About this property
South Kensington Period Retreat
Stay in the heart of South Kensington in a bright apartment that pairs grand period character with contemporary comfort. Ornate ceilings, decorative wall panelling and tall windows make the home a memorable London base for exploring the neighbourhood’s museums, restaurants and parks.
Set on the first floor with lift access, the apartment accommodates up to five guests across two bedrooms and a double sofa bed in the living area. One bedroom has a king-size bed and the other a double bed. There is one bathroom with a shower over the bath.
The generous living area brings together dark wood floors, comfortable grey sofas, blue armchairs and warm gold accents beneath beautifully detailed ceilings. There is room to relax or enjoy a meal at the dining table. The kitchen adds a cheerful touch with blue cabinetry and modern appliances, including a washing machine, while the bedrooms offer calm, softly furnished spaces to unwind.
Make yourself at home! You'll have full access to the entire flat, ensuring a comfortable and enjoyable stay. We've provided fresh linen, cosy bed sheets, and luxurious toiletries for your convenience. If you have any questions or need recommendations, feel free to reach out.

South Kensington is one of London’s most rewarding neighbourhoods to explore on foot. Spend a day at the Natural History Museum, the Science Museum or the Victoria and Albert Museum, then head towards the Royal Albert Hall and the open spaces of Kensington Gardens. Exhibition Road and the surrounding streets offer plenty of cafés and places to pause between visits.
For dinner close to home, try CERU for Eastern Mediterranean dishes, or visit the Anglesea Arms for a classic South Kensington pub meal. Kensington High Street offers more choice, including Dishoom Kensington and the Builder’s Arms.
South Kensington and Gloucester Road Underground stations are each around a five-minute walk away, and both serve the Circle, District and Piccadilly lines. Earl’s Court is a little further on foot. These connections make it easy to reach the West End and other parts of London.
