This lovely bolthole is a great choice for exploring London, located in the illustrious Earl's Court, and well-connected to the rest of the city. It's bright, open, and inviting, with gallery-white walls and contemporary touches. We particularly love the bookshelves walls, a modern characteristic that opens up the space in a beautiful way. From the chic chairs, to the huge mirror, to the rattan lampshade, there are so many stylish aspects to this home that make it so delightful. Despite being a studio, there is a clear distinction between the kitchen and the living space, which makes all the difference. And your host has managed to make excellent use of the space provided with a well-equipped kitchen that can accommodate you for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. When it comes to exploring London, you're just a two-minute walk from Earl's Court Station, where you have the whole of the city at your fingertips. But it's worth exploring the area you're in too. Kensington High Street is just a fifteen-minute walk away – a thoroughfare of shops, cafes, restaurants, bars, and more. The Design Museum is along here too, or you can venture to the Natural History Museum, also just a fifteen-minute walk away. When it comes to dinner, Earl's Court is teeming with locally owned restaurants for you to try out, or you can stop into a cosy pub for some classic pub grub.

Local guide
About Earl's Court
Kensington’s more down-to-earth neighbour, Earl’s Court is a well-rounded base to explore West London – and beyond. Relaxed restaurants, traditional pubs and leafy side streets characterise the neighbourhood. Make sure you visit The Troubadour, an iconic music venue that hosted Jimi Hendrix, Bob Dylan and Joni Mitchell in its prime. You’re more likely to walk in on a lowkey jazz session these days, performed under a decades-old collection of instruments...
