This colourful and quirky home feels a bit like stepping into the pages of a Lewis Carroll novel – full of charm and unexpected details. The open-plan kitchen and colourful dining area are perfect for entertaining and the third bedroom with a sofa bed features a nifty little table that doubles up as a desk. The home is tucked away into a residential Hampstead street, a few minutes' walk from the neighbourhood's bustling restaurants and bars, and a five-minute walk from the nearest tube station, so reaching the rest of London is easy. With its imaginative interiors and convenient location, this is no ordinary London stay.

Home truths
One guest will be sleeping on a sofa bed here. It's in the third bedroom, so they'll have the whole space to themselves.
You must be 21 years old or over to book this home.
The host requests that you follow some specific cleaning protocols here, as the marble and stone are bespoke and need to be handled with care.
A cleaner visits the home for three hours every Saturday. If your trip falls within this time, the cleaning is complimentary.
Two of the bedrooms are short on wardrobe space here, so we'd recommend packing light.
If you're travelling for work, you won't find a dedicated desk here. However, there's a small table in the third bedroom that doubles up as a laptop-friendly workspace.

Local guide
About Hampstead
Hampstead is pretty irresistable. It's not right in the centre of London but it's a real oasis to come back to at the end of a day of hectic sightseeing and there's plenty to explore here in its own right. Your neighbours will be a mix of affluent intellectual types: London's top psychiatrists, book publishers, writers etc. They are attracted by Hampstead's village atmosphere, vast array of characterful period houses, independent shops and restaurants and, last but by no means least, the delights of the vast green expanses of Hampstead Heath, with its much-loved wild swimming ponds.
