Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Located in the leafy Battersea, this home is the perfect union of traditional elegance with contemporary design. In the living room, you’ll find vintage furnishings and objets d’art collected from far and wide. It’s the ideal place to catch a quiet moment, with a well-thumbed book, tucked up on the squashy tufted armchair by the fireside. The open-plan dining space, with its wide skylights and quaint little orange tree, does a fantastic job of transitioning inside to out, especially when the French doors are opened wide. After an alfresco lunch in your private garden, discover your neighbourhood. A five-minute walk to Shillington Park’s shrub-lined, green spaces calls for Pimm’s on picnic blankets while Battersea High Street, with its cosy pubs and relaxed eateries, is mere minutes up the road. If you’re in the mood to pick up the pace, it’s less than a ten-minute train ride into central London from Clapham Junction station. Please note all stays of 8 nights or more include complimentary weekly cleaning, linen changes and replenishment of toiletries.

Local guide
About Battersea
Battersea has undergone a huge regeneration in the last decade, and with the transformation of the iconic Battersea Power Station into a bustling riverside quarter packed with bars, restaurants, independent boutiques and luxury fitness spots, Battersea is fast becoming the place to be. Popular amongst affluent young families, it's not hard to see what draws them in, with its very own 200-acre park boasting quaint cafes, an art gallery, a...

Go for Breakfast in Battersea Square
Walk towards this bustling little area lined with restaurants & cafés. Most have outdoor seating to enjoy the sun when it's out. Try Queenswood for a delicious fresh breakfast.

Get a dose of outdoors at Battersea Park
Take a stroll down to one of London’s largest (but lesser-known) green spaces. Visit the exotic animals at Battersea Children's Zoo & rent a boat for a paddle around the pretty lake.

Walk along Chelsea Embankment
With a view of Albert Bridge, the gorgeous, artist and poet filled houses of Cheyne Walk and the houseboats moored up, Chelsea Embankment is full of West London charm.

Fine dine at Gordon Ramsey's London House
Take a trip back to the 90s. This is fine dining as it used to be, with the staff spiffingly well-dressed and roses on the tables.

Have a night of Jazz & Drinks at Le QuecumBar
A hidden gem in downtown SW11. Legacy of Django Reinhardt and the players of his jazz manouche genre. Expect gypsy, vintage swing and some good ol' New Orleans jazz.

Ride a Clipper Boat
If walking isn’t your thing and you like to think you’re more nautical, hop on a Clipper boat at Plantation Wharf (oyster card friendly) and head East towards Greenwich.

Tuck into a hearty lunch at The Lighthouse
Battersea is well-known for its pub scene and a few minutes up the road you'll find this delightful family friendly pub that serves delicious food and a Sunday roast to die for.

Go to Bunga Bunga for Pizza
The Englishman’s Italian. This is a kitsch bar paying homage to the playful side of Italy, with party-animal PM Silvio Berlusconi as the poster boy. A riot at weekends.

Explore Battersea Boot
Experience a buzzing outdoor Sunday flea market with a wide variety of new, used, vintage, and antique goods. Enjoy the friendly staff, relaxed atmosphere, and great vibes that keep visitors coming back.

Unwind at the Prince Albert Pub
Just around the corner you'll find The Prince Albert. A favourite amongst the locals, this is the perfect place to have a beer or glass of wine and unwind after a long day in the park.

Get a taste of Argentina at Santa Maria del Sur
In this slick Argentinian restaurant it's all about the steak and choosing between a Mojito, cold beer or a bottle of wine to go with it.
