Situated in the iconic Brunswick Centre in Bloomsbury – you'll find an array of shops and restaurants, as well as a cinema literally on your doorstep. There are also some pretty garden squares to relax in here. Or visit The British Museum, a ten-minute stroll away, while King's Cross is under twenty minutes on foot. The brutalist architecture of the exterior of this home is a great sight in itself, being a Grade II listed building. After a busy day exploring all that the capital has to offer – take a seat on this stylish apartment's balcony with its views across the city skyline to St Paul's Cathedral. It's the perfect place to have a glass of Champagne. If the weather isn't so good, unwind in the winter room or read a book on the comfy sofa. We love the light-filled living space, and we were surprised by how quiet this place is, given its fantastic location. The cherry on the cake here is your host, who has put a lot of thought and detail into the home, including a delicious welcome hamper on arrival.

Home truths
The wi-fi connection is slightly on the slow side
The two single beds in the second bedroom can be joined to form a King size bed
It is no smoking in the apartment, on the balcony or in the communal areas of the apartment block
Your hosts kindly ask that you are mindful of your neighbours and to restrict noise on the balcony
Guests five and six would be on a sofa bed in the living room – there are blinds on the vertical windows but they do not fully blackout the light
There's no dedicated parking here, but with so much on your doorstep, we'd recommend leaving the car at home
There are a couple of supermarkets such as Waitrose and Sainsbury's in the centre below this apartment

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?
