1 room flat of 215m² in London

Sleep in the hugely comfortable, lavender-scented bed in this sunny apartment fitted out to the highest standard - and so centrally situated that you can walk, in 10-15 minutes, to Buckingham Palace.. Our aim has been to create a top-quality-boutique-hotel-experience in a unique self-catering apartment - while fitting it out for families, including with young children. This lovely apartment here is situated on the second floor of a Victorian period house (built in 1855). The apartment is interior-designed in soft grey, 'cashmere’ and mauve. The ‘mood’ lighting includes background light sources, which can be set to rotate as colour-change (see the photographs). With large traditional (yet brand new) double-glazed sash windows to front and rear, this bright apartment is flooded with light. South-facing into the afternoon sun, the spacious living/dining/sitting room is fitted with every convenience: unlimited Broadband; underfloor heating; substantial wall-hung SMART TVs (there’s one in the bedroom, too) wired into the WiFi network and with pre-paid access to Netflix; USB ports in power sockets; fold-out end-tables to each side of the custom-made sofa bed so you can ‘lounge’ while working at your laptop; a mango-wood dining table and four matching dining chairs (you can use this table as a desk); a stream-lined, well-fitted kitchen with all modern conveniences; ‘art’ photographs on the walls..A cot and high-chair (clip-on to the dining table) are provided - and the apartment sleeps four adults comfortably. Two sleep in the bedroom, where again there is ‘mood’ and colour-change lighting, a phone-charger/radio/alarm clock and USB charging points to each side of the bed. The mattress (150 cm – 5’0” – wide) is ‘bespoke’: firm and supportive while, at the same time, allowing the sleepers to feel as if they are floating on a cloud. In this cozy bedroom, a ‘hidden’ dressing table with hairdryer, as well as two concealed drawer units, clothes-hanging-space (more in the large cupboards in the sitting room), make the most of every inch of space. Another two people are accommodated in the sitting room on the highest quality double sofa bed . Our ‘Bedeck’ bed-linen is of the highest hotel quality. The bathroom is small but perfectly fitted, with a powerful shower over the bath, and atmospheric lighting and discrete ‘grab handles’ to make the bathing experience safe and secure for older guests. We also provide high quality bath-and-shower products, with two deep, fluffy towels and a face-cloth for each guest, as well as make-up remover pads and cotton-wool-balls.We believe we have thought of everything for your comfort (although we always welcome further suggestions!) The underfloor heating in the sitting room can be boosted by the central heating system, and there is a heated towel rail in the bathroom, and cooling fans for the summer months in both main rooms. A groceries-hamper, together with fresh bread, milk and butter, welcomes you. In the kitchen, dishwasher and washing machine tablets sit beside the relevant machines; a bone china dinner service, wine glasses and champagne flutes and a very good range of cookware and other food preparation tools make ‘eating in’ a delight. We even leave jotters, pens and pencils to capture sudden thoughts – or shopping lists . . .Cleaning and maintenance are to the highest standard. This is a real home-from-home with every detail attended to by the owners, who keep a sharp eye on the whole operation and are on hand to deal with any issue immediately. For bookings longer than ten days, we provide interim clean/linen/towel change free of charge,The street in which the house is located is in the sought-after ‘Pimlico Grid’ – a grid of residential streets laid down by the planner Thomas Cubitt beginning in 1825, and now protected as the Pimlico Conservation Area, and subject to elaborate traffic-flow-measures to inhibit through-traffic. The apartment is whisper-quiet. Within the Pimlico Village, in the district of Westminster (Zone 1), the apartment is a few minutes’ walk from excellent supermarkets, some of them open 24/7 and wonderful restaurants. The transport links are amazing.
