Leave behind the hustle and bustle of Covent Garden and enter an alternate reality. Bull Inn Court still bears the name of the pub that stood on this site until 1680, and while the inn might be long gone, its spirit lives on in the drinking, dining and entertainment on offer throughout the area. This luxurious and spacious apartment offers the ultimate in comfort and convenience close to London's glistening West End. Its open living space features a seating area, dining table and sleek kitchen that's perfect if you fancy a casual night kicking back in front of the TV. Both bathrooms are finished to a luxurious standard and have walk-in showers, while the en-suite benefits from the addition of a bathtub. A short stroll away is the Thames, where you can enjoy romantic riverside walks and take in the scenic views. There are a number of popular attractions within a five-minute walk including Somerset House, London Transport Museum, Covent Garden and several brilliant theatres. Covent Garden and the surrounding area also boasts an enviable selection of amazing bars and restaurants so you'll never be short of options if heading out for a drink or bite to eat.
