A veritable kaleidoscope of colours, this home in the heart of exclusive Knightsbridge is a haven of rest and relaxation. From the moment you walk through the doors, you instantly feel this flat’s fun and imaginative character. Art lovers will rejoice at the gallery-like spread of canvases, sculptures and decorative ornaments while chefs of the group will delight in whipping up feasts in the funky tunnel-shaped kitchen. The living room dazzles with its array of colours, huge sofa and ornamental fireplace, but our favourite room is by far the conservatory off of the master bedroom. Take your pick of Acapulco-style chairs here and relax amidst the jungle of houseplants, reflected in the room’s mirrored brick wall. Waking up is a treat when it means getting to relax in the master bathroom’s soaking tub or strutting to the shower beneath the second bathroom’s lantern ceiling. With a constant carousel of things to see and rooms to relax in, we wouldn’t blame you for never wanting to leave your luxurious pad. When you do decide to venture out, however, you’ll find London’s iconic Harrods department store right outside your door and South Kensington’s world-famous museums less than a ten-minute walk away. With... your host happy to organise restaurant reservations, tickets to London's hottest events and fridge fills, you'll feel on cloud nine in this slick, stylish home.

Local guide
About Knightsbridge
Opulence is the name of the game in Knightsbridge. This is London at its most grand and lavish: an area where many of your neighbours think nothing of picking up their daily groceries at Harrods and taking their dogs for a walk in Hyde Park before breakfast. Ideally located for exploring many of central London's key sights, Knightsbridge is also a mecca for high-end shopoholics. Thrifty types should look elsewhere!
