Groups of friends will have plenty of space to stretch out in this five-floor townhouse. We love the jewel-toned sitting room, with its bay window and sumptuous sofas, though the main suite upstairs (complete with a rolltop bath) is also a favourite. Even better, a walled garden out back is the perfect spot to sip sundowners and discuss your itinerary. If sightseeing is on the cards, Tower Bridge and the Tower of London are about thirty minutes on foot, while nearby Borough Market is a can't-miss for foodies. The nearest Tube station is just over a ten-minute walk away – or there's a parking space available if you'd prefer to drive. Please note all stays of 10 nights or more include complimentary weekly cleaning, linen changes and replenishment of toiletries.

Local guide
About Walworth
Just behind the bustling Elephant and Castle Roundabout, you'll find Walworth Road, the main throroughfare of Walworth. The joy of this street lies in the fact that despite being so close to the centre of London it has somehow – so far – managed to avoid full-blown gentrification and Starbucksification. It’s a brilliantly diverse stretch of road, teeming with life and colour: spit-and-sawdust pubs next to Ghanaian restaurants, tailors next...
