Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Calm and green-feeling in the middle of London, this apartment looks out across the trees from both the living space and kitchen diner – an easy antidote to the city's pace. The main bedroom is quiet enough to make mornings slow. And when you're ready to head out, the location earns its keep: Covent Garden is an eighteen-minute stroll and Tate Modern is a thirty-minute walk away. A solid base for a pair wanting comfort at home and a great deal of London on the doorstep.

Home truths
The flat is on the first floor and reached by stairs only – there is no lift, so it may not suit guests with mobility considerations.
The double sofa bed in the living area is where your third guest will sleep – worth bearing in mind when booking for three, as the living space doubles as a sleeping space.
You're in a shared residential building, so noise needs to stay low after 10pm – worth factoring in if you're planning a late evening in.

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?
