need to work, play or relax, this extraordinary townhouse in Clapham has you covered. You only have to look at the 130-foot-long garden to see what we mean. As well as a lawn plenty big enough for games, there's also plenty of alfresco seating on the terrace, plus a self-contained office at the far end of the space with enough desks and screens for a whole start-up team if needs be.

And that's before we've even got around to the main home. Recently refurbished, the design is bright, bold and worthy of a centrefold in a glossy magazine. The sleek monochrome kitchen is truly envy-inducing, as is the chic dining table next to the large glass door leading to the back garden. At the front of the house, the living room is a little more homely thanks to the bay window, walls full of art and shelves packed with curios. To top it all off, the top two floors are home to characterful bedrooms and bathrooms.

It must be said that the location is fantastic, too. Larkhall Park sits five minutes away on foot, while the sprawling Clapham Common is a fifteen-minute walk. Just next to this is Clapham High Street, where you'll find a great range of restaurants and pubs, plus a cinema.

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. 

Prince Luxe

Make yourself at home at this innovative riverfront home, designed to maximise light and views from every room. The interior design takes its inspiration from the bold colours on display at the nearby New Covent Garden Flower Market. A sleek kitchen provides a perfect blend of form and function, with a sophisticated colour palette and top of the line appliances that ensure you can plate up dishes that look as good as the surroundings. Elsewhere, this open-plan space offers you a soothing seating area, with direct access to a spacious balcony that provides you with a sought-after outdoor space to call your own. Step through to the bedrooms and you'll discover a sanctuary of calm that's ideal for unwinding at the end of a busy day, with luxurious bathrooms decked out with gleaming marble, crafted tiles and designer fixtures. The location places you right in the centre of everything, yet surrounded by nature, including London's new mile-long Linear Park – a flash of green space inspired by the High Line in Manhattan. Just a short walk away, you'll find Battersea Power Station – the latest addition to London's burgeoning list of redeveloped spaces packed with food, culture and life.

Single-Level Home

Set on prestigious Eccleston Square in a building designed by Thomas Cubitt in 1855, this beautifully decorated apartment is all set to welcome you into a peaceful, luxurious stay. 

Period details like the parquet floors and wonderfully large windows combine with elegant Chinoiserie-inspired decor that feel immediately elegant. We love the soft pastel colours in the living room that add to the air of period lavishness and the French doors here that lead out onto a private balcony overlooking the private residents’ garden (to which you have access). Take a seat at the balcony’s table and chairs while enjoying your morning coffee or sip a sundowner here before exploring the many restaurants and pubs along Pimlico Road and Elizabeth Street (both a ten-minute walk away).

Evenings call for long soaks in the luxurious marble-framed bathtub, followed by a restful night’s sleep in the stunning bedroom with its designer wallpaper and luxuriously dressed bed. 

When it comes to sightseeing nearby, you couldn’t be better placed to enjoy some of the city’s finest culture, entertainment and shopping. Buckingham Palace and Chelsea’s King’s Road are both a fifteen-minute walk away, Harrods department store is a twenty-minute stroll, Westminster Abbey and Big Ben are under twenty-five minutes away on foot and Victoria’s theatres are walkable in five. 


Eccleston Elegance

Baby Bath

Small yet stylish, this apartment blends Victorian charm with contemporary design. You'll find it in Pimlico, a short walk from the Thames, Tate Britain and multiple Tube stations. Buckingham Palace and Sloane Square are a bit further away but still within easy reach. Though the layout isn't the biggest, the bright living area is cosy and the kitchen is well-appointed to rustle up something to nibble on. We think the second bedroom is better for one adult or two small children – otherwise, it's a comfortable base to call home.

Take your pick from London's most iconic hotspots, all within walking distance of this immaculate period townhouse perched along a leafy, smart street in Vauxhall. Just nip over the river, and you'll be ambling about the Tate Britain, Westminster Abbey, Buckingham Palace and Big Ben in no time. Or escape the bustle and tourists with a stroll around Vauxhall Park or head over to the iconic Oval grounds to check out its regular fixtures.

