Situated in vibrant Vauxhall, this apartment is in a great location. Stroll to Tate Britain, Westminster Abbey, and Big Ben in under half an hour, or hop on the Tube at nearby Vauxhall Station to explore further afield. With room for a small group (and a sofa bed that sleeps two), this is a good pick for a family trip or staying with friends. Outside space is rare in London, so the private terrace is a real treat. It’s perfect for breakfast, barbecues, or drinks around the firepit. And it’s accessible from both bedrooms too, so you can step straight out to watch the city wake up.

About Vauxhall
Across the river from Pimlico and Westminster, Vauxhall has a lot going for it. Ignore the rather hectic and somewhat anonymous-feeling roundabout that greets you when you emerge from the tube station: just moments away are some of London's most characterful and special garden squares in London. Leafy Bonnington Square is completely charming - it is home to an incredibly good and ridiculously cheap vegetarian restaurant The Bonnington Cafe and...

History class at the Imperial War Museum
If everyone is old enough this is a fun way to learn about modern British history. Recently refurbished and with a lovely Cafe, it is one of the most popular museums in town.
Support the community chefs at Bonnington Café
This local gem is a must. Come here for cheap and cheerful homemade vegetarian & vegan meals prepared by local neighbourhood cooks who take turns sharing their international menus with adoring locals.
Grab a pint and a bite at the Black Dog Pub
This bustling corner pub has all you need in a local: great food, proper beers and a lively atmosphere. Reservations recommended, especially for their understandably popular Sunday Roast.
Get down with a Dirty Burger
With burgers as sloppy as the name suggests, DB have earned a name for themselves for producing juicy, loaded-with-flavour burgers served up from the arches beneath Vauxhall’s railway tracks.
Escape the city at Vauxhall Pleasure Gardens
Once Victorian ‘Spring Gardens’, the Pleasure Gardens today play host to a busy calendar of events from outdoor movie screenings to colourful lights shows. Great for a quiet picnic away from the city.
Enjoy a drink on the river at Tamesis Dock
Views to match any in London, but in the least pretentious setting. This river side barge bar is the perfect spot for a summer sundowner while watching Big Ben turn its lights on across the river.
Explore at Newport Street Gallery
With free entry and set in a Victorian warehouse, this showcase of the British art giant’s private collection gives the public a chance to explore guest exhibitions and classic modern art.
Discover the exhibitions at the Garden Museum
Set within the restored church of St Mary’s, burial place of the first great British gardener and plant-hunter, John Tradescant, this is historically significant, lush spot to visit.
Order tea and cakes at the tea house theatre
This quaint tearoom is set in an old Victorian pub overlooking the Pleasure Gardens. They serve English breakfasts, cakes and loose-leaf tea, but don't dare to ask for coffee.
Grab a drink with a view at The Rose
Set yourself down for a meal and a pint alongside views of the River Thames at this traditional Victorian pub in the heart of Vauxhall.
Explore Beefeater Gin Distillery London
