Positioned in an enviable location, a 2-minute stroll from Hyde Park, this lovely white stucco-fronted apartment has easy access to Little Venice canals and Paddington Station. A leisurely walk across the expansive greenery of Hyde Park takes you to the myriad museums of South Kensington – the V&A, Natural History, and Science Museum. There are plenty of chic eateries, bars and cafés on your doorstep, but the natural minimalism and calming interior of this apartment might invite you to spend an evening in. Raw wood accents and houseplants brighten up the pristine white walls. The dining table sits in a sunny bay window, offering the perfect spot for breakfast before a big day out. Just off the master bedroom, French doors open up to a tiny, flower-filled balcony with a couple of bistro chairs to take in the sun and a twisting spiral staircase that leads to a shared roof terrace – a rarity in central London.

You’ll have everything you need in this ground-floor apartment – high ceilings, a full kitchen and a spacious bedroom all await you here.

This city centre pad is in a prime location, with Hyde Park, Kensington Gardens, and London’s famous Oxford Street all within easy walking distance. And Edgware Road Tube station is just a two-minute stroll away, so exploring the rest of the capital is a breeze. We love the floor-to-ceiling windows here, and the private balcony with its urban views is a welcome addition. We think this contemporary bolthole will suit a couple of couples wanting easy access to the city and a comfortable place to crash.

With Paddington Station a couple of streets away and the green expanse of Hyde Park a five-minute walk, this pristine apartment enjoys the best of central London. The surrounding streets are packed with global eateries and local pubs, and the Tube can whisk you into central London in around ten minutes. Pebble-grey and muted inside, this apartment is an oasis in the city. There’s plush dining for eight people, and enough room for the whole group to spread out in the living room. Each bedroom has bags of space – a rarity this close to the centre of London. But we love the orchids and white roses that add a touch of class to the luxe rooms.

There are museums, restaurants and pubs on your doorstep, and you’re close to tube stations and bus stops if you want to go further afield.

Just steps away from Hyde Park, this home is ideal for a large group looking to explore London’s best attractions. Spend mornings wandering through the leafy park, perhaps with a picnic lunch in tow. With convenient public transit, you can be shopping on Oxford Street in just nine minutes, at the British Museum in seventeen and at Buckingham Palace in just twenty minutes. Of course, a nice stroll cutting through the park will get you to all these places and more in not too much longer. The home itself feels welcoming, with a warm wooden kitchen and plush leather sofas organized around a marble fireplace. There’s a large patio table, ideal for enjoying dinner or gin and tonics on nicer days. Plus, there’s a lot of bedrooms in this home for friends and family – and while common area space may run short, the dining table can squeeze in twelve. With this central of a location though, you’ll likely be out exploring most of the time – why not come home to somewhere bright, private, quietly luxurious and wonderfully comfortable.

Nestled in the heart of Paddington, this charming home promises a peaceful retreat away from the hustle and bustle of the city, yet with easy access to many key London landmarks. We love the seamless blend of rustic and modern this home provides – just bear in mind that at full occupancy, one guest will sleep on the sofa bed in the living room. Location-wise, you’re in for a treat. The lush greenery of Hyde Park is a mere ten minutes away on foot, or you can hop on the Tube at Paddington Station, a five-minute walk away, for trips across the city with ease. 

The Great British Home

Sonos

From the cosy lounge to the adorable Paddington Bear-themed bedroom, this mews flat has family-living written all over it. Although the design is a little more homely, we appreciated the warm, lived-in feeling. Kick off your shoes and make yourself right at home, rustling up meals in the kitchen (which is well-stocked with cookware), snuggling up with a book on the sofa and retreating to the bedrooms for an afternoon snooze. Everything you'll need for a relaxing getaway is taken care of – Netflix streaming on the smart TV, Sonos speakers in the living area and high-end toiletries in the bathrooms. Best of all is the location. Tucked away on a pretty street just a few minutes walk from Paddington Station, this area is excellent for exploring. Start the day with a stroll through Hyde Park (ten minutes on foot), wander along the canal in Little Venice (a twelve-minute walk away) or hop on the tube and journey around the city. Finish the evening off with a pint and delicious meal at one of the pubs nearby – there's at least three within walking distance, so you'll have more than enough choice.

