A stylish, state-of-the-art home set on a serene mews street in Bloomsbury, this two-bedroom apartment is the perfect choice for anyone looking for a peaceful corner that's close to the action. The interior is decorated in a mid-century-meets-industrial style, with Crittall-style windows and doors, a minimalist kitchen and elegant furniture that's sure to appeal to the style-conscious. It's a theme that continues into the bedrooms, with exposed brick walls, ample built-in storage and an opulent en-suite attached to the master bedroom. One of the joys of Bloomsbury is that pretty much everything is within walking or cycling distance. There are plenty of hidden gems tucked away down backstreets and side alleys, too, including plenty of classic English pubs, cool coffee shops and a collection of lesser-known museums. Elsewhere, the nearby Brunswick Centre has an assortment of shops, an arthouse cinema and a Waitrose for stocking up on essentials. There's also plenty of green space nearby at Russell Square, Gray's Inn Gardens and Coram's Fields. Finally, the bars and restaurants of Clerkenwell and Exmouth Market are within a ten-minute walk, while Covent Garden and Soho are slightly further afield. If you don't fancy walking, or the weather isn't playing ball, Chancery Lane and Farringdon stations are around ten minutes from your front door.

Hot off the press, this apartment is a short stroll from Fleet Street. The Strand, the River Thames, the Royal Courts of Justice and the London School of Economics, along with the Tate Modern and the British Museum, are within walking distance too. Such an excellent location will mean this home will be subject to some city noise, but that's to be expected. Once a place for textile dying in the 15th century, this newly refurbished apartment, with a private lift, sits within an exclusive Victorian development. There's plenty of room for entertaining in the spacious open-plan living space, and if you need to work from home, the large dining table doubles up as a laptop workspace.

Charles Dickens Museum is a mere four-minute stroll, while the British Museum is just over ten minutes on foot. Top-ranking universities, such as the London School of Economics and Political Science, University College London and King's College, are all under a twenty-minute walk, as is the London Stock Exchange, Covent Garden and St. Paul's Cathedral. Or if you fancy an evening at the theatre, the West End is just over a twenty-minute saunter. Of course, there are plenty of fine restaurants and bars right on your doorstep. Set in a traditional English mews, this place has a chic industrial style. We love the large windows that let light flood in, as well as the engineered oak floors. We were really surprised by how quiet this abode is, given its locale. This home also has that oh so rare outdoor space – the balcony is ideal for having a pre-dinner glass of Champagne. There are various laptop areas for studying or working here too. Perfect for corporate guests, students, small families or friends looking to get the most out of London, this home really delivers.

When it comes to London neighbourhoods, some visitors are guilty of overlooking Farringdon, which is a pretty big sin in our books — not only is it excellently located between the bright lights of the city centre and the trendier East, but it's full of exciting restaurants, interesting museums and industrial architecture. It's also home to effortlessly cool apartments, such as this one.

In the open-concept living-kitchen area, light flows through the space thanks to windows on either end. The design is definitely Scandi in influence — clock the clean lines and preference for wood surfaces — but the abstract artwork stops it from feeling too identikit. Rather pleasingly for a home for two, the cobalt kitchen has a wealth of sleek surface space for whipping up romantic dinners, while the pristinely tiled bathroom has a tub that will surely sing to you after a long day on your feet.

Although the surrounding neighbourhood has a welcomingly quiet residential feel, some of the UK capital's most famous sights are only a short walk away — both The British Museum and St Paul's Cathedral will take you all of twenty minutes to reach.

Man About Town

This Chancery Lane apartment is close to Covent Garden, Leicester Square, and the theatres of the West End. Easy public transport adds to the convenience of this home, making it a splendid base for families and couples looking for a stress-free base in London. The apartment is in a Grade II listed building so boasts historic features including high ceilings, and also has all the modern amenities you might need for a comfortable stay. 

Chancery Charm

Wine Cooler

We'd be won over by this well-proportioned luxury flat regardless of the location, but the fact that it's in a converted period building in central London is mighty impressive. Upon entrance, guests will be greeted by an open space illuminated by tall windows on the far wall and pretty chandeliers. At the far end lies a gorgeous kitchen complete with quartz surface tops and Miele appliances. The large bedrooms both have plenty of storage space and a workspace, but it's the bathrooms that take your breath away with their frameless glass and suave grey tiling. Step out the front door and Lincoln's Inn Fields stands before you — here, there's a small square to wander about, tennis courts to book out and the inimitable Sir John Soane's Museum to look around. If a visit there gets you in the mood for more ancient artefacts, The British Museum is only ten minutes' walk up the road.

