Sharing is Caring
Sharing is Caring, Plum Guide home in London
Click to book Sharing is Caring now: from £185 per night If you’re looking for a house with creative flair, this is it. Set in hip Stepney Green, in the east end of London, it’s just an eight-minute walk to the tube station of the same name. In this spacious townhouse, the lounge is a warm space with wooden floorboards and furnishings, along with colourful artworks on the walls. Your host has impeccable taste in art, ranging from traditional Japanese pieces to framed art nouveau tiles – we love this eclectic mix. Another bonus is your private, leafy back garden. You can dine out beneath the pergola in complete serenity. But if the English drizzle does make an appearance, head into the bright conservatory, should you be staying in for dinner. Or if you’d like to eat out in the local area, choose from many restaurants, street markets, and delis. Later in the evening, try an ale at one of the 17th-century pubs. While strolling around the area is delightful, why not hop on a city bike from the dock at the station. Explore central London via the cycle superhighway, or stick to East London spots like lush Victoria Park, just a nine-minute ride from home. Sleeps up to 4 | 2 Bedrooms | 3 Bathrooms
Vida Verde
Vida Verde, Plum Guide home in London
Click to book Vida Verde now: from £292 per night Vida Verde’s rooftop terrace is fantastic. We’re not going to lie, it doesn’t come with the best of best views, but we like that it’s equipped for having a good time – both summer and winter. The home itself also sets the scene for socialising, whether it’s cooking up a storm in the kitchen or over dinner. The immediate area is incredibly vibrant. Other than boasting several restaurants, coffee shops, and bars, you’ll also find plenty of independent boutiques and cool brunch spots. Sleeps up to 4 | 2 Bedrooms | 2 Bathrooms
The Locksmith
The Locksmith, Plum Guide home in London
Click to book The Locksmith now: from £374 per night The Locksmith has an industrial feel with a large, open-plan living area, panelled glass windows and interior columns. However, the herringbone flooring and recessed ceiling lights give it a smarter edge. Contemporary rather than cosy, we would recommend this home if you're not fussed about a traditional homestay and like your spaces fresh and uncluttered. The adjoining balconies, to both the living room and the bedroom, are an added bonus for providing coveted outdoor space. Located in Clerkenwell, we think this spot will suit both tourists and business travellers. Sleeps up to 4 | 2 Bedrooms | 3 Bathrooms
Paint By Numbers
Paint By Numbers, Plum Guide home in London
Click to book Paint By Numbers now: from £145 per night This charming new-build home is equipped with a modern bathroom and a large, sleek kitchen. Guests also have the added bonus of a balcony and big windows, which both let in tonnes of natural light and create a bright and welcoming living space. Brilliantly located just one minute from London Fields and two minutes from the train station, you will have easy access to all of London’s favourite sites. If you’d rather enjoy the local scenery, you’ll be pleased to hear that eateries, cafes, and other great activities are abundant in this lived-in neighbourhood. Sleeps up to 2 | 1 Bedroom | 1 Bathroom
Dalston Darling
Dalston Darling, Plum Guide home in London, UK
Click to book Dalston Darling now: from £500 per night Fit for purpose, this modern suite is perfect for city dwelling. Part of a brand-new building, you can expect all the latest amenities as part of this East London property. Floor-to-ceiling windows flood the space with natural light that picks out the rich tones of the wood floors and the bright pop of colour added by the curved velvet sofa. The open-plan suite creates a spacious and inviting setting – wall partitions and the L-shaped layout help section off different living areas that flow into one another. While you’re here, be sure to check out the building’s communal areas on your way back from exploring Dalston, one of London’s trendiest neighbourhoods. Sleeps up to 2 | 1 Bedroom | 1 Bathroom
