This architect-designed home feels more like a country mansion than an inner London townhouse with its sprawling size and multiple, high-ceilinged reception rooms. It’s impressive from the moment you walk in and has an abundance of fun, quirky design elements to it, including a slide down the side of the stairs and a fireman’s pole that links the first floor to the kitchen. From the curved roof terrace – perfect for sunset cocktails – to the porthole windows and glass-walled, open-plan ground floor, this home is all about letting the good times roll while indulging in utter relaxation. It’s a fantastic place for a family or group of friends, with plenty of entertainment options, including an Apple TV, a projector, a PlayStation 3 in the separate games room and even a piano if you fancy a singsong. There’s also underfloor heating throughout and the kitchen has everything from a boiling water tap to a wine fridge. Factor in the garden with its private, tiled swimming pool and outdoor shower and you may not ever want to leave. Venture out, however, and you’ll discover Kensington's stunning sights right outside your door. Please note all stays of 8 nights or more include complimentary weekly cleaning, linen changes and replenishment of toiletries.
