As chic as its postcode, this pet-friendly pad makes a great base in the British capital. You'll find it on the cusp of fashionable Chelsea, just a short stroll from Earl's Court station and South Kensington's cafes, restaurants, and museums. After a day spent sightseeing, there's no better place to wind down than in the small private garden – it's a real treat for a home so central. Inside, the compact but cosy living area, sleek kitchen, and two snug bedrooms have everything you need for a stress-free stay.

Home truths
The bedrooms are on the smaller side, especially the second one. The main doesn't have a dresser, but it has decent wardrobe space.
This is a ground-floor apartment, and the bay window looks directly onto the street.
Although there isn't a desk here, the dining table doubles up as a laptop-friendly workspace.

Local guide
About Earl's Court
Kensington’s more down-to-earth neighbour, Earl’s Court is a well-rounded base to explore West London – and beyond. Relaxed restaurants, traditional pubs and leafy side streets characterise the neighbourhood. Make sure you visit The Troubadour, an iconic music venue that hosted Jimi Hendrix, Bob Dylan and Joni Mitchell in its prime. You’re more likely to walk in on a lowkey jazz session these days, performed under a decades-old collection of instruments...