A Rake's Progress

Set in a period building overlooking Lincoln's Inn Fields square, this stylish home not only affords you plenty of space but also puts you in a prime position for exploring some of the capital’s most celebrated sights. Plus, Holborn Tube station is a two-minute walk. Ascend up the private lift to this elegant home. Inside, the sleek kitchen and breakfast bar will suit keen chefs of the group when you’re not out sampling the local restaurant scene. And, with a carefully curated living area to boot and a desk on hand should you be travelling on business, this apartment is a great choice for those after tranquillity and comfort in the heart of the city.

Dive into East Central London from this stylish penthouse, complete with a spacious wraparound balcony and rooftop views. Underfloor heating keeps you toasty from the moment you wake up, and the kitchen is more than well-equipped for whatever you're craving. That said, the surrounding area is chock-a-block with fantastic spots to grab a bite, from Exmouth Market to the array of Michelin-starred restaurants. Children and toddlers aren't permitted, but we think families with babies or older kids will have a blast. Whether you're visiting as a tourist or travelling for work, the home gym and study provide that added touch of practicality to help you settle right in.

Where the Good Times Start

You’ll find this modern pad nestled between Covent Garden and Holborn. Easy to access, courtesy of a private lift that opens into the apartment, it’s perfectly placed for friends or family on a London stay. It has everything you need to settle in, including a small kitchen and a dining table that doubles as a workspace. Location-wise, it’s a mere four-minute stroll to the iconic Covent Garden Market, where trendy shops, delicious eateries and street performers await. After a spot of culture? The British Museum and Royal Opera House are within easy walking distance, too. For everything else, Holborn Station is just three minutes away, making trips across the city a breeze. 

Covent Garden Gem

Located on a peaceful, traditional mews, you could be forgiven for not realising that this home is right in the middle of London. Its location in Bloomsbury, known for its literary connections and charming English heritage, makes this the perfect place for a small group who want to stay in the heart of the city. The home has been recently renovated, and the interior has a thoroughly modern vibe with a slight industrial feel, thanks to the exposed brick and large, black-trimmed windows. You'll love coming home to put your feet up on the huge blue velvet sofa, or cooking in the state-of-the-art kitchen, complete with two ovens and Schulte-Ufer cookware. There's even a little balcony, where you can sip your morning coffee in the fresh air – a true luxury in the centre of the city. Getting around is easy from here, with the British Museum just a fifteen-minute walk away and several independent coffee shops and boutiques to stop off at on the way. A little further along you'll find Oxford Street and, if you want to visit a different part of the city, simply hop on the Tube – Chancery Station is just over five minutes away. Plus, with blackout blinds, sound insulation and underfloor heating, you're virtually guaranteed a great night's sleep.

Back home, there's a vintage living area with a sofa bed for guests three and four. You’ll also find a compact kitchen and a comfortable bedroom here. That said, the star attraction is undoubtedly the terrace. Bursting with potted plants and an outdoor sofa, it's the ideal spot to unwind with a glass of wine in hand and West End views on the horizon.

It's a modern apartment with all the luxury mod-cons needed for a comfortable stay – there's plenty of space for groups of four adults with spacious bedrooms, two swanky en-suite bathrooms and an additional guest bathroom. We fell head over heels for the stylish living space with its plush sofas, fashion prints and timeless colour scheme. Located just off Chancery Lane and less than a five-minute walk from Holborn tube station, you are right in the thick of things here. Come evening, fix up a round of drinks in the sociable island kitchen to enjoy out on your private patio area, fitted with garden furniture and billowing plants, pre-dinner drinks go down a treat here.

Divine Harmony

Decidedly modern, this split-level flat caught our eye with its luxurious extras, industrial-chic design and super central location. Our favourite room is the glossy kitchen, which is decked out with all the amenities you'll need – double Siemens ovens, a humidity-controlled fridge, top-of-the-range cookware and even a Nordic Quooker boiling tap, just to name a few. We think keen chefs and amateur cooks alike will love rustling up a tasty breakfast or hearty dinner under the skylight. 