Your host can also help organise child-friendly amenities and cleaning throughout your stay. 

Parkside Living

Home Cinema Setup

Minutes away from Paddington station, and boasting a big balcony, this charming apartment is a real home from home. Stylish and comfortable, it's in a period building and includes features like high ceilings and tall windows. Add in some super modern touches, like a sleek all-white kitchen and luxury bathrooms, and it's a pretty appealing prospect. The open-plan living space has built-in shelving, a cosy sofa for nights in front of the TV and a dining table for four in the window. Each bedroom has a dedicated bathroom, so there's no queuing in the mornings, and one opens to the balcony at the front of the house. Surrounded by some great places to eat and drink, you'll be spoilt for choice, and for days out think walks in Hyde Park and strolls around Notting Hill. Less than twenty minutes by tube to Leicester Square, the rest of the city is your oyster too.

Moments in the City

With a muted palette, wooden flooring and sloping skylights, it’s a peaceful space, which is exactly what you’ll need after a busy day exploring the delights of London. You’re well-positioned to enjoy those, with Hyde Park on your doorstep and Notting Hill’s characterful streets and legendary market just a couple of stops away on the tube.

Sleek, minimal-style furnishings create a modern first impression to the living room and the bedrooms are decorated in a pared-back style. When you’re not home, head out and explore the nearby sights. Hyde Park is a ten-minute walk away, while Kensington Palace is a fifteen-minute stroll from your doorstep. Notting Hill and Portobello Road are also easily reachable on foot in twenty-five minutes where colourful homes, quirky shops and countless restaurants wait to be discovered. 

Sophistication

Bathrobes

Housed on the upper floor of a historic London pub dating back to 1852, this characterful apartment offers a comfortable, relaxing base from which to explore the city.

You’ll immediately be transported back in time through the home’s original features, like the parquet floors, corniced ceilings and sash windows that bathe the whole space in light. We love the plump armchair that invites evenings over glasses of wine and the cosy dining nook that’s all set for intimate meals and sunny breakfasts alike. The bedroom is just as elegant with its ornamental fireplace and beautifully dressed king-size bed, while the bathroom beckons long, luxurious soaks under its rainfall shower. 

When you’re not soaking up the period atmosphere of your chic pad, go out and explore the nearby sights. You’re just a ten-minute walk from leafy Hyde Park, a fifteen-minute stroll from Little Venice and its waterside cafés and colourful Notting Hill is twenty minutes away on foot.


One for the Road

London is a city that isn't short of an art gallery or two and this apartment takes influence from some of these cultural institutions. Illuminated by natural light from the huge window at the far side of the living room, the white walls are covered with a huge range of colourful works and there are curios dotted about here and there, too.

In addition to this eye-catching decoration, the design is definitely contemporary in flavour, particularly the chic white leather sofa, transparent dining chairs and a minimalist kitchen heavy on the sleek surfaces. The mezzanine level adds another layer to this home — both figuratively and literally — and offers an office, as well as another cosy lounge.

Although the street on which this home resides is certainly residential, there's plenty to see and do nearby. The corner of the huge Kensington Gardens can be reached in only eight minutes on foot, while the vintage boutiques and cute brunch spots of Portobello Road take around five.

The Art Critic

If you're looking for a peaceful yet centrally located retreat in the capital, this is the perfect spot. Moments from the sprawling green of Hyde Park, the deluxe home is expertly placed for wholesome walks and urban exploration. 

Hop on the underground to explore the museums, wander through the glorious parks or find a bargain amongst the high-end stores of Knightsbridge. As well as snug furnishings and authentically British character, the home's appeal lies in its geographical dexterity – it caters to whatever is on your itinerary. 
 

 Once inside the the homely white walls, you won't believe you're moments away from the heart of London. The cottage-like home rests in a quiet mews, the only sounds you'll hear are the rythmical beats of a horse trotting past. Cosy and convenient, the home marries the serenity of the English countryside with city comforts.
 

