The charming, leafy streets around this central London studio are home to endless museums, galleries, cafés, bars and restaurants for all tastes. You’re in the Holborn neighbourhood, with the Charles Dickens Museum just around the corner and the vast collections of the British Museum a ten-minute walk away. Should you wish to access every landmark and iconic sight of London, Chancery Lane and Holborn tube stations are both a short stroll away. Inside, the windows are practically floor-to-ceiling, so you’ve got plenty of natural light during the day. A plush velvet sofa provides a spot to put your feet up at the end of the day and the teal and grey motif is both stylish and soothing. The kitchen may be compact, but the white units hide the essential utensils and appliances you need for self-catering. Though there's so much choice for dining out in the area, you may never open the cupboards.