Both bedrooms are as comfortable as they are stylish – one even has access to a small, narrow patio – and the bathrooms are the definition of grand, with their lavish rainfall showers and polished marble walls.

The wooden table beckons sociable soirées over homecooked feasts when you’re not out discovering the local restaurant scene, while the pair of comfortable bedrooms beckon a peaceful night’s sleep. 
 
When it comes to exploring nearby, you’ve got a wealth of cultural hotspots from which to choose, including The Postal Museum (an eight-minute walk), the Charles Dickens Museum (a twelve-minute walk), as well as the British Museum and the London Museum (both a twenty-minute walk).

Sip an espresso in an independent coffee shop, then check out cultural offerings like the Charles Dickens Museum (three minutes away), before grabbing a pint of ale in a local English pub. Right in the heart of this urban playground, this home is sleek and sophisticated, taking inspiration from industrial-style decor. We love the soft colour palette of creams and pale pinks, with the light-grey brickwork of the exposed wall offering that urban edge. Three huge windows illuminate this stylish living space, and you can also pop out to the private balcony from here. Take a gin and tonic outdoors while you peruse the city streets below. High-end amenities are standard here – luxurious, hotel-quality linens, rainfall showers, and underfloor heating make this a special stay. While the kitchen has everything you need and more, we recommend taking a nine-minute walk to your local restaurant hotspot – Exmouth Market. This foodies’ paradise is sure to get your taste buds tingling.

Urban Bloom

Tucked away down a quiet mews street, this modern apartment is overflowing with contemporary swagger. The open-plan living space makes socialising easy, whether you're watching a film on the cosy sofas or sharing a bottle of wine around the dining table. Cooking is anything but a chore in the bespoke kitchen, with its NEFF appliances and glossy worktops. And, with three lush bedrooms (all with luxe en-suites), everyone will have a private space to retreat to after a long day, and nobody will ever need to queue for the loo. We love how bright it is here, and the sleek design only adds to the roomy feeling. But what we love most is the location. Bloomsbury is known as London's literary hub, so bookworms will be right at home browsing the independent bookstores and following in the footsteps of icons like Virginia Woolf and Charles Dickens. Pick up a coffee from a local cafe as you make your way towards The British Museum, a thirteen-minute walk away, followed by a pint of ale and delicious pub grub at the many traditional taverns nearby. Plus, there are three tube stations within walking distance, so you'll be incredibly well-connected to the rest of the city.

It's mere minutes away from Russell Square and the famous British Museum, while a short saunter will bring you to the hustle and bustle of Soho and Oxford Street. With its soothing colour palette, and this apartment provides a welcome relief from the buzz of the capital. Spread over two floors, we love how bright and light-filled the living area is, while the terrace is the perfect peaceful spot for an afternoon cup of tea, or an evening glass of wine.

Please note all stays of 8 nights or more include complimentary weekly cleaning, linen changes and replenishment of toiletries.

A Lofty Blue

Barbeque

When it comes to staying in London, there are countless areas to consider, however, it doesn’t really get any better than the West End, with its vibrant restaurants, world-renowned theatres and iconic nightlife – and this beautiful townhouse will offer you a chance to make the most of it all, while at the same time enjoying the peace and tranquillity of this urban oasis. 

Let yourself be embraced by the welcoming ambience of this space, with its plush sofas, sleek furnishings and gorgeous plants dotted about. The huge window overlooks a private courtyard and it lets in streams of natural light which gently flood the lounge area – settle in for an evening of movies and conversation with your loved ones and enjoy a lovely homemade supper at the elegant dining table. The modern, well-equipped kitchen will make rustling up delicious meals a breeze, and you can also opt to dine outdoors on the patio, where there’s a barbecue at your disposal too. 

After a sparkling West End show or a day of shopping, relax with an indulgent bubble bath in one of the luxurious bathrooms and head over to the land of sweet dreams, which awaits you courtesy of the lovely bedrooms, each featuring a comfy bed and an ensuite bathroom. 

Outside your home, you’ll find yourself just moments away from all the excitement of Soho, the fantastic shops and market stalls of Covent Garden, and the leafy squares of Bloomsbury – all within a fifteen-minute walk away.
