Situated in the heart of Barnes, this home is perfect for a family or group of friends on a London stay. There’s plenty of space to spread out here, and with all bedrooms boasting en-suites, there will be no queue for the bathroom in the mornings. In the city on business? There’s even a dedicated office space, making remote work a breeze. We love the open-plan kitchen diner spilling out onto the landscaped garden – just the ticket when you want to whip up a family feast. Locally, visit the high street, packed with independent shops and restaurants, or hop on the train, ten minutes away on foot, to travel into London in twenty minutes.