Back home, free-flowing spaces span across the ground floor of this period home beautifully. While glorious historic features remain, the rest of the home is elegantly reimagined for modern living. A sleek kitchen with a marble-clad island is perfect for rustling up lazy brunches, while that sun-filled garden room with views of the leafy patio outside is prime for morning coffees with the papers.

A no-brainer for extended family or friends sharing, upstairs and spread over two floors, each king-sized bedroom is as uplifting and pristine as the next. A secondary sitting room on the first floor is made for cosy film nights. And you're all sorted for work with a dedicated quiet office room tucked away in the eaves. Just don't work too hard –⁠ London's calling. 

Vauxhall Set

From art to zen, this large Clapham home has something for everyone. It’s big enough for families, with a back garden, single bedroom and farmhouse dining table – not to mention that beckoning swing. Yet the cool design chairs and funky four-poster bed feel distinctly adult, as does a well-equipped kitchen ready to thrill foodies. There’s office space for anyone needing to work, and a bathtub for post-sightseeing soaks. Clapham Common is nearby, as is its Underground station and surrounding high street.

This home offers a calm and creative sanctuary just ten-minutes from Battersea Park. You’ll find the nearest amenities within easy reach and it’s possible to walk to Battersea Power Station – providing you with plenty of entertainment options. It’s also well connected with great public transport links ensuring quick connections with central London. And when it comes to rest and relaxation, this home delivers everything you could need to settle in and make it your own. There’s a home office for remote workers, exercise equipment for wellness lovers and plenty of socialising space for families. 

A Battersea Beauty

This quaint two-bedroom terraced townhouse on a quiet street off the bustling Fulham Road has a pared-down exterior in contrast to the cosier atmosphere inside. A spacious living area welcomes you on the ground floor, and an open-plan kitchen completes the space. Sleeping quarters are tucked away upstairs, and the master bedroom even boasts a terrace, although we can't guarantee the weather! The house is a few minutes' walk from South Kensington Tube station, allowing you to explore the whole of London with ease. Closer to home, PJ's Chelsea Brasserie serves up Modern American classics only 100 yards away. Phil Howard's Michelin-starred Elystan Street is just a five-minute walk, while The Crown and The Hunter's Moon are there for those after a good old British pub. A ten-to-fifteen-minute walk opens up the fashionable boutiques and fine dining options of Kings Road, swanky Sloane Square, and the shopping mecca of Harrods.

Chelsea Terrace

You’ll find this stunning apartment in a quiet residential area on the border of Chelsea and Belgravia. It’s close to Sloane Square, Kings Road, and the wonderful museums of South Kensington. The apartment is chic and stylish, decorated with bold splashes of colour that make it a warm and welcoming space to call home. It’s equipped with everything you might need for a break in London, including laundry facilities for longer stays. The bunk bed room is perfect for children, though it’s on the smaller side. 

Chelsea & Belgravia

This home in Clapham Common is a classic design lover’s haven, with captivating prints and traditional features. The vintage-style living room is glamorous yet inviting, while the bonus snug area is perfect for cosy nights in. The airy kitchen boasts a breakfast bar, and an electric Aga, while the dining room, with its canopied ceiling and white drapes, is perfect for ambient evenings. During the warmer months, you can make the most of the garden with a barbecue, though the furniture could do with a lick of paint. With Clapham Common just moments away and speedy Tube links to Central London, you can easily explore the city or relax on the patio with a glass of pet nat.

The City Garden 

With views over the River Thames and across to the London Peace Pagoda in Battersea Park, it’s not hard to see why this Chelsea home caught our eye. With a colourful and quirky style, it’s an ideal base whether you’re in the city for business or leisure. The cosy kitchen is perfect for rustling up family meals – make sure you pop to the Saturday market in Duke of York Square for some fresh local produce. And of course, given the neighbourhood, you’re surrounded by sophisticated eateries, so dining out will always be on the agenda. 