 Enchanting pieces of art add artistic personality, complemented by the natural light that pours into the living room. Once sunset, the room transforms to an intimate den made for sleepy nights on the sofa.

Please note all stays of 8 nights or more include complimentary weekly cleaning, linen changes and replenishment of toiletries.

Forever New

If you're looking for a central London bolthole, this light-filled apartment fits the bill. Located just around the corner from Paddington Station, travelling around the city is a breeze from here, although there are plenty of sightseeing hotspots to explore on foot. Take your pick from the Victoria and Albert Museum, Natural History Museum, and Science Museum in South Kensington, or lose the crowds in leafy Hyde Park. Given the home's central spot, it's worth noting you'll hear and feel the distinctive underground rumble at this apartment. But that's all part and parcel of central London living.



Love from Paddington

Just steps from Hyde Park, this apartment is ideally positioned for the ultimate London getaway. Outside, you’ll find a diverse selection of restaurants, cafes and shops within walking distance, while the close proximity to Lancaster Gate tube station ensures smooth connections with the rest of the city.

Sweet Sunrise

Outdoor Fireplace / Firepit

Wake up to the chatter of ducks and watch majestic swans glide serenely by your window from your picturesque vantage point moored on Brownings Pool – named for the famous 19th-century poet Robert Browning, who lived nearby.

Despite this unique connection to nature, you're right in the heart of the city, surrounded by the hustle and bustle of Paddington, the glamourous townhouses of Notting Hill, and the leafy residential area of St John’s Wood – all steps away from your bow.

Your host is a set designer with an eye for aesthetics. In fact, her other boat even made it into a published book of the world’s best houseboats. In addition to its chic styling, this wide-beam barge comes equipped with everything you would expect of a modern home, with a couple of quirks to consider to ensure everything remains shipshape throughout your stay. However, in our opinion, these only add to the thrill. Think luxurious shepherd's hut in the centre of the city.

On sunny days, make the most of your privileged position and relax on the rooftop deck with a drink in hand, the envious glances of passers-by flowing like water off a duck's back. Alternatively, strike out along the towpath and explore everything this canalside stretch has to offer.


They Call Me the Wanderer

Spread over three floors, this stylish mews house not only affords you plenty of space but also puts you in a prime position to explore some of the capital’s most celebrated sights, including Hyde Park, Kensington Gardens and Little Venice.

With a trio of carefully curated bedrooms to boot and a cot on hand should you be travelling with little ones, this home is a great choice for a stress-free city stay. 


The Rose Mews

The rooms are simple, fresh and well suited to families or couples in search of comfort in a fantastic location. 


The Way Home

Ice Machine

Located just north of Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens, this sleek home makes a great first impression. Blending vintage charm and contemporary style, the art on the walls and double-height ceilings exude comfort. There's space to sit out on the cosy terrace with a drink or a light lunch, and you're never far from something to do when the mood strikes. Notting Hill is just minutes away on foot, along with several stations for hopping on the Underground and exploring London's best bits.

London Chic

Alarm System

Live the high life in this swanky penthouse apartment, located just a six-minute walk away from Paddington station. With its elegant grey and silver colour scheme, tall ceilings and hardwood floors, there’s more than a touch of luxury to this London pad. We love the kitchen’s vaulted ceiling punctuated by skylights and the intimate dining set with its plush chairs. The bedroom, too, is a sophisticated affair, sporting a similarly grey-toned palette and a decorative feature wall that gives it added characterful flair. The real star of the show here though is the rooftop terrace. Sit here with your morning coffee before going for a stroll through nearby Hyde Park (a ten-minute walk away), or settle in for sunset views over the city’s chimney tops, a glass of bubbles in hand. With Notting Hill just a fifteen-minute walk away and countless restaurants and bars on your doorstep, this posh penthouse is a treat for any traveller.

