Ideally located in the heart of South Kensington, this handsome apartment is just the ticket for a couple or solo traveller looking to be within easy reach of London’s cultural hotspots. Housed in a neoclassical-style building from the 1870s, there’s a definite air of luxurious sophistication to this bright and welcoming spot. With its hardwood floors, elegant striped wallpaper and sash windows, you’ll have no trouble making yourself at home in its bright living room or getting a dreamy night’s sleep in the neutral-toned bedroom. You’ll relish waking up to Kensington views and heading to the shared gym for an invigorating start to the day, while the bathroom’s Jacuzzi tub provides a relaxing end to any evening. When you’re not chilling out in your snazzy city pad, go out and explore the sights. You’re just a four-minute walk from the Natural History Museum and an eight-minute stroll from the Science Museum and V&A. Hyde Park’s leafy boulevards are also a fifteen-minute walk from your door, while Harrods is twenty minutes away on foot.
