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.

About Bayswater
Nestled between Notting Hill and Hyde Park, Bayswater is a great base for exploring everything that Central London has to offer, yet maintains a tight-knit, neighbourhood feel which sets it apart from surrounding areas. Grand white stucco terraces and communal garden squares make up the majority of housing in the area, so architecture aficionados will be in for a treat.
