Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
This contemporary townhouse offers an ideal base for family or friends on a London stay. Set across four floors, there’s plenty of space for everyone to spread out here and enjoy some quiet time, and the bright, colourful decor will make you feel at home in no time. Granted, as a party of eight, two people will sleep on the sofa bed in the reception room, but we like the flexibility this gives to the home. You may also hear some train noise as you’re not far from King’s Cross Station here – the benefit being, if your sightseeing wish list isn’t within walking distance, trips across the city are a breeze.

Local guide
About Bloomsbury
Bloomsbury has got it all. Steeped in literary history (this is where Virginia Woolf and her pals used to live), filled with beautiful townhouses and some of the most delightful garden squares in London. It has some great pubs, and is home to one of London's most-loved street of independent shops and restaurants, the utterly charming Lamb's Conduit Street. The British Museum is on your doorstep and Oxford Circus is a ten minute walk away. Need we say more?
