Step away from the din of the city and into the bright and tranquil space of this luxurious London home. Complete with state-of-the-art furniture, rustic wooden floors, and bold, artistic decor, this spacious home offers an eclectic, modern style. Admire the host's collection of international contemporary art or thumb through the fantastic array of design books. It will take a while to browse all the treasures here, but when you have, there's plenty more to captivate out and about. This location in Shaftesbury Avenue is fantastic – take in a show at one of the many theatres right on your doorstep. Or, it's just a five-minute stroll to Covent Garden with all its street entertainers, restaurants and bars or head to Soho, a ten-minute walk away.

About The West End
The West End is about as central as it gets, hundreds of restaurants and bars on your doorstep and you might even see the lights of Shaftesbury Avenue (London's Broadway) blinking through your curtains. It's certainly conveniently located for flopping into bed after seeing a show, but be warned you will be sharing the area with quite a lot of tourists and you won't find many proper Londoners or signs...
