Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Settle in at this stylish home in the heart of London. This is an ideal locale for sightseeing – Hyde Park and Kensington's world-class museums are within walking distance, while Earl's Court Station is just around the corner for easy access to the rest of the city. After your adventures, you can unwind in the light-filled living area or retreat to one of the cosy bedrooms – the second even has a desk if you plan to work from home. Or, on sunny days, pad out to the wrought-iron terrace and enjoy an aperitif in the sunshine.

Local guide
About Earl's Court
Kensington’s more down-to-earth neighbour, Earl’s Court is a well-rounded base to explore West London – and beyond. Relaxed restaurants, traditional pubs and leafy side streets characterise the neighbourhood. Make sure you visit The Troubadour, an iconic music venue that hosted Jimi Hendrix, Bob Dylan and Joni Mitchell in its prime. You’re more likely to walk in on a lowkey jazz session these days, performed under a decades-old collection of instruments...

Cosy up for a bite at the Troubadour
Soak up music history in this legendary venue & coffee house that's played host to the likes of Bob Dylan & Jimi Hendrix. Still famous for great food, coffee & regular live gigs in the basement club.
Ale At The Stanhope
On Gloucester Road, you will find the Stanhope Arms, a traditionally decorated pub with a great range of ales to choose from. The perfect place for a quick drink after a long day of exploring.
Walk on by...
We challenge you to walk past Fait Mason and resist the call of the cupcake or the smell of fresh brewed coffee from 8am most mornings.