The Hyde-Out

DVD Player

Just around the corner from the beautiful Kensington Gardens and leafy Hyde Park, this stylish studio flat is in a prime locale. It's set on a quiet mews, tucked away from the busy streets, surrounded by quaint cafes, local delis and delicious restaurants. After a morning stroll around the park, coffee in hand, explore the rest of the city – Notting Hill is a short bus ride away (or a thirty-minute walk if you want to stretch your legs), while Regent Street, the West End and Covent Garden are easily reachable via the tube at Lancaster Gate (five minutes on foot). Back at home, kick off your shoes and rest weary legs on the gloriously comfortable sofa. We love the bold colours and original abstract artwork dotted around. It's cosy, bright, and best of all, whisper-quiet, so much so that it's hard to believe this flat is smack-dab in the centre of the city. If you're in the mood to cook, the cherry red kitchen has everything you need to prepare a delicious meal, while the daffodil yellow bathroom is stocked with White Company toiletries. Then, when it's time for bed, sink into the plush king-sized bed draped in crisp, luxury linens and drift off in utter peace.

Please note all stays of 8 nights or more include complimentary weekly cleaning, linen changes and replenishment of toiletries.

Overlooking a lush garden square in the heart of Bayswater, this two-storey apartment has high ceilings and space to sit outside with a cup of tea. While you won't find a TV here, a projector is on offer for a home cinema experience like no other. This, along with being pet-friendly and the range of free baby equipment available, makes it a great spot for families. While the only parking here is paid, you'll find several underground lines nearby, and the green expanse of Kensington Gardens is just a short walk away.

The Artist's Chalkboard

DVD Library

If space and quiet in London are at the top of your list, you've just found a pearl. This lovely home has plenty of both – a rarity this close to the city centre. It’s a two-minute walk to Paddington Station, putting all of London at your disposal. Or, stay in the area and explore Hyde Park (a ten-minute walk) and the global eateries and bars that fill the streets around Paddington. Back at the home, a big living room has more than enough room for the group across two sofas and armchairs, perfect to unwind after a day in the city. The full kitchen is separate and has everything you need to knock up a family meal – served at the long dining table. Traditional features like fireplaces in the bedrooms, gilded mirrors and bay windows keep things classy. We particularly love the little outdoor space, set up with a picnic-style table for four and perfect for an evening glass of wine.

Django

Against the backcloth of Bayswater, draped in boudoir prints, Queens Gardens III is dressed up to the nines. Contemporary textures and rich hues are teamed with a beloved old English theatricality, from the aged globe to the vintage typewriter.

Please note all stays of 8 nights or more include complimentary weekly cleaning, linen changes and replenishment of toiletries.

Quilted Luxury

Bicycles

Exuding refinement, style and sophistication inside and out, a very different stay awaits on-board this converted canal boat moored up in the Paddington Basin. It's a premium location in the unique public floating garden, just ten minutes from Little Venice. Back on land, go for a spin on the free-to-use bicycles, exploring nearby Edgware Road and leafy green Hyde Park – under a seven-minute cycle away. When you do return to your luxurious barge, you'll find sleek Scandi interiors with warm reclaimed timber walls. Compact but better equipped than many homes, this houseboat provides the ultimate boutique hotel experience – from the swanky freestanding bathtub to the chic breakfast bar. There are plenty of entertainment options too. Snuggle up with a movie in the cosy (inside) living space – complete with a cleverly positioned projector. Choose a book from the extensive collection – courtesy of independent publishers – and sink back into the egg-shaped swing seat in your unique outside living space (and don't worry, you can purchase all the books on-board if you're a few chapters short). It's the perfect setting for a romantic getaway in the city, with the spectacular rooftop dining area also ideal for entertaining friends and celebrating a special occasion. We absolutely loved it. 

The Merchant Houseboat

On the sixth floor of an apartment block in London, this home is a practical and comfortable spot to rest your head during a city break. The central location means you can expect some outside noise and children aren't permitted here, but we think it's a good choice for friends or colleagues. The only parking nearby is paid, but attractions like Hyde Park and the Sherlock Holmes Museum are within walking distance and you'll find plenty of transport links nearby to help you traverse London with ease.
