This West Kensington pad will make you feel at home from the moment you walk in. Light and bright, with pops of colour, it’s an ideal base for family or friends on a London getaway. Sure, the second bedroom is a little cosy, but you’ll find everything needed for a comfortable night’s rest. And the cherry on top, of course, is the outdoor space – just the ticket when you fancy an alfresco aperitif. Location-wise, head to South Kensington and take your pick of iconic museums, or hop on the tube at West Kensington Station, a mere six-minute walk away, for trips further afield.

Local guide
About Kensington
Affluent and incredibly central, Kensington is a great base for exploring London on foot. Kensington Gardens and Hyde Park are on your doorstep and so are the Victoria and Albert, Science, and Natural History Museums. The streets are attractive and well maintained (grand, white stucco facades aplenty) and your neighbours will be a wealthy, conservative set. Lots of positives but probably not the place to let your hair down.
