Nestled on a quiet red-brick road, just behind Kensington’s bustling high street, this period home is a wonderful base to explore London for couples and small families alike. The bright apartment seamlessly combines its traditional features with modern luxuries – hello wine fridge, and is in the centre of all the action. The luxury department stores of Harrods and Harvey Nichols are less than a ten-minute walk from the door, while in the opposite direction you’ll find the magnificent Victoria & Albert Museum and Natural History Museum. Or why not hop on the tube just minutes away and discover another corner of this electrifying city. Please note all stays of 8 nights or more include complimentary weekly cleaning, linen changes and replenishment of toiletries.

About Knightsbridge

Opulence is the name of the game in Knightsbridge. This is London at its most grand and lavish: an area where many of your neighbours think nothing of picking up their daily groceries at Harrods and taking their dogs for a walk in Hyde Park before breakfast. Ideally located for exploring many of central London's key sights, Knightsbridge is also a mecca for high-end shopoholics. Thrifty types should look elsewhere!
