A picture-perfect London townhouse, it's no surprise that this Georgian home is brimming with traditional features. High ceilings adorned with intricate cornices, large sash windows flooding the rooms with soft light, not to mention the decorative fireplaces in almost every room – it's clear that the hosts have an eye for design and passion for quirky character. It's the perfect family pad – parents can kick back in the lounge while kids let loose in the upstairs bedroom packed with toys and books to keep them occupied. The lush roof terrace is also a winner – day or night, you'll love sitting out there with a glass of bubbly and listening to the sounds of the city. Home cooks can let their culinary skills run wild in the sleek kitchen, which comes with everything you need to whip up a delicious meal or two. And the location couldn't be more central. Situated in Connaught Village – a sought-after pocket adjacent to Hyde Park – this area is home to charming cafes and eateries, plus bustling Oxford Street is only ten minutes away. Please note all stays of 8 nights or more include complimentary weekly cleaning, linen changes and replenishment of toiletries.
