Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
This bright home perfectly encapsulates Clerkenwell charm. From the stained glass windows to the chandeliers and mid-century furnishings, this home is a designer's dream. Grab a book and unwind on one of the leather armchairs (there are a couple to choose from) surrounded by modern art pieces, or enjoy a coffee in the courtyard garden. Upstairs, the master bedroom is more akin to a Georgian manor house with its heavy curtains, ornamental fireplace, and antique sleigh bed – and you can't miss the open bathroom with its freestanding bathtub. The desk is perfect if you're planning to catch up on emails during your stay, and afterwards unwind in the fitness room. You're just a short walk from Exmouth Market and the restaurants around King's Cross station, so there are plenty of options for eating out – but you'll be equally happy cooking in the sleek kitchen. Please note all stays of 8 nights or more include complimentary weekly cleaning, linen changes and replenishment of toiletries.