Please note all stays of 8 nights or more include complimentary weekly cleaning, linen changes and replenishment of toiletries.

From the characterful wooden shutters to the host's collection of well-thumbed books, this cottage is the definition of cosy. The kitchen has all the essentials to whip up dinner – best enjoyed in the bay window – while the bedrooms are as comfortable as they are stylish. Topping it all off is the small garden. It has sundowners written all over it – the perfect end to a day spent sightseeing. As for location, it's ten minutes on foot from Clapham Junction and twenty from Battersea Park. Though it's not in the thick of central London, you'll still be incredibly well-connected here – trains can whisk you away to Victoria, Waterloo, or London Bridge in about ten minutes.

The Battersea Beat

With its unparalleled location in the heart of South Kensington, this elegant home is the perfect base for a couple or solo traveller looking to experience some of the city’s greatest cultural gems. A four-minute walk from the Natural History Museum and a seven-minute stroll from both the Science Museum and the V&A, you’ll have a world of science, nature and art at arm’s reach here. Housed in a neoclassical building dating back to the 1870s, luxury meets comfort inside the apartment with tall ceilings, chandeliers, sophisticated furnishings and a neutral palette creating an instantly dazzling impression. We love the French doors in the living room that open out onto a private balcony, perfect for starting your mornings off over coffee while taking in leafy views. The bedroom, too, has floor-to-ceiling windows and French doors, allowing plenty of natural light to pour in, while the master bathroom offers an inviting Jacuzzi bath to relax in after a day of sightseeing. When you’re not sitting pretty in your chic home, go out and explore your prestigious surroundings. Aside from the Museum Mile a stone’s throw away, you’ve got Little France on your front step with Bute Street (three minutes away on foot) offering plenty of French cafes, bakeries and book shops as well as the Institut Français (five minutes away) where French film screenings and cultural events take place year-round. Knightsbridge is also just a twenty-minute walk from your home, for a spot of retail therapy at the iconic Harrods department store and some of the city’s swankiest restaurants.

This gorgeous home is located just a five-minute walk away from glorious Tooting Bec Common – a vast expanse of greenery, home to a lovely Lido if you fancy a dip. Or, check out the raft of restaurants in Balham, a fifteen-minute stroll. If you want to channel your inner Nigella, there’s a library of cookery books here, if you prefer to stay in. Enjoy the fruits of your labour in the sumptuous dining room with its sparkling chandeliers. There’s even a live-in housekeeper to keep everything spick and span. Perfect for families – kids and adults alike are well catered for with two separate lounges. Challenge someone to a game of table tennis in the downstairs playroom or head out to the large, attractive garden with plenty of seating and dining options, ideal for outdoor entertaining. This home will soon be ringing with laughter and chatter – we love it here.

The Pink Floyd

This contemporary home is just moments from Clapham Common. Outside, you’ll be spoiled for choice when it comes to local cafes, restaurants and shops. There is no private parking but it’s just a short stroll to the nearest tube station – making it easy to explore iconic sights across London. Back at home, you’ll have a private roof terrace for evening drinks and there’s plenty of room to gather and socialise inside. Remote workers will appreciate the dedicated desk space and you’ll find all the essentials you could need to get you started.


Clapham Moon

Ideal for couples or solo travellers visiting for business or pleasure, this third floor duplex apartment is situated in the very heart of London. With Leicester Square, Piccadilly Circus and Soho's assorted delights just minutes away, you'll be able to explore some of the most vibrant and historic parts of the capital without even needing public transport. The apartment itself is an excellent find, too – there's a large and bright double bedroom, a kitchen equipped with good quality appliances, and a comfortable living area boasting designer furniture. With some of London's very best restaurants, museums and theatres on your doorstep, there are few better places to set down for your stay.

