Leave all your worries at home and check into this impressive and luxurious penthouse in smart South Kensington. You can bring the whole family and totally chill out here. The staff can't do enough to make you comfortable – from arranging a chef and butler to take over the large kitchen to organising spa services – you can even opt for a driver to chauffeur you around. We love the balcony with rooftop views over Kensington – it's the perfect spot for a glass of wine. The décor in this apartment is stylish and luxe with lots of stripes and geometric patterns, sumptuous beds and marble tiles in the bathrooms. If you're in the mood to live like royalty in a plush penthouse – this is the Plum home for you. Out and about, it's just a five-minute saunter to the Victoria and Albert Museum and the Natural History Museum. For some peace and quiet, head to the beautiful Kensington Gardens or have a night at the Royal Albert Hall – both are just over a ten-minute walk away.
