Photos and Description of the Knightsbridge vacation apartment rental
Apartment, 1 Bedroom, 1 Bath, (Sleeps 3-4)

SPECIAL OFFERS AVAILABLE ACROSS ALL SEASONS - CONTACT US FOR MORE DETAILS!

This Kensington apartment is ideal for a vacation in London; walk to Museums such as the Victoria and Albert, Natural History Museum, Science Museum, walk to the Royal College of Music and Royal College of Art, walk to Kensington Palace where Princess Diana lived. Attend concerts at the Royal Albert Hall or walk through Kensington Gardens direct to Harrod’s for shopping.

The tube is four minutes walk. Most consider this to be the most convenient location to get anywhere in London. The tube is a direct line to Heathrow airport, to Westminster, the Houses of Parliament, the London Wheel, Piccadilly, the Theatre District, Green Park and Buckingham Palace, the Tower of London AND St. Paul’s -- no transfers! You couldn’t ask for a more convenient location. Located on a beautiful, quiet street, guests can't believe they are in central London.

Enter the apartment from the side entrance to this old Victorian home. Find a glass-covered passageway where you can store your suitcases and enter to a small entryway.

Straight ahead is the sunny living room which overlooks the award-winning front garden from two large windows. Decorated in pale creams combining antiques with modern furniture, find a comfortable and welcoming home. The apartment measures approximately 640 square feet and is a study in efficiency and comfort!

The comfortable sofa faces a decorative Victorian fireplace with two armchairs facing it. The sofa is new and was made for us in Italy. It converts to two single beds at night, a handy option for adults and families. It measures six feet long, handy for taking naps on sunny afternoons.

On the right side of the living room is an old French table that seats four. The kitchen is around the corner.

Find a flat screen TV above the fireplace, with multi standard DVD player so you can bring your favorite movies…or choose from our selection. A stereo with CD player is in the bookshelves. Flanking the fireplace are two antique-style tables from France, perfect for setting up your computer and checking emails. There is freee high speed wireless internet.

Walk thru to the fully-equipped open kitchen. The birch cabinets are highlighted by pretty granite countertops in gray and pale pink. There is every appliance and convenience you might need: frig/freezer, combination microwave/convection oven, dishwasher, toaster, coffee maker, espresso maker, pretty Italian pottery dishes and serving dishes. Contrasting with the granite countertops is the raspberry red backsplash, setting off the soft color of the cabinets.

The bathroom is next on the right. Tiled in pale beige, it features a long step-in shower with rainwater showerhead, sink and toilet, all tiled in pale beige. The bathroom can be accessed separately from bedroom or living room, a handy feature. We've thought of everything including nightlights in the hallway and bathroom so you can get up at night and not wake anyone.

Continue down the corridor to the large bedroom, decorated in blues and yellows, with a dual king bed that can be made into twin beds if you prefer. There are 3 closets, excellent light and in one of the large closets you’ll find the Miele washer and separate dryer.

We’ve installed a separate flat screen TV and multi standard DVD player so you can relax and watch TV from the bedroom. There is a beautiful antique daybed sits at the end of the bed for reading or relaxation during your stay.

The piece de resistance is next: find a set of french doors leading directly to the paved Italian-style patio garden. Guests love to sit out and enjoy relaxing here, or dining al fresco. It's difficult to describe all of the features of our apartment here, but feel free to go to our website to see more pictures. Straight ahead is a small glass conservatory for the exclusive use of our guests. Featuring charming red-checked cushions, you'll love spending time here to relax, have afternoon tea or cocktails at the end of a long day. The room is heated so you can enjoy it all year long.

The apartment location is arguably one of the best in London, near the famous ‘museum row’, near to Kensington Palace, antique shops and more. Surrounded by cafes, shops, supermarkets, restaurants, and stores. The tube is 5 short blocks with direct access to the Theatre District, St. Paul's, Tower Bridge, King's Road, Westminster Palace, the River, Knightsbridge, and most areas of central London. This is a very safe neighborhood, home to several well-known actors including Dustin Hoffman, to Lords and Ladies and even the American Minister, Number 2 to the US Ambassador!