Piccadilly Place

Despite a privileged location right in the heart of Battersea, this serene 
home feels like it could be in the countryside. Secluded away down a picture-perfect mews, the façade resembles converted Victorian stables, while the interiors are adorned with vintage-style furniture that lends the home a chic farmhouse atmosphere. The colour palette is soothing and calm, which is in keeping with the setting and allows for complete tranquillity during your stay. Battersea is lovely, but it's not central London. However, the newly opened Battersea branch of the Northern line opens up the rest of the city to you, while there are plenty of convenient bus routes serving more off-the-beaten-track destinations. There are plenty of things to do nearby, including going for a riverside walk in beautiful Battersea Park, a couple of minutes away. Cross over the Thames, and you'll find bustling Chelsea within a ten-minute walk, with its upmarket shops, vibrant bars and fine dining restaurants. Alternatively, hop on the bus and head to Clapham for a lively village vibe, while lively Brixton is one of London's coolest cultural hubs – both are around half an hour away.

Parkside Mews

Ceiling Fans

Fifteen minutes on foot from Buckingham Palace and ten from Victoria Station, this charming townhouse is well-placed to explore London. It's an ideal base for friends or families with children above the age of 10, though four floors of living space means there'll be plenty of steps to climb. Our favourite feature is the private patio, where you can sip cocktails and tuck into an alfresco dinner as the sun goes down. Prefer to dine out, instead? You'll find an array of restaurants on your doorstep, ranging from Mexican fare and dim sum to cosy gastropubs.

Regency Rhapsody

Tucked away one of London's most sought-after postcodes, this Georgian mews home has plenty of character and style. Within close proximity to many of London's main museums, spend your days soaking up the culture and history of the area, or jump on the tube to be taken to London's main attractions in minutes. Kensington itself is home to an array of chic cafes and international eateries, which will prove very convenient if you fancy stopping for a bite to eat on the way home.

With an outdoor patio to the front of the house, wind down on summer evenings with a glass of wine while taking in the original architecture, before heading inside for a long hot bubble bath. Wind down on the velvet sofa in the living space until it's time to get some rest in the comfortable beds.

Magenta Mews

Moments from Elephant and Castle tube station, this home provides a stylish city sanctuary. Inside, you’ll find thoughtfully designed rooms bring ease to daily living, while the private garden offers a sweet spot for summer afternoon drinks. It’s well equipped for families and couples with all the essentials you could need to settle in and make it your own. There is no private parking available here, but it’s just a short walk to the nearest shops, restaurants and cafes. Plus, the close proximity to the tube station means its easy to get across London. 


The Wilder Beauty

We were bowled over by this apartment's location, just over a fifteen-minute walk from The Oval cricket ground. It has been the home of Surrey County Cricket Club since it was opened in 1845 and is a regular venue for test match cricket. 

If you're stumped for other places to go in the area, then head to Beaconsfield Contemporary Art (seven minutes on foot) – there's a lovely vegan café here too. Or one of London's best-loved attractions, the London Eye, is under a thirty-minute walk. History lovers, on the other hand, can visit the Imperial War Museum, a twelve-minute stroll away. It's the same walking distance to the Beefeater Gin Distillery, where you can take a tour or stop off at one of the many restaurants on the doorstep of this belter of a home. 

Relax on the sunny balcony with a drink in hand – we were hit for six when we saw the vistas over the capital's skyline. The living space is light and bright, thanks to its large patio doors, allowing light to flood in. After all that exploring, have a soak in the bath and then relax on the comfy sofa. This place is the perfect pad for a couple or solo traveller looking to take advantage of all that London has to offer.


Bowled Over

Steam Room

This striking home is one-of-a-kind. The sprawling townhouse – spread over four floors – is within walking distance of Battersea Park, and just a twenty-minute stroll to the V&A and the Natural History Museum. It’s got everything you might need for a comfortable stay in London, including a shower steam room, a living room bar, and a garden. The main bedroom even has a balcony. A dumb waiter helps you transport meals from the basement kitchen – equipped with instant boil taps and a wine fridge – to the dining space. This is an attractive and practical London home.
