Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
A compact but considered London base, this studio apartment offers something many city-centre stays can't – outdoor space, with both a terrace and a balcony to retreat to between plans. Inside, the sleeping area is comfortable for two, with laundry facilities that make longer stays easy. Kensington Gardens are around a twenty-five-minute walk, a proper urban escape when you need it, and the King's Road is also within strolling distance for upscale shopping and dining. It's a practical, well-placed perch for exploring one of the world's great cities at your own pace.

Home truths
The apartment is on the first floor and there is no lift in the building, so you will be carrying luggage up the stairs on arrival and departure.
At 21 square metres, this is a compact studio designed for two – ideal if you plan to spend most of your time out exploring London, but worth bearing in mind if you are looking for a lot of living space.
Tenancy viewings may occasionally take place during your stay. Your host will give around 24 to 48 hours' notice when one is scheduled, so you won't be caught off guard.

Local guide
About Earl's Court
Kensington’s more down-to-earth neighbour, Earl’s Court is a well-rounded base to explore West London – and beyond. Relaxed restaurants, traditional pubs and leafy side streets characterise the neighbourhood. Make sure you visit The Troubadour, an iconic music venue that hosted Jimi Hendrix, Bob Dylan and Joni Mitchell in its prime. You’re more likely to walk in on a lowkey jazz session these days, performed under a decades-old collection of instruments...

On Gloucester Road, you will find the Stanhope Arms, a traditionally decorated pub with a great range of ales to choose from. The perfect place for a quick drink after a long day of exploring.
