You'll find this cosy lower-level apartment situated in one of London's most prestigious addresses. Close to Kensington Palace, Hyde Park, and South Kensington's many museums, it's the perfect spot for first-time tourists and seasoned visitors alike. We love the sense of history here – the home was once owned by the Crown, and the road outside is still used by the King today for royal processions. Remote workers will appreciate the glass conservatory with a desk, while a small patio is an ideal spot for morning coffees or evening cocktails.

About South Kensington
South Kensington is probably most famous for being home to some of London’s top museums (The Victoria & Albert Museum, Natural History Museum, and Science Museum) and so you don’t need to wander far to see some of the city’s greatest treasures.