This beautiful apartment makes a perfect home for you during your stay in London. Please look at the guest reviews on our Londonperfect website to read more!

Why The Owner chose Knightsbridge

The Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea is one of the loveliest and most sought-after areas in central London. Many Londoners would dream of living in this borough, which is home to some of the most famous neighbourhoods in London – Kensington, South Kensington, Notting Hill, Belgravia, Knightsbridge, Earl’s Court and Chelsea. These areas exude London charm with their rows of Victorian homes, peaceful garden squares and easy access to the beautiful Kensington Gardens and Hyde Park. Visit world-class museums in South Kensington, stroll along the Thames in Chelsea, find treasures along the Portobello Road Antiques Market in Notting Hill, shop the biggest names in fashion in Knightsbridge, imagine the royal life at Kensington Palace or spend a leisurely afternoon in Kensington Gardens. With some of the best shopping spots in London, classic pubs and great restaurants, you’ll enjoy all the best of the London lifestyle in Kensington and Chelsea. Reach all the top sites in London quickly and easily on the London Underground or by simply hopping on one of the classic double-decker London buses. We fell in love with this charming area of London, and we think you will, too!

What makes this apartment unique

With its peaceful setting and access to a lovely patio garden, you’ll enjoy a tranquil stay right in the heart of London. The location is fabulous, surrounded by restaurants, cafés, and bistros and close to Museum Row where you’ll find the Victoria and Albert Museum, the Natural History Museum, and the Science Museum.

You’ll also be just a 14-minute walk from the famous Harrods department store in Knightsbridge and the designer boutiques of Sloane Street. When you’re ready to explore the rest of London you’re five minutes from Gloucester Road Tube. This is one of the most convenient Tube stations in London since it’s located on the Circle and District Lines and the Piccadilly line, which means you can go direct to the Theatre District, to the Tower of London, Covent Garden, Piccadilly, St. Paul’s, Green Park/Buckingham Palace and other famous landmarks. Or catch one of the many double-decker red buses that stop around the corner from this London rental.

Cornwall

Submitted: October 25, 2011 Stayed: October 2011
"The Cornwall flat was more than it was advertised to be. After touring all day (most of it on foot) it was so wonderful to come to the flat and sink into the luxurious bed. It was conveniently located and the area felt so safe we walked around until later in the evening/night without fear. Madelyn and Philippe were very gracious hostesses and we had privacy but they were also accessible when we had questions. We will definitely stay there again for our next trip to London."

Cornwall!

Submitted: September 3, 2011 Stayed: August 2011
"We had a wonderful stay. The Cornwall was so convenient to the pastry shops, markets and tube.

It was a two minute walk through a lovely neighborhood to everything. The patio was perfect

to come back and have an cup of tea. Thanks for a great time and we look forward, in a year or two,

to staying in one of your Paris apartments."



Tessie was so helpful and everyone should use your driver. It was so nice not to have to deal

with luggage and directions after a flight.

" We absolutely loved the apartment. Fantastic location on a beautiful street in Kensington. So easy to get anywhere with the tube stop just a couple of blocks away and plenty of taxis in the neighborhood. The apartment was great for a couple, but it could sleep up to two more. Everything was updated, clean, functional and very comfortable. We enjoyed the garden. What a treat to have that kind of private space in the middle of London. Madelyn and Philippe were fantastic. Such wonderful hosts, offering suggestions, getting us in touch with people who could help with anything. I would highly recommend this for a short or extended stay in London. Loved it."

"We recently stayed at the Cornwall apartment in London. It was the perfect location (nice restaurants, pub and markets), close to all transportation, safe and wonderful neighborhood (we used the Tube for all of our travels around central London without a hitch). After a long day of being a tourist it was relaxing to return to the apartment for the evening before going to the theater and dinner. Our hosts were very welcoming, the apartment was represented as described (we could not use the garden because it was too cold, but my wife loved a morning coffee in it anyway), really nice touches of a welcome basket, and touring information. Coordination with airport transfers helped a lot also. What a great find!!

London Perfect over delivered on our last minute reservation. It was a wonderful experience and enhanced our families first trip to London – we would use them again without a doubt.

Regards and Happy New Year."
